ABSTRACT

This work presents an analysis of the literature data of modern scientific research regarding the assessment of pathogenetic mechanisms of the impact of adaptive stress response on the condition of periodontal tissue. Chronic stress and depression suppress the immune system, predetermine hormonal imbalances, lead to metabolic disorders in tissues and increase the risk of dystrophic and inflammatory processes in periodontal tissues. All this leads to impaired masticatory function, tooth loss, pronounced psycho-emotional instability and significant decline in quality of life. That is why the problem of studying the adaptive stress response of the body requires further research to gain a deep understanding of its role in the etiology and pathogenesis of dental diseases and justify effective treatment and prevention measures.

KEY WORDS: periodontal tissues, generalized periodontitis, psychoemotional stress, adaptation, maladaptation, psycho-emotional disorders.
