Occupational exposure to styrene is associated with increased oxidative stress, leading to periodontal tissue damage. This study evaluates the effectiveness of antioxidant complex therapy in restoring periodontal health in workers exposed to styrene. Fifty workers with a history of chronic styrene exposure were divided into two groups: one receiving conventional periodontal therapy and the other receiving an additional antioxidant complex regimen. Clinical parameters, including probing depth, gingival index, and oxidative stress markers, were assessed over a six-month period. Results demonstrated a significant improvement in periodontal parameters and reduction of oxidative stress markers in the group receiving antioxidant therapy compared to the control group. This study suggests that antioxidant complex therapy may serve as a valuable adjunct in managing periodontal diseases in occupationally exposed populations [1], [2].Downloads
