IMPROVING THE DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF PERIODONTAL PATHOLOGY IN PATIENTS WITH SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS THROUGH MICROCIRCULATORY CORRECTION

Abstract

Periodontal diseases remain a prevalent challenge in clinical dentistry, particularly when exacerbated by autoimmune systemic conditions such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). This study investigates the efficacy of differentiated ozone therapy in managing inflammatory oral mucosal diseases in SLE patients. A clinical trial involving 122 patients was conducted, comparing standard treatments with an ozone-based protocol. Results, verified by ultrasound Dopplerography and hygiene indices, demonstrated a 40% improvement in microcirculation and a significant reduction in inflammation. The study concludes that ozone therapy is a highly effective, minimally invasive component for treating stomatological manifestations of SLE.
