title: [Aging and periodontal diseases (review)].
abstract: The review on associative communications of periodontal diseases, aging and age associated pathology is submitted. Uniform pathophysiological and pathogenetic mechanisms of these processes and their interrelation are analyzed. The question of existence of so-called periodontal-systemic connection is discussed. The conclusion about need of changing the paradigm of approach for diagnostics and treatment of patients with periodontal pathology from tightly specialized stomatologic into the interdisciplinary paradigm is drawn. It is especially important for the elderly patients having polymorbid pathology in association with inflammatory periodontal diseases.
