BACTERIAL SCREENING OF SALIVA FROM POSTOPERATIVE WOUNDS IN CHILDREN WITH CONGENITAL ANOMALIES

Differences in the anatomical structure of the nose and oropharynx in this group of patients also determine the composition of the microflora of the oral cavity. The most important condition for non-invasive protection is the normal microflora. Due to the large concentration of lactic acid, many representatives of the autoflora (especially streptococci, lactobacilli) have a pronounced inhibitory effect on pathogenic microorganisms and conditions. After this, the composition of the autoflora changes, which can lead to the development of dysbiosis, which increases the release of opportunistic species such as S. aureus, Enterococcus, fungi of the genus Candida and the reduction of Lactobacillus and Streptococcus species, which can affect the treatment process.
