PROCESSES OF ADAPTATION OF PATIENTS TO DENTISTS

Abstract

In recent years, the interest of dentists in solving the issues of adaptation of patients to dentures has not waned [1]. Functional rehabilitation of persons with a complete lack of teeth is a complex and unsolved task of modern dentistry. This problem remains not fully understood. A promising direction is the chronophysiological approach, which is a wave-like process with a pronounced rhythmic organization [13]. Of great importance in the process of adaptation to dentures is the condition of the tissues of the prosthetic bed and psychological rest. Achieving physical and psychological comfort during the use of dentures, as well as reducing the time of this process is possible if in the adaptation period the peculiarities of changing the general and local parameters of the body were taken into account [6].
