Relevance. Inflammatory periodontal diseases, with a 68-98% prevalence, are a risk factor for developing cardiovascular diseases (CVD). There is simultaneously a low awareness of dental diseases and their role in assessing general health. The patient's understanding of the need for prevention and treatment of dental diseases is essential in the successful treatment of cardiovascular diseases. In this regard, the study of dental treatment adherence in patients with cardiovascular diseases is particularly relevant. Purpose – to study the level of adherence to dental treatment in patients with cardiovascular diseases.Materials and methods. We conducted a dental examination and survey of 121 patients aged 18 to 89 years during treatment of coronary artery disease clinical manifestations, including 48 men and 73 women. The average age of the surveyed was 65.2 ± 0.44 years. Patients completed a modified Morisky-Green questionnaire, which included four questions. We used a written questionnaire, which included 21 closed questions of the original questionnaire, to study the factors affecting adherence to dental treatment.Results. The study found that 87.6% of cardiovascular patients poorly adhered to dental treatment, 9.1% of patients were at risk, and only 3.3% had strong adherence to treatment. Only half of the respondents (52%) believed that oral diseases could affect the underlying disease course. Adherence to dental treatment did not depend on the age of the examined patients. Adherence was higher among women and those with higher education.Conclusion. The study revealed that patients with cardiovascular diseases have a high prevalence and intensity of inflammatory periodontal diseases and low adherence to their treatment. Only half of the patients know the relationship between cardiovascular diseases and inflammatory periodontal dis eases.
