Abstract
Among dental pathology, diseases of the salivary glands, according to a number of authors, range from 3 to 7%. Of these, salivary stones account for up to 30%, various forms of chronic sialadenitis and sialadenosis — up to 60%, congenital anomalies — up to 1% and tumors-up to 5% . Various methods of diagnosing diseases of the salivary glands do not fully meet the requirements of doctors to make a final decision on the choice of treatment for various diseases of the salivary glands, as result of which patients receive untimely or inadequate care. In this article, the authors consider modern issues of diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the salivary glands. The current state of the problem is studied, problems in this area identified and analyzed, and the need for further improvement of research methods and diagnostics of diseases of the salivary glands is justified.
