The present-day system for assessment of the activities of dental clinics does not reflect their efficacy, for it does not take into consideration the population disease incidence and changes in this parameter. The author suggests that the incidence of dental diseases be assessed from the records of consultations at health institutions, as exemplified by a random sample of 2515 primary consultations at dental clinics. The cause of the consultation was classified in accordance with the International Disease Classification, 9th Revision. The author claims that such mode of assessment of the physicians' and clinics' work efficacy, will improve the quality of the diagnosis.

In 12 patients with jaw-bones fractures an investigation of calcium and magnesium metabolism was carried out with a view of elucidating its possible relation to the course of repair of the bone tissue. A reciprocal dependence in the calcium and magnesium ions exchange in lesions of the jaws and an intensified accumulation of these ions by the time of the initial formation of the secondary callus were revealed. Investigations have confirmed the important role of magnesium in the metabolism of the bone tissue and a study of two diets with different magnesium content justified recommending its daiy allowance of about 550 mg for the given patients' population.

In 31 patients (males, aged 21 to 50) with maxillary fractures basal metabolism was investigated during 24 days by the method of gas exchange. From the moment of the injury and up to the 18th day its level is shown to be by 19.9--30.6 per cent higher than in healthy persons and later on falls down to the normal value.
