[Helicobacter pylori-associated pathology of oral cavity in children (clinical-laboratory study)].

As the result of the study of stomatological status indices in children with gastroduodenal pathology associated with Helicobacter pylori it was established that caries incidence in children did not depend upon contamination while caries prevalence in examined children unlike caries incidence was associated with HP-status of the oral cavity. Patients with concomitant gastroduodenal pathology had frequently periodontal disease (PD). In children with chronic antral gastritis associated with Helicobacter pylori clinical manifestations were poor and tended towards inflammatory process chronicity. All the patients had chronic catarrhal gingivitis. In children with Helicobacter pylori associated pathology of GIT it proceeded with 100% contamination of gingival mucous membrane by Helicobacter pylori as shown by bacterioscopic study.
