Hydrolytic enzymes in healthy and unhealthy periodontal tissue.
Periodontal diseases belong to the group of diseases, by which are humans very often affected. Despite of the public health and economic significance of periodontal diseases, some aspects associated with their etiology and pathogenesis have not been consequently solved as yet. The main task in periodontology according to the experts of World Health Organization is "to express th opinion to the etiological factors of periodontal diseases as well as to the possibilities of their prevention and therapy". One of the possibilities to fulfil this task consists, besides, the clinical approach in laboratory studies of enzymatic, hormonal and immunological effects on the processes taking place in periodontal tissue under physiological and pathological conditions.
