Licensing procedure
Article 12 of Federal Law No. 99-FZ of May 4, 2011, which defines the general licensing rules in Russia, establishes that all types of medical activities are classified as licensed. A specific list of areas of dentistry in the license is given in an additional regulatory document - Government Decree No. 291 of April 16, 2012. It includes the following areas of work activity of a doctor in dentistry:
- hygienic;
- general;
- children's;
- area of general practice;
- orthopedic;
- preventive;
- therapeutic;
- surgical
Each of these areas requires a separate license. To obtain it, the applicant will have to study the list for a dental office license, which describes the necessary equipment. The issuance of such documents is carried out by Roszdravnadzor and relevant departments of regional executive authorities.
To obtain a license, the applicant provides the regulatory agency with a package of documents confirming that he meets the established standards and has purchased the necessary equipment in quantities not less than the established one. Based on the results of consideration of the application, a decision is made to grant a license or refuse to issue it. If the decision is positive, the validity period of such a document is not limited in accordance with Part 4 of Article 9 of 99-FZ.
Required documents
To obtain a license to operate a dental clinic, the applicant will need to draw up an application according to the established template. It is given in the appendix to Roszdravnadzor Order No. 3166 dated May 5, 2014. You will need to attach a list of documents to it that will confirm that you have fulfilled the current requirements for licensing orthodontists or other dentists and are ready to start working. The list of such documents includes:
- notarized copies of the company’s constituent documentation;
- copies of documents confirming the legal right to use premises suitable for the provision of services and having an area not less than the established one - for example, a certificate of ownership or a lease agreement;
- copies of documents indicating that the applicant has the legal right to use medical equipment and equipment in an amount not less than necessary to perform work in the chosen field of dentistry;
- information on the compliance of the existing premises with sanitary and epidemiological safety standards;
- copies of registration certificates for the equipment used;
- copies of diplomas, certificates and certificates confirming that the head of the organization and its doctors have the required level of education, qualifications and work experience in the relevant profile that is not less than established - for example, this is a physiotherapy room for licensing a dental organization or a functional diagnostics room;
- copies of diplomas or certificates of staff members who will be involved in the maintenance of medical equipment, or a copy of the agreement with the organization that will provide such maintenance;
- a copy of the receipt confirming payment of the state fee for the provision of the service for issuing a license;
- a list of documents provided as part of the package.
List of required equipment
One of the important licensing conditions that the applicant must meet is the equipment of dentistry for licensing, that is, the availability of medical equipment in an amount no less than necessary to provide quality services. This issue is regulated by a separate legal act - order of the Ministry of Health dated December 7, 2011 N 1496n. Appendix No. 11 to this order provides the current standards for equipping different types of dental offices for licensing. This section of the document contains standards for:
- general practice offices as part of a dental clinic;
- therapeutic, surgical, orthopedic dentistry offices as part of a specialized clinic;
- a dental laboratory operating as part of a specialized clinic;
- an orthodontic, physiotherapeutic, x-ray room as part of a dental clinic, as well as a functional diagnostics room and a mobile unit;
- centralized sterilization unit as part of the clinic.
The required dental equipment for a license given in the document is differentiated for organizations in which doctors provide inpatient and outpatient care to patients.

Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation No. 1496n dated December 7, 2011 Appendix No. 11 Standard for equipment of the department (office) of general practice of a dental clinic
Equipment for dental organizations: regulatory framework
So, the list of main regulatory documents that regulate the standards for equipping a general dentistry office for licensing and other types of dental organizations includes:
- Federal Law of November 21, 2011 No. 323-FZ, dedicated to issues of protecting the health of citizens;
- Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for medical organizations SanPiN 2.1.3.2630-10, approved by Resolution of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of May 18, 2010 No. 58;
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 16, 2012 No. 291, establishing the procedure for licensing medical activities;
- current Order of the Ministry of Health dated December 7, 2011 No. 1496n, which defines the rules for the provision of dental care to adult citizens by doctors;
- Order of the Ministry of Health of November 13, 2012 No. 910n, establishing the rules for the provision of dental care to children by doctors;
- new Order of the Ministry of Health dated July 31, 2022 No. 786n, introducing an updated procedure for the provision of dental services to the adult population by doctors.
New rules for equipping dentistry from 2022
From January 1, 2022, a new list of dental office equipment for licensing will come into force in Russia, approved by Order of the Ministry of Health No. 786n. The procedure for its operation is determined by an additional regulatory document - Order of the Ministry of Health dated June 9, 2022 No. 560n, which also comes into force on January 1, 2022.
The new equipment rules involve the following changes to the current procedure:
- In addition to the required number of doctors, each dental office must install its own dental X-ray machine with a digital image receiver. This technique will require the hiring of specialized personnel, including radiologists, and consequently, the permitted organizational and legal forms of organizations that are allowed to engage in this type of work activity will also change. Individual entrepreneurs are prohibited from working with such installations: they will have to re-register as an LLC;
- operating LLCs, whose list of working equipment for licensing a dental office previously included only a visiograph, will be required to purchase a panoramic X-ray machine. This means they will need a larger room, since each installation will require at least 4 square meters of additional space.
The operation of additional working equipment must be carried out in accordance with SanPiN 2.6.1.1192-03, approved by Resolution of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of February 18, 2003 No. 8: they regulate the rules of work for doctors in X-ray rooms. In addition, when making changes to the standard list of equipment for equipping a dental laboratory for licensing, all organizations will need to re-issue documents for the equipment, which, of course, will require additional time and financial costs.

Requirements for dental equipment
One of the key standards that a dental organization must satisfy in order to obtain a license to conduct its activities is compliance with established standards for equipping it with equipment and tools. The current list of drugs and equipment for organizing a dental office is contained in Resolution No. 1496n. It contains lists of required items, the number of which is calculated depending on various factors, including:
- number of doctors' jobs;
- the number of divisions operating in the organization;
- the required number of types of equipment per organization;
- number of patient visits;
- number of doctor positions;
- number of assistant jobs;
- number of shells;
- other criteria.
Some types of positions are acquired by the organization at its own discretion if necessary - but not less than the minimum values.
General requirements
According to Resolution No. 1496n, the preparation of a list of equipment for dental offices for licensing must be carried out in accordance with the type of organization and the profile of its working activities. The appendices to this regulatory document separately formulate standards for the following types of dental institutions.

Dental clinic | Department or office of therapeutic dentistry |
Department or office of surgical dentistry | |
Department or office of orthopedic dentistry | |
