Side by side: pathological autopsies, experimental and clinical studies have already proven the possibility of congenital tbc as one form of infection. But these observations are not over, concrete conclusions on this issue have not yet been finally made, and therefore any changes in the body during the period of its embryonic development, which remain unchanged for life, are valuable. The dental apparatus deserves such attention, bearing the imprint of all the defects of the embryonic period. Having a large movement of tuberculosis patients in a sanatorium with 250 beds, it seemed to us extremely interesting to trace, using the materials of the dental office, what forms of dental dystrophies and the frequency of them are found in tuberculosis patients and in other chronic infections. We know how great the diagnostic value of some dental dystrophies in congenital syphilis is, and we do not know at all those in congenital tbc, despite the similarity of the effects of these infections on the life of the body. The material to be analyzed is quantitatively insufficient, and the dental office continues further observations.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
