Periodontitis: pharmacist's options in its prevention and treatment
Parodontitida: možnosti farmaceuta v její prevenci a léčbě
Parodontitida je nejčastějším nepřenosným zánětlivým onemocněním lidí. Ač se jedná o postižení závěsného aparátu zubu, jeho prevence a léčba nespadá jen do rukou zubního lékaře a dentální hygienistky. Farmaceut, jako součást multidisciplinárního týmu, má své místo jak při zajištění podpory dentálního zdraví pacienta, tak při záchytu a edukaci rizikových pacientů. Zvýšení kompetence farmaceutů v péči o pacienta s parodontitidou by mohlo vést ke snížení výskytu a zefektivnění léčby tohoto onemocnění.

Overview
Periodontitis is the most common non-communicable inflammatory disease of humans. Although it affects the periodontal apparatus, its prevention and treatment are not solely the responsibility of the dentist and the dental hygienist. The pharmacist, as part of a multidisciplinary team, plays a role in supporting the patient's dental health and in identifying and educating at-risk patients. Increasing pharmacists' competence in the care of patients with periodontitis could lead to a reduction in its incidence and more effective treatment.
