Abstract
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the salivary glands remain challenging to dental and maxillofacial surgeons. The development of new therapies remains an urgent task.
 The goal is to increase the effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment of patients with various diseases of the salivary glands.
 MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sialendoscopy was performed to diagnose and treat 61 patients with various diseases of the salivary glands. The age of the patients ranged from 20 to 94 years; there were 34 women and 27 men. General, specific, and special research methods were used for the preliminary diagnosis.
 RESULTS: Sialendoscopy allows the diagnosis or confirms previously established diagnoses of various neoplastic diseases of the salivary glands in 91% of the patients. In 77% of the patients, sialendoscopy was used to completely remove the salivary stones.
 CONCLUSION: Sialendoscopy can be an additional method of diagnosis and treatment of non-tumor diseases of the salivary glands and an auxiliary method of diagnosis and treatment during and after lithotripsy of salivary stones.
