 clinics chains, access to care and cultural level of the population. Different methods: historical, sociological, statistical were used. According to the results of research, the caries and its complications were revealed in 96.3% of dental profile patients. 80% of patients need in treatment, removal and prosthetics. Periodontal diseases suffered 86.5% of patients. Among patients of municipal dental clinic and non-state dental center, the number of respondents with increasing age is reduced significantly, which assess their dental health as «good». The number of patients, who believes his dental health as «bad», is increased. The obtained data indicate a low number of appeals to the dentist with the preventive purpose, as well as the wide dissemination of the bad habits, leading to diseases of the teeth and mucous membrane of the oral cavity. The identified risk factors of dental diseases must be considered for development of individual and group programs of prevention.
