Abstract
AIM. The aim of this study is to investigate the differences in the microbiota of the surface of orthodontic plates depending on the used hygiene products.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. The study was attended by 36 patients aged 6 to 12 years, undergoing treatment on removable orthodontic equipment using various hygiene products. The study was carried out using the determination of the prosthesis hygiene index and microbiological analysis of the material from the surface of the plate. Statistically, the data analysis included a description of the accounting features, an assessment of the statistical significance of changes in the indicators under study.
RESULTS. In the structure of the biofilm of a removable plate, microbiological indicators before and after the experiment showed a pronounced, statistically significant negative dynamics. And also, an improvement in the hygiene index of the plate and oral cavity.
CONCLUSIONS. The use of various hygiene products with orthodontic patients and the study of the microbiological status of the surface of the plate after cleaning them will allow you to choose the most optimal option for cleansing the removable apparatus.
