Abstract

Salivary stone disease (sialolithiasis) represents the most common obstructive pathology of the major salivary glands and is characterized by a recurrent course and chronic inflammatory changes. The present study provides a comprehensive analysis of epidemiological features, territorial distribution, and major environmental and lifestyle-related risk factors of sialolithiasis in the Bukhara region. A retrospective evaluation of clinical data highlights the significant role of drinking water hardness, mineral composition, oral hygiene, and hydration status in disease development. Based on the findings and recent literature, modern preventive strategies integrating dental, environmental, and lifestyle interventions are proposed to reduce disease incidence and recurrence.

Keywords

sialolithiasis, salivary stone disease, prevention, drinking water quality, oral hygiene, environmental factors.
