The organized institution was headed by P. G. Dauge, the dentist by education and the associate of Lenin by revolutionary activity. He developed dentistry reform plan as far back as the Revolution. The plan provided for organizing state dental clinics on the basis of requisitioned private dental offices and their former owners left without implements were to be engaged into public service. This process was regulated by the resolutions developed by the Dentistry subsection and adopted by the Peoples Commissariat of Health (“On the state organization of dental care in the Republic”, “On labor service of medical personnel” ) as well as by numerous instructions and circulars. The main problems when organizing state dentistry became missing or inadequate financing, deficiency of equipment, required instruments, materials and medications as well as reluctance of dentists to be deprived of their offices and to change to state service. The organization of national state dental care was impeded by military mobilization of dentists and dental technicians that resulted in more than one third of specialists found themselves in the Red Army. The state outpatient clinics network, organized in conditions of war communism, decreased drastically after transition to the new economic policy in 1921.</abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>history of medicine</kwd><kwd>dentistry</kwd><kwd>dental subsection</kwd><kwd>P.
