The significant prevalence of periodontal diseases in elderly patients makes the research relevant. By now, the issues of complex clinical and radiological semiotics of generalized periodontitis using high-tech research methods is not sufficiently studied. The research addressed the clinical picture and three-dimensional computed tomographic semiotics of severe chronic generalized periodontitis focusing 25 elderly patients with severe chronic generalized periodontitis. It verified the necessity to use an organ-oriented program of multiplanar (volumetric) cone-beam computed tomography coupled with the analysis of the research results, as well as a mandatory analysis of densitometry indicators of the jaw bone tissue in diagnostically significant periodontal zones.
