Aim of the study was to research familial occurrence of Trichomonas tenax and relationship between infection with the protozoan and both a state of parodontium and hygiene of oral cavity. The study involved 10 families (22 individuals). Trichomonas tenax was found in 16 patients. Simultaneously isolates of protozoans were examined with the methods of molecular biology. The study showed the dependence of infection with Trichomonas tenax on both bad hygiene of oral cavity and occurrence of pathological lesions in the paradontium.
本研究的目的是调查口腔毛滴虫的家族聚集情况,以及该原生动物感染与牙周状态和口腔卫生之间的关系。该研究涉及10个家庭(22名个体)。在16名患者中发现了口腔毛滴虫。同时,采用分子生物学方法对原生动物分离株进行了检测。研究表明,口腔毛滴虫感染既取决于口腔卫生不良,也取决于牙周病理损害的发生情况。
