Throughout the world, dentistry is one of the most expensive and complex branches of medicine, so treatment in private institutions is often inaccessible to people with average and low incomes. Health insurance is a public service for all Russian citizens only if they have a compulsory medical insurance policy. What are the features of dental treatment under the compulsory medical insurance policy? What is included in free dental care under compulsory medical insurance? What is included in the list of dental services under compulsory medical insurance and the materials used for this? What treatment and services are not included in the compulsory medical insurance policy? We will answer these and other questions in this article.

What is included in free dental treatment under compulsory medical insurance?

Participation in the compulsory medical insurance program makes it possible to receive free dental care in municipal medical institutions. Dental treatment under the compulsory medical insurance policy is especially in demand among those who cannot afford to go to private clinics. These include the following groups of citizens:

• The poor (people who do not have a permanent stable income, pensioners, orphans, disabled people, etc.);
• People who cannot currently go to a private clinic due to temporary financial difficulties;
• Patients who do not want to overpay for treatment in private clinics for services that can be classified as light (initial stage of caries, dental filling, etc.).

Every year, the government at the legislative level approves a territorial program, within the framework of which all residents of the Russian Federation are guaranteed the provision of free medical care in the volumes established by legislative norms. Free medical services also include a number of dental procedures that can be performed in a municipal medical institution under the compulsory medical insurance policy. The territorial program establishes a list of the following dental services that can be obtained free of charge:

• Initial consultation with a specialist, examination of the oral cavity, home consultation for patients who are unable to visit a doctor for health reasons;
• Treatment of diseases of the oral cavity (caries, periodontal disease, gingivitis and other types of diseases affecting the teeth and gums);
• Elimination of problems and diseases of salivation (excessive dryness, increased salivation, inflammatory processes, etc.);
• Manual removal of yellow plaque, tartar;
• Surgical treatment of soft tissues (gum excision, removal of inflammation, elimination of purulent processes);
• Tooth extraction, removal of stuck foreign bodies, primary manipulations in the field of orthodontics;
• Trauma care, reduction of dislocated jaw bones;
• Physiotherapeutic procedures;
• X-ray, diagnostic manipulations;
• Dentistry for children, including orthodontics (bite correction, etc.).

If you have a compulsory medical insurance policy, patients are provided free of charge not only with the help of a specialist doctor, but also with some consumables and medications. These include materials for filling: phosphate, silicate and glass ionomer cementing compositions for fixing fillings on teeth; enamel polishing pastes; consumables for bandaging, suturing, equipping a drill, film for X-ray equipment; Russian-made antiseptic and painkillers.

What is not included in the free treatment program?

To have your teeth treated for free, you need to go to a dental clinic or the dental department of a hospital. However, not all types of treatment can be received free of charge; in the fall of 2013, a number of procedures were excluded from the territorial compulsory health insurance program, which henceforth are provided on a paid basis. These include the following:

• Preventive actions to eliminate the risk of dental diseases;
• Use of imported sealing components;
• Removing plaque and tartar using a scaler;
• Treatment of oral diseases using foreign-made materials;
• Restoration of crowns that have been destroyed during long-term use.

The list of services that do not fall under the category of free services does not include the services of an orthopedic dentist. Restoration of dentition, implantation of artificial teeth, restoration of shape - all these procedures are carried out only on a paid basis. In any case, the doctor conducting the treatment must notify the patient of the list of services that can be provided to him free of charge.

The procedure for receiving dental care under compulsory medical insurance

To clarify the contacts of a municipal clinic where you can receive free dental care, you should contact the insurance company that issued and issued the policy. Usually, dental treatment is available in the clinic to which the citizen is attached, but the compulsory medical insurance document allows you to receive help in another region or medical institution of the country. If you do not have a permanent registration at your place of residence, you can be assigned to a clinic using a temporary registration, while doctors are required to provide emergency care regardless of whether you have a permanent registration. Emergency cases of dental care under compulsory medical insurance include:

• Acute toothache, nerve damage;
• Inflammatory processes at a late stage, tissue necrosis;
• Jaw injuries, bone fractures, etc.

