title: [The time characteristics of the exacerbation of chronic periodontitis and of odontogenic perimaxillary abscesses].
abstract: Time course of some laboratory values and clinical manifestations of inflammatory process is studied in 52 patients with exacerbations of chronic periodontitis and 284 patients with odontogenic perimaxillary abscesses. Routine laboratory studies (clinical and biochemical analyses of the blood and urine) were carried out. Acute odontogenic inflammations are characterized by an intermittent course with periodicity of about a week. The end of the first week from the disease onset coincided with recovery in exacerbation of chronic periodontitis and with the beginning of stabilization of inflammatory process in abscess. Recovery after abscess was observed 2 weeks after disease onset. These regularities may be useful for specifying the pathogenesis, terms of check-ups, and duration of treatment.
