Objective:
To study the frequency of visits to dental surgeons in different subjects of the Russian Federation.
Material And Methods:
The work used the data of sectoral statistical observation for 2017-2023 presented in the statistical compilations of the Ministry of Health of Russia on resource provision in federal districts and subjects of the Russian Federation for 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2024. Statistical and analytical methods of research were used in the work.
Results:
It was found that the highest attendance rate of dental surgeons nationwide was recorded in 2018 and 2019. During the COVID-19 pandemic period from 2019 to 2021, specialist attendance decreased by 10.5%. However, despite the imposed restrictive measures during the COVID-19 pandemic the number of visits to dental surgeons for the disease increased in 17.6% of the subjects of the Russian Federation. After the COVID-19 pandemic (from 2022 to 2023) the rate in general increased by 0.5%. In the period under study, the dynamics of attendance of dental surgeons in the country as a whole remains negative with a decrease of 9.9%.
Conclusion:
The increase in the frequency of visits to dental surgeons among the population of the Russian Federation both during the COVID-19 pandemic and after it indicates an increase in the medical activity of the population in maintaining dental health.
