title: [Salivary glands and oral mucous membrane status in patients with chronic hepatitis].

The check up disclosed sialadenosis in 38% of patients and in 54% of patients - such diseases of oral mucous membrane as stomatitis, candidosis and geographic tonque. Besides there were disclosed such disturbances as big and small salivary glands secretion reduction, mixed saliva viscosity increase, increase of protein, P, K, Na and catalase content in it, glycogen hyperaccumulation in gingival tissues. The received data indicated the necessity of dispensary supervision of such patients and their treatment in stomatologist.
