[On the evaluation of the city children's dentist clinic]. / Ob otsenke raboty gorodskoy detskoy stomatologicheskoy polikliniki.

The authors offer criteria to validate the choice of a pediatric dental clinic or another treatment-and-prophylactic institution, as exemplified by Moscow, as the base for the study of therapeutic and diagnostic activity. The mean values for a number of parameters were determined: hourly loading of dentists, frequency of x-raying and physiotherapeutic procedures, sanitization of the oral cavity and teeth, etc., and deviations of the similar indexes at other outpatient clinics from these values, expressed in the mean square values. Summation of the mean square deviations with consideration for their positive or negative signs, followed by ranking of the data, helped determine an institution occupying an intermediate position, which, in author's opinion, indicates its typical character and, hence, should be preferable.
