Aim. The aim is to study the dental morbidity by examining the representatives of the urban population i.e. detection of tooth decay in the adult urban population of the Chechen Republic and identification of a connection with the concentration of fluoride in drinking water, as well as with the age and place of residence. Methods. The study involved (random sampling) 600 people aged from 20 to 60 years who were born and permanently residing in various cities of the Chechen Republic. When collecting material, a card was used to systematically monitor the oral cavity, which included caries-affected teeth, filled teeth, teeth to be extracted as well as the extracted teeth due to caries complications. The content of fluorine in drinking water was determined in the Republican Health Inspection Services by the potentiometric method according to the state standard "Drinking water" (GOST 4386-81). Results. The prevalence of caries among the urban population of the Chechen Republic is quite high. At the age of 20-29 years, it reached 94.4%, increasing with age, reaching 100% in the older age groups. The findings obtained can largely be explained by the different content of fluorine in drinking water in the surveyed cities. Conclusion. Dental examinations of the urban population of the Chechen Republic living in the same climatic conditions allow us to note that the need for therapeutic and preventive care for basic dental diseases, such as dental caries, is quite high. All this requires taking urgent measures to improve dental care for the population in the cities surveyed.
