Screening studies on dental morbidity of elderly people in the urban and rural population of the Republic of Kazakhstan were conducted. Three age groups were investigated in the districts of Almaty and Almaty oblast: middle-aged (45–59 years old), elderly (60–79 years old) and the oldest (80 years and above). A high loss of teeth was revealed, which was 79.3% in the urban and 90.6% in the rural population of the Republic of Kazakhstan, respectively. Complete absence of teeth on the upper jaw was most common in rural and city dwellers in the oldest and elderly age groups. A high frequency of complete absence of teeth was revealed in elderly rural residents (44.9%). The production of removable prostheses with a double layer base improves the quality thereof. Indications for these prostheses have been determined. In conclusion, the need for orthopedic dental care was the highest in rural areas. Complete absence of teeth on the upper jaw was most common in the oldest and elderly age groups among rural and urban dwellers. A high frequency of complete absence of teeth was revealed among elderly rural residents (44.9%). Orthopedic treatment of persons with complete absence of teeth requires improvement of this assistance. The use of removable prostheses with a two-layer base improved the quality of manufactured prostheses, providing comfort and functional efficiency for patients. Indications for the manufacture of soft-lined prostheses have been determined and clarified.
