Hyaluronic acid in dentistry.
Hyaluronic acid is the natural saccharide that is contained in soft tissues and extracellular organism structures. It adds softness and elasticity to the hair and skin. The hyaluronic acid shots enlarge the size of lips and smooth out nasolabial folds. Besides the cosmetic application, the shots of hyaluronic acid have come into common use in dentistry.
Dental preparations having hyaluronic acid as the core component are absolutely safe infection wise and almost don’t cause any allergic reactions. They are biologically inert and improve the regeneration of soft and hard tissues in the dental area due to that fact they are widely used for treatment and prophylactic of periodontal diseases and for the treatment of buccal mucosa. In addition, they are used in dental surgery, therapy and orthopedics.

Properties of hyaluronic acid, which are exploited in dentistry:
- anti-inflammatory – used against inflammation of gingiva, periodontitis, during the implantation of teeth;
- bacteriostatic – suppresses the growth and development of bacteria in the area of inflammation, which is actively used during the treatment of periodontitis;
- regenerative – helps to accelerate the processes of healing and rehabilitation after the surgical procedures;
- improves the fixation of the bone graft materials in case of their use during the implantation of teeth, keeping the stability and dimensions of the bone transplant;
- reconstruction of the interdental papilla, reconstruction of the missing tissues;
- helps rehabilitation of the tissues within and outside the joint(the injections of hyaluronic acid are implemented in case of disorders of temporomandibular joints), reducing the pain, eliminating snaps in the joint and allowing it to regain mobility.
The most famous among the uses of hyaluronic acid injections is the use for the correction and elimination of defects of interdental papilla adjoining the teeth or the dental implants. Dental black triangles (gingival embrasures) are successfully removed; the space between the dental bridge and the mucosa is reduced. The effect of the hyaluronic acid is the volume gain of soft tissues and filling of interdental spaces.
The use of the bone graft materials in combination with hyaluronic acid helps to successfully eliminate the shortage of the bone tissue, necessary for the installment of implants. The surgical dentistry solves aesthetic problems arising from the lack of soft tissues with the help of this substance. Due to their properties, these preparations are the great means for the restoration of tissues.
Gels, that contain hyaluronic acid, play the role of antiseptics and have protective functions, preserving the surgical site from being infected by bacteria. This improves healing and decreases the number of complications. For the solution of such problems as gum bleeding, itchy mouth and the mobility of teeth there might be required only several procedures with the use of hyaluronic acid.
