Current data related to transport of fluid through the covering tissue formations (skin, nail plate, dental enamel, gum valley) are being analyzed. A supposition is made of transtegumental fluid transport (TFT) as a general biological regularity which is specifically manifested in tissues of different functional purposes. Depending on the peculiarity of the organ, the tooth performs the TFT providing functional resistance of the enamel, whose level is clinically detected in the «test of enamel resistance» (TER) used in modern research. The article draws attention to the reasonability of an in-depth study of the tooth physiology, where the central element is TFT. This phenomenon is of interest both from fundamental and highly practical standpoints. Identification of seasonal periods in the functional resistance decline makes it possible to get a distinct effect by means of concentrating prevention efforts on this. The TER sample, as well as other transtegumental fluid transport patterns, is to find place in the system of personalized predictive approach to caries diseases

In experimental and clinical conditions the influence of medioprophylactic toothpastes with different fluoride compounds on enamel structural and functional characteristic of permanent teeth on the stage of secondary mineralization was studied. In the experimental part qualitive and quantative chemical test of the superficial enamel layer in 80 samples was made. Using secondary ion masspectrometry method the quality of fluoride and calcium ions enamel penetration was tested. Using radiophotoelectronic spectroscopy the number of fluoride, calcium and phosphorus ions was evaluated. The insufficient level of permanent teeth enamel mineralization after eruption and its changes due to the influence of different fluoride compound was shown. 88 schoolchildren of 12 years old were examined. The influence of fluoride containing toothpastes on hard tooth tissues, structural-functional enamel caries resistance and saliva mineralisation ability was stydied. The correlation beetwen studied parameters and fluoride compound, its concentration and the term of usage was found

The Metaanalysis was employed to review the scientific dental literature along with the author's own research for evaluation of the possibility of practical implementation evidence-based programmes for primary prevention of dental caries and periodontal disease on a community level. It is believed that the community programme have to comprise a situation analysis, long-term measurable goals and a system of evaluation. The author is sharing his experience in the development, implementation and monitoring of the oral health prevention programme in Belarus

Probability of relapse development of diffuse toxic goiter during the nearest two years after treatment is determined by its results and stressogenic capacity level, which is defined by Holmes and Rage method. As long as satisfactory treatment results and level of stressogenic capacity are above 300 points, the risk of diffuse toxic goiter relapse run to 68,5%

Training primary care physicians and general practitioners/family doctors is performed at different departments of Saratov State Medical University: Ambulatory Care, Polyclinic Therapy and Family Medicine. Since the foundation of department of Polyclinic Therapy, traditional training in polyclinic therapy has been carried out in different directions: outpatient therapy for the general practitioners/family doctors, for the 6th-year students of the Therapeutic faculty, for the 4th-year students of the Medico-prophylactic faculty, and for the 4th-year students of faculty of higher nursing professional education. In the recent years, the educational system is being reformed, so it has led to some changes in all fields of education in general. Innovative technologies, such as multimedia lectures, seminars, discussions, round tables, self-study with the use of different information resources, making out presentations of clinical cases, making reports and discussions in groups, carrying out mini-conferences, role model and business games for the primary care physicians, are introduced to the modern educational process. Therefore it is of high priority to use not only traditional education in the training of a general practitioner, but innovative technologies as well, which can guarantee high level of education and professional development
