In recent years, the clinic dental surgery, there are many patients with osteomyelitis of the mandible that are occurring against a background of reducing reactivity. The destruction of bone that accompanies osteomy elitis of the maxilla in patient who use narcotic drugs also leads to the formation of the palate defect. In such cases, the food and the air from the mouth begin to get into the nose, and it becomes specific. Plastic closing of such de fects is very difficult. In most cases, a local plastic tissues or in case of inability to use plastic by Filatov stem. But in practice the result of the operation is often unsuccessful. The reasons may be particular structure of the mucosa in the area of the defect, which reduces its regenerative capacity, reduced blood supply to the flap when it is moving, technical difficulties during the operation and so on. In the dental department of the Ternopil University Hospital applied to remedy the defect palate using the transplant of pig skin as a membrane thickness of 1.5 mm, which is placed under the mucous membrane in the region of the defect, closing it. The lyophilized pigskin registered in Ukraine and is permitted for use as medical devices product. The transplant is used as a conductor, which forms the epithelization of the wound, and isolates the mouth of the nasal, which greatly improves the state of the patient in the postoperative period.
