Despite the narrow specialization and distant connection with the problem of viral pneumonia, dentists, nevertheless, are at risk of contracting the new coronavirus infection COVID-19. To reduce the epidemiological activity the provision of routine dental care was suspended in the vast majority of regions of the Russian Federation including the Moscow region, from the end of March 2020 to June 20, 2020. During the entire period of routine medical care suspended, the Moscow region chief dentist’s team was daily monitoring information about applied patients. The suspension of routine medical care has reduced the number of cases of COVID-19 infection contact transmission in medical organizations during the period of the most active increase in the morbidity. In addition, the decrease in the number of patients enabled medical organizations to reduce the number of medical personnel, which contributed to a decrease in the percentage of morbidity among doctors.dentistryMoscow regionsuspension of routine medical careCOVID-19 pandemicстоматологияМосковская областьприостановление плановой медицинской помощипандемия COVID-191.Силин А.
