Chronic Generalized Periodontitis in a Patient with Infiltrative Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Currently, the World Health Organization, in its annual Global Tuberculosis Report, notes an increase in the incidence of tuberculosis in the world associated with the failure of health systems. In 2022, 7.5 million people worldwide were diagnosed with tuberculosis, the highest rate since 1995. In the Russian Federation, the stabilization of reduced morbidity and mortality rates from tuberculosis infection is currently being determined. Patients with tuberculosis often have comorbid and concomitant diseases, which are one of the main causes that impressively affect the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory periodontal diseases. There is a pathogenetic relationship and aggravation of the course of diseases. The aim of the study is to analyze the course of chronic generalized periodontitis in a patient with pulmonary tuberculosis and to select personalized therapy. A clinical case of combined pathology (dental and infectious diseases) is presented, which was observed on the basis of the pulmonary therapeutic department of the N.S. Pokhvisneva KUZ in the VOKPTD. The conducted studies allowed us to conclude about the positive effect of a personalized approach in treatment.
