The effect of regular use of chewing gum (for 28 days) on microcirculation was assessed in 35 patients with slight and medium-severe
periodontitis
by biomicroscopy and laser Doppler flowmetry. Microcirculation normalized immediately after chewing training due to arrest of arteriolar
spasm
. In slight
periodontitis
the effect persists for almost one year, in medium-severe condition for up to 6 months, because of more expressed structural changes in the microvessels of periodontal tissue.
