Unhealthy teeth – unhealthy body

Caries can cause problems such as:

  • tooth destruction, leading to complete loss
  • inflammation of the tooth pulp (the innervated part of the tooth), resulting in pain and tissue necrosis
  • infecting other teeth

Missing teeth can cause:

  • headaches
  • taste disorders
  • hearing disorders
  • oral cavity sensory disturbances (burning sensation of the tongue)
  • bone atrophy
  • loss of adjacent teeth
  • digestive problems
  • vitamin deficiency

  • cardiovascular diseases
  • strokes
  • glomerulonephritis
  • perinatal pathologies (prematurity, miscarriages, low birth weight)

Peridontal inflammation resulting from untreated or improperly treated teeth, can lead to:

  • diabetes
  • atherosclerosis
  • local bone atrophy
  • glomerulonephritis
  • endocarditis
  • sinusitis
  • perinatal pathologies (prematurity, miscarriages, low birth weight)
  • eye, brain diseases and meningitis

Information on the impact of the activities carried out by the organizational unit involving
the opening of an X-ray laboratory and the starting and use of X-ray equipment on
human health and the environment.
Article 32c (2) of the Atomic Law (Journal of Laws of 2019, item 1792, as amended) informs you
that activities related to ionizing radiation exposure are carried out in the organizational unit of
Puciło Dentistry, consisting of:
starting and using equipment that produces ionizing radiation (Kavo Focus apparatus)
opening of an X-ray laboratory, where sources of ionizing radiation are used.
Decisions authorizing the start and use of an X-ray machine and the opening of an X-ray
laboratory have been issued for this unit by the Lubuskie State Regional Sanitary Inspector in
Gorzów Wielkopolski, No. I/M/NS-HR-24/118/2019 dated March 19, 2019.
According to Article 17 (1) of the Atomic Law, to adjust the method of assessing the risk to
its expected level, the employees of this organizational unit have been placed in exposure
category B. Assessment of worker exposure is carried out using systematic measurements of
individual doses.
Over the past 12 months, no exceedances of dose limits, including effective and equivalent
doses, were identified for the employees.
On March 12, 2019, dosimetric measurements of the power distribution for the dose of
ionizing X-rays around the Kavo Focus X-ray machine were performed. These yearly
measurements confirmed that the construction of the walls, ceilings, windows, doors, and
installed protective devices in the X-ray laboratory were sufficient to protect workers, the
general population residing in the vicinity, as well as the general population in case an X-ray
laboratory located in a residential building from receiving doses specified in § 2 and § 3 (1) of
the Regulation of the Minister of Health of August 21, 2006 (Journal of Laws No. 180, item
1325).
The head of the organizational unit shall ensure that exposure activities are carried out
following the principles of optimization requiring that, with reasonable consideration of
economic and social factors and the current state of technical knowledge, the number of
exposed workers and persons from the general population and the probability of their
exposure should be as small as possible. In addition, the doses of ionizing radiation
received by them should be as small as possible.

Based on the above information, it was concluded that the activities in the past 12
months have not caused harm to human health or the environment.
In connection with the performance of the above-described activities, no radioactive
substances were released into the environment.
