[Peat poultices in the treatment of parodontal diseases].

For an assessment of the therapeutic effectiveness of peat poultices in parodontal diseases in 156 patients of either sex aged 24-68 years the authors used the gingival index, Suleus Fluid Rate, selective cytometric examination of salivary sediment and electrothermometric testing of the gingiva before and after this treatment. Moreover, after the treatment the patients answered an inquiry for expressing their opinion on the course and effectiveness of peat treatment. The difference test used in the calculations demonstrated statistically significant differences before and after the treatment with respect to the gingival index and Suleus Fluid Rate. Statistically significant differences were found also between the values of the leucocyte index and the keratinization index before and after peat treatment. The opinions of the patients were mostly positive.

[Examination of CPITN indicator usefulness in specialist periodontal care].

Usefulness of CPITN indicator in specialistic parodontological care in 70 patients aged between 15-59 years has been estimated. One specialist was denoting the CPITN indicator on a special card and sending these patients to 1 out of 4 parodontologists in order to determine therapeutic management in a traditional way without knowing the value of CPITN. Comparing therapeutic needs based on CPITN value and on specialistic clinical examination it has been found that in 55.7% there existed a difference in parodontological needs and in 24.3% cases CPITN indicator determined therapeutic needs more precisely. It has resulted from utilization of diagnostic tool--WHO 621 tube. In 37.1% of the cases there existed inconsistency in determining therapeutic needs by both methods. It has resulted from the differences of both programs' assumptions. Although the CPITN system is intended for determination of parodontological needs of a certain community it can also be applied in specialistic parodontological care.

[Indicator of periodontal therapeutic needs (CPITN) in adults aged between 35-44 years in Szczecin province].

The authors have studied parodontological therapeutic needs utilizing the indicator of needs (CPITN) in 122 adults (35-44 years old) living in a small city of Lobez and adjacent villages in Szczecin province. From the results obtained it follows that the greatest percentage of parodontological therapeutic needs referred to the third category of these needs (82.8%). The average number of sextances with dental deposits falling to 1 person was 2.3 and with gingival pockets of 6 mm or deeper--2.1. No person with healthy parodontium has been found. Significantly greater parodontological therapeutic needs have been found in men than in women.