In some dental clinics, before visiting, it is necessary to undergo an attachment procedure, for which the patient must write and certify an application, submitting it to the department of the insurance organization. Many insurance companies themselves deal with the assignment of patients - for this they will require the following documents:

• Compulsory medical insurance policy;
• Pension certificate SNILS;
• Identity card (citizen's passport, military ID, birth certificate).

Free dental care is also available in some private clinics: a number of commercial clinics participate in government programs and cooperate with insurance organizations that reimburse treatment costs under the compulsory medical insurance program. To get acquainted with the list of such clinics, just visit the office or website of the insurance company that issued the compulsory medical insurance policy.

Dental treatment under the compulsory medical insurance policy for children

According to the current provisions of the compulsory insurance program, dental care is guaranteed to all citizens in full from the moment of birth until the age of 18. When receiving dental care for children under the compulsory medical insurance program, documents such as a birth certificate or passport, identification card of a parent, close relative or guardian who is accompanying the child to the clinic are required.

Dental treatment without registration

Just a few years ago, there was no single database, and receiving medical care under an insurance policy in another region was impossible. Today, thanks to the Unified Database, patients have the opportunity to be assigned to a clinic at their temporary registration address or undergo the procedure of being assigned to a selected area (the second option is relevant for those who are not registered anywhere). Difficulties at this stage arise only with the choice of institution: patients are assigned to strictly defined healthcare institutions, and it is impossible to select a clinic on their own.

If the patient moves to another microdistrict of the locality, the policy cannot be changed. However, the patient will have to contact the insurance organization again to receive a new memorial sheet: it will list the current addresses of health care institutions that will be able to provide services under the compulsory health insurance program.

Conclusion

Dental treatment under the compulsory medical insurance policy is a good budget alternative to private clinics, especially in cases of receiving medical care for services that can be classified as light (initial stage of caries, dental filling, etc.). When receiving medical care in such cases, you can be sure that the quality of these services will be comparable to those received in private clinics. In all other, more complex cases, dental services will have to be paid for out of pocket, and private clinics often benefit compared to municipal ones.

When visiting a dental office under the compulsory medical insurance program, it is recommended to take an identity card and a compulsory medical insurance policy. In this case, you should contact the clinic to which the patient was officially assigned - this will initially save time. In case of an acute or dangerous illness, you can go to any dental hospital, regardless of the presence or absence of a compulsory medical insurance policy.

There are several specialized areas in dentistry. Each doctor solves specific problems of the dental system. Therefore, it is necessary to know who treats certain diseases, including which dentist treats caries and places fillings.

Which dentist treats caries?

In dental practice, 3 specialists can fill teeth at once:

• dentist;
• therapist;
• pediatric dentist.

The job description of the first professional includes a wide range of responsibilities. He chooses treatment tactics, administers anesthesia, diagnoses, prevents and treats caries. However, this specialization does not require long-term study in higher education institutions.

Important! Today, the profession of a dentist is considered obsolete. Their main responsibilities are handled by junior medical staff. Therapists are responsible for diagnosis and treatment.

A dentist-therapist is a general specialist.

The pediatrician can also place fillings. However, its focus is the elimination of oral diseases in children.

Additional information! A dentist of any specialization is familiar with all manipulations. Therefore, it is not always important which doctor puts the fillings. The procedure may be necessary when performing work of a different nature: prosthetics, orthodontic treatment and other manipulations.

Responsibilities of a dental therapist

A dentist-therapist is a specialist with a higher medical education. He is obliged:

Additional information! In addition to basic services, the therapist is required to monitor the condition of the equipment, take and store medications, and teach hygiene to patients. An important point is constant professional development, improvement of professional skills, and introduction of new treatment methods.
