title: [Clinical and x-ray characteristics of the periodontium in Sjögren's disease].
abstract: Clinical and X-ray examination of parodont was performed in 35 patients with Sjögren disease and 35 control patients. Osteal parodont X-ray examination was performed using the techniques of panorama and orthopantomography. As a result of clinical and X-ray investigation, the patients showed a lesser degree of the diffuse osseal parodont resorbtion as compared to controls that was evidenced by a lack of clinical manifestations of the parodont inflammation. This is possibly due to the absence, in a majority of the patients, of the mineralized dental concrements. The focal inflammatory disorders were connected to local trauma factors.
