Anticoagulation therapy includes drugs which prevent intravascular formation and spreading of a thrombus. Heparin and dicoumarin preparation are in use. Heparin preparations are commonly used when a rapid anticoagulant effect is required, they are administered intravenously, act immediately performing the inhibition of thromboplastin activation, prothrombin to thrombin conversion, and the effect of thrombin to fibrinogen. Oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT) includes drugs - antagonists of vitamin K, which is responsible for the synthesis of prothrombin complex factors - II, VII, IX and X. They are derived from coumarin and indandione. One of the most frequently used drugs from the OAT group is warfarin. It is a competitive inhibitor of vitamin K required for the carboxylation of the residues of PK factor glutamic acid. The results of this inhibition lead to the unsuccessful formation of gama carboxyglutamic acid and the production of functionally inert coagulation proteins. The aim of this study was to show a rare but dangerous complication of an inadequate application of oral anticoagulation therapy. Case study. Patient S.S., male, aged 79, was admitted to the Oral Surgery Department, Clinic of Dentistry of the Faculty of Medicine in Nis on October 5, 2012 due to a severe general condition with massive hematoma in the facial area. Anamnestic data showed that during the previous couple of days, the patient was voluntarily taking a whole tablet of Farin instead of the prescribed dose. The patient started receiving intravenous low-molecular-weight heparin therapy (Fraxarin 0.3/12h) along with the antibiotic therapy. In the following period, the patient reported daily at the Oral Surgery Department for regular check-ups. The hematoma was absorbed and the swelling was completely gone within the next 7 to 10 days.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"31 1","pages":"1514-1523"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71200458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of periodontal tissues and is one of the most widespread diseases. It represents a huge problem with increasing importance. Modern therapy of periodontitis includes the classic treatment methods, surgery and the latest laser technology. Particularly important is that low level laser therapy is completely painless, non-invasive and without harmful effect. The aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy of low level laser therapy as an adjunct to the basic treatment of periodontitis. Material and Method. The study was conducted on 50 patients with periodontitis and clinical symptoms of gingival inflammation. During the first visit, periodontal indices were measured: plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI) periodontal Ramford index (PDI); dental plaque and tartar were removed and periodontal pockets were treated. Consequently, the right side of the jaws (group A) was treated with GaAlAs laser (Mils 94, 670 nm, 5 mW, 14 min). Laser therapy was left out on the left side the jaw of each patient (group B), in order to compare the effect of treatment with and without laser. After the first, third and fifth treatment, GI and PI were measured, and one month after finished therapy GI, Pi and PDI were measured again. Results. Comparing the mean values of indices in relation to the value before the therapy, the reduction was observed and was more pronounced on the lased side of the jaws. Comparing the mean indices values between groups, lower values were noticed on the lased compared to the non-lased side. Conclusion. Low-power lasers are effective in the elimination of gingival inflammation and improvement of periodontal health. They can be recommended as an adjunct to the basic periodontal therapy.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"31 1","pages":"1504-1513"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71200821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is transmitted through the X chromosome. Hemophilia A is characterized by excessive bleeding in various tissues of the body, including soft tissue hematomas and hemarthrosis. In formulating the diagnosis of hemophilia A, in addition to a well-taken medical history and physical examination, laboratory tests should also be carried out and analyzed. Tooth extraction is the most common surgical procedures in patients with hemophilia. Hematological preparation implies the application of a concentrated factor VIH for one to two days prior to the intervention to achieve a desired level of factor VIII needed for the operation. In tooth extraction, this level has to be 50% before and after the tooth extraction for 5 days, with the application of antifibrinolytic agents. In oral surgical interventions the desired level of factor VIII is 50-80% preoperatively, 30-80% for 5 days after surgery, and 30% up to 14 days, also with the use of antifibrinolytic therapy. Patients with hemophilia and inhibitors are prepared for intervention through the application of recombinant FVIIa at the dose of 120mcg/kg, repeated every 2 hours for the period of 7-10 days after the intervention. It is necessary to apply antifibrinolytic agents and local hemostatic measures. Measures of local hemostasis are unavoidable in the case of oral surgical interventions in patients with hemophilia A. Implementation of these procedures in oral surgery has the role of minimizing the possibility of intra- and postoperative bleeding in patients with hemophilia A. For this purpose, the following are mostly used: absorbable suture thread, preparations of collagen, oxycellulose, gelatin, fibrin glue, with topical application of tranexamic or epsilon aminocaproic acid. Conclusion: Close cooperation between hematologists and oral surgeons is essential in order to minimize unwanted complications in patients with hemophilia A.","PeriodicalId":39229,"journal":{"name":"Acta Stomatologica Naissi","volume":"31 1","pages":"1486-1492"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71200795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to determine the costs of treating dry socket, as in Serbia, until now, there has been no adequate estimation of the expenses and cost structure for treating patients with dry socket. Material and Methods: The costs of treating dry socket were analyzed on the sample of 455 adults with confirmed diagnosis of dry socket. All the patients were treated at the Oral Surgery Department, Institute of Dental Medicine in Kragujevac, during 2012. Direct costs per patient, concerning the acquisition of medicines and medical supplies, as well as medical services, were recorded in accordance with the Blue Code Book of the National Health Insurance Fund. Results: Out of total 12.652 teeth extracted, 455patients (3.6%) were diagnosed with dry socket. Total direct cost for treating dry socket in 2012 was 1.298,58 ± 468.93 RSD per patient, of which 1.065,16 RSD ± 394.49 RSD (82.02%) was the total price of the service and 1. 298,58 ± 468.93 RSD (17.98%) was spent on dental supplies. Conclusion: The actual cost of treating dry socket in Serbia shows that there is a need for the implementation of the relevant preventive measures.
