Sažetak

As a method of treatment hyperbaric oxygenation also has its application in oral surgery. Inhalation of pure oxygen under increased pressure leads to multiply increased amount of oxygen in the tissues. In this way hypoxy is removed which regularly occurs in numerous pathological conditions as the cause or consequence. A whole series of physiological mechanisms are normalised and improved. Perfusion of tissue and microcirculation are improved because of the reodynamic effect and neoangiogenesis. Metabolic activity is improved to subcelular level. HBO regulates local and general immunity. It acts antibacterially, particularly to anaerobes, which is of great importance in the case of oral infection. Furthermore, it also acts synergistically with antibiotics in cases of infection with resistant micro-organisms.
HBO can be applied in oral surgery in the treatment of acute and chronic inflammations of soft tissues and jaws, and also in the case of irradiated patients with tumours. It is important as a preventive prior to various operations and in the case of immunocompromised, chronic patients (diabetes, liver, kidneys etc.). It is particularly important prior to operations on bones (extraction, reconstruction of defects, implants etc.).
As contraindications are few, side-effects practically negligible, and usefulness with regard to health and cost benefit incomparably greater, it can be concluded that HBO therapy is a very important, powerful and modern means of treatment, which has recently become available in the University Hospital “Dubrava”.
