DENTAL DISEASES: ETIOLOGY, PATHOGENESIS, MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES AND MODERN PREVENTION

Abstract

Dental diseases are among the most common conditions affecting human health and the pathological state of the oral cavity. Their development is associated with the complex interaction of microbiological biofilm, acid production, anatomical vulnerability, and immune response. This paper discusses in detail the etiopathogenesis, morphological and microscopic changes of dental caries, pulpitis, periodontitis, gingivitis, periodontosis, as well as non-carious lesions, together with modern approaches to treatment and prevention.
