Purpose: To determine the values of potentiometric parameters in the oral cavity present between metal inclusions, as well as between metal inclusions and the mucous membrane of the alveolar process in patients with chronic odontogenic maxillary sinusitis with galvanic pathology.
Methods: 56 patients with chronic odontogenic maxillary sinusitis were divided into two observation groups, which were subjected to potentiometric and general clinical examination methods.
Results: In 30 patients with chronic odontogenic maxillary sinusitis with the presence of galvanism (compensated and decompensated forms) in the oral cavity, chronic inflammation in the maxillary sinus occurred without pronounced clinical symptoms, and in 26 patients with oral galvanosis (atypical and typical forms), the clinical symptoms of inflammation in the maxillary sinus were severe with an aggressive course and complications.
Conclusions: Based on an examination of 56 patients with chronic odontogenic maxillary sinusitis in the presence of galvanic pathology in the oral cavity, we found that in some types of this pathology, i.e., galvanosis, inflammatory disease in the maxillary sinus is aggressive, with pronounced clinical symptoms, frequent exacerbations of the inflammatory process, the presence of many postoperative inflammatory complications and recurrence of the disease.
