title: [Cytological indices as criteria for assessing periodontal status].
abstract: The authors define the complex of criteria for analysis of cytograms of gingival impressions in health and periodontal diseases. Such criteria are needed for objective diagnosis and monitoring of periodontal status over the course of treatment. All the cellular elements were taken account of: different types of epithelial cells, including those with signs of cytopathology and bacterial contamination, connective tissue cells, mononuclears, leukocytes, and fibroblasts. The cytological picture correlated with the status of periodontium and forms and severity of pathological processes developing in it.
