ABSTRACT
The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the maxillofacial area in the Republic of Belarus at the present stage.
Objects and methods. Medical records of inpatients from the archives of healthcare institutions of the Republic of Belarus, as well as documents of statistical reporting of dental departments for the period 2001 – 2018 (18 years), were used as an object for a retrospective study. Totally, 29,280 medical records were analyzed from “Vitebsk Regional Clinical Hospital” (15420 cards), “Brest Regional Hospital” (1650 cards), “Grodno Regional Clinical Hospital” (1700 cards), “Mogilev Regional Hospital” (3150 cards), “Gomel Regional Clinical Hospital” (3320 cards), “Minsk Regional Children’s Clinical Hospital” (1890 cards) and “11th City Clinical Hospital” of Minsk (2150 cards).
Results and discussion. The analysis of medical records of patients and statistical reporting documents gave the possibility to estimate the number of beds in the departments, the distribution of patients according to nosologies, the length of hospitalization, the number of persons undergoing inpatient treatment.
Conclusion.. Thus, over 5,500 patients with inflammatory diseases of the maxillofacial area are treated for one year that is about 47% of all people who received medical care during the same period.

Keywords: inflammation, maxillofacial area, the Republic of Belarus.
