Analysis of orthopedic pathology among older people on the example of pensioners of OEMC (mining and metallurgical complex)

In the structure of specialized medical care, dental orthopedic care is one of the leading places for the adaptation of elderly patients. Our long-term observations confirm the high generalization of oral diseases among the able-bodied population with an annual significant deterioration. Certain industries suggest hazardous working conditions due to the complex effects of production factors harmful to the biological health of workers. Intensities of caries, periodontal diseases and the oral mucosa of workers in especially hazardous industries are higher than those working under normal conditions, which raises the question of determining the need for orthopedic dental care. The article presents data from the 2017–2019 research of the need for prosthetics and identification of types of prostheses for dental rehabilitation of pensioners in the mining industry of the Belgorod region, in particular the complex (OEMC). In total, 353 medical records of a dental patient were studied and analyzed, form 043/in men and women (67.1 % and 32.8 %, respectively) of the age group 55–70 years.
