Interest in the study of combined pathology in recent times is explained by the accumulation of new facts, the emergence of new information about interorgan, intertissue and intercellular levels of interaction in the system of the whole organism. In this regard, the issue of the relationship between diseases of internal organs and oral cavity organs is relevant. The study of combined lesions of the skin, internal organs, oral mucosa (OM), their relationship with general pathology is necessary for a dentist to make a correct diagnosis. There is a relationship between most pathological processes occurring between the OM, the red border of the lips and various organs and the systems of the body. Therefore, it is the lesions of the OM that are often the first signs of metabolic disorders, as well as various general somatic diseases. Periodontal tissues are a complex structural and functional complex and participate in various functions of the body: chewing, swallowing, speech, breathing. In the structure of the main diseases of the organs and tissues of the oral cavity, inflammatory processes in the periodontium occupy one of the leading positions, causing significant functional disorders of the maxillofacial region, caused by tooth loss, according to the conclusions of the WHO 5 times more often than in complicated forms of caries. Thus, OM diseases against the background of concomitant general somatic diseases, represent one of the most complex problems in dentistry due to difficulties in diagnosis and treatment. The development of lesions of the oral mucosa aggravates the course of the underlying disease, determines the specifics of the implementation of therapeutic measures. Correct and timely assessment of the OM condition and the choice of modern means of rational treatment by the doctor are topical issues in stomatology.
