The study of working conditions and the quality of life (QoL) of medical workers has not lost its relevance worldwide. This highlights the need to understand the many aspects of life that may characterize physician performance and satisfaction with working conditions. This is extremely important for providing quality and safe medical care. This research aims to study dentists' lifestyles and working conditions in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the impact of these indicators on their QoL. This article presents the results of a cross-sectional survey of a sociological questionnaire conducted with the participation of 254 dentists in Kazakhstan. Only a third of dentists follow a healthy lifestyle. In total, 39% of dentists currently smoke, and 24% drink alcohol. Dentists with more than 20 years of experience have a worse QoL and have the lowest scores in all domains compared to dentists with less experience. The lowest score was scored for mental health (mean = 51.81). On all scales, dentists who worked more than 40 h a week reported decreased QoL; the lowest score was in the "mental health" domain (mean = 52.80). The QoL of dentists in Kazakhstan is negatively affected by their working hours and long working experience. Measures are necessary to improve their working conditions, work schedule planning, and mental health.
医学工作者的工作条件和生活质量（QoL）研究在全球范围内仍具有重要意义。这凸显了了解可能影响医生工作表现和对工作条件满意度的生活诸多方面的必要性。这对于提供优质安全的医疗护理极为重要。本研究旨在探讨哈萨克斯坦共和国牙医的生活方式和工作条件，以及这些指标对其生活质量的影响。本文呈现了在哈萨克斯坦254名牙医参与下进行的社会学问卷调查的横断面调查结果。只有三分之一的牙医遵循健康的生活方式。目前，总共39%的牙医吸烟，24%的牙医饮酒。与经验较少的牙医相比，有20年以上经验的牙医生活质量更差，在所有领域得分最低。心理健康得分最低（平均 = 51.81）。在所有量表上，每周工作超过40小时的牙医报告生活质量下降；最低得分在“心理健康”领域（平均 = 52.80）。哈萨克斯坦牙医的生活质量受到工作时间和长期工作经验的负面影响。有必要采取措施改善他们的工作条件、工作时间表规划和心理健康。
