RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Musculoskeletal disability (MSD) has been identified as having a negative impact on oral health. Patients with MSD have a greater burden of medical expenses and are expected to have an Economic unmet dental need (UDN). This study aimed to conduct a multifactorial analysis based on the Andersen model to determine the extent to which MSD contributes to inequitable dental care use. METHODS: This study used data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey VIII. The study population was 17,903 adults aged 19 years and older. All data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows version 26 and the level of statistical significance was set at 0.05. RESULTS: The people with MSD activity limitations were rare as only 3% in this study population. There were significant differences in sex and education as predisposing factors, income, and marital status as enabling factors, and current smoking, daily brushing, and MSD activity limitation as need factors for experiencing economic UDN. MSD activity limitation was associated with 1.5-fold increased odds of Economic UDN with a fully adjusted Anderson's Behavior Model. CONCLUSIONS: This finding suggests poorer access to dental care among adults with MSDs owing to financial difficulties. It is necessary to explore various ways to address oral health inequalities among adults with MSD activity limitations.

This study aimed to identify and determine the level of factors associated with the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of oral health professionals working in Primary Health Care (PHC) in Brazil. A cross-sectional survey was carried out among 96 dentists and 65 dental assistants working in the Family Health Strategy (FHS) in six municipalities in the metropolitan area of Salvador (BA), Brazil. The HRQoL was evaluated using the 36-item Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36). Higher mean scores in the SF-36 physical component summary were associated with younger age, post-graduate education in public health, and frequent leisure time. The mental component summary was associated with frequent leisure time, > 40 weekly working hours, suitable dental offices, satisfaction with colleagues, and satisfaction with working in PHC. The HRQoL level of oral health professionals working in primary health care in PHC in Brazil was comparable to those found in the available literature and associated with several modifiable factors. Incidentally, a literature search found few studies using the SF-36 to assess the HRQoL of oral health workers, and those found were produced outside the main scientific centers.
O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar e determinar o nível de fatores associados à qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde (QVRS) de profissionais de saúde bucal que atuam na Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS) no Brasil. Foi realizado um estudo de corte transversal com 96 cirurgiões-dentistas e 65 auxiliares em saúde bucal que atuam na Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) em seis municípios da região metropolitana de Salvador (BA), Brasil. A QVRS foi avaliada usando o 36-item Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36). Escores médios mais altos no resumo do componente físico do SF-36 foram associadas a idade mais jovem, pós-graduação em saúde pública e tempo de lazer frequente. O resumo do componente mental foi associado a tempo de lazer frequente, > 40 horas semanais de trabalho, consultórios odontológicos adequados, satisfação com os colegas e satisfação em trabalhar na APS. O nível de QVRS dos profissionais de saúde bucal que atuam na APS no Brasil foi comparável aos encontrados na literatura disponível e associado a vários fatores modificáveis. Incidentalmente, uma pesquisa bibliográfica encontrou poucos estudos que utilizam o SF-36 para avaliar a QVRS de trabalhadores da saúde bucal; e os encontrados foram produzidos fora dos principais centros científicos.
El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar y determinar el nivel de los factores asociados a la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) de los profesionales de salud bucal que actúan en la Atención Primaria de Salud en Brasil. Se realizó un estudio transversal con 96 cirujano dentista y 65 auxiliares de salud bucal que actúan en la Estrategia Salud de la Familia en seis municipios de la región metropolitana de Salvador, Brasil. La CVRS se evaluó mediante el 36-item Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36). Las puntuaciones medias más altas en el resumen del componente físico del SF-36 se asociaron con una edad más joven, títulos de posgrado en salud pública y tiempo libre frecuente. El resumen del componente mental se asoció con tiempo libre frecuente, > 40 horas de trabajo por semana, consultorios dentales adecuados, satisfacción con los colegas y satisfacción con el trabajo en la Atención Primaria de Salud. El nivel de CVRS de los profesionales de la salud bucal que actúan en la Atención Primaria de Salud en Brasil fue comparable a los encontrados en la literatura disponible y se asoció a varios factores modificables. Una búsqueda bibliográfica encontró pocos estudios que utilizan el SF-36 para evaluar la CVRS de los trabajadores de la salud bucal; y los encontrados estaban fuera de los principales centros científicos.
RESUMO
Aim: to analyze, between 2019-2021, the quantitative changes in dental emergencies (DE) in Brazil and its regions. Materials and Methods: Data collected in the Primary Care Health Information System (SISAB) from 2019 to 2021. The DE represented by dentoalveolar abscess (DAA) and toothache (TA). 2019 was the control (non-pandemic), and 2020-21 the exposure year. Durbin-Conover's Friedman and Post-Hoc tests used a significance level of 5%. The data's organization used the percentage difference to facilitate analysis. Results: For Brazil in 2021, the percentage difference with 2019 suggests that DAA (-2.16%, p=1.0) and TA (+14.94%, p=0.064) returned to values after fall of 2020. The South region, in 2020, had no decrease in DAA (-5.48%, p=0.436) and TA (+3.7%, p<0.001) in 2020, and an increase in both in 2021 (DAA: +26.86%, p<0.001; TA: +51.06%, p<0.001). Discussion: In 2021, in Brazil, limited elective access and resumption of DAA and increase in TA suggest worsening the oral health and quality of life. The DAA and TA results in the South region do not provide plausible evidence to understand the unchanged values in 2020 and the considerable increase in 2021. Conclusion: Regardless of the pandemic, elective access still struggles to offer universal acessing, equitable, and the need of investments are essentials to prevent public services from becoming just gateways for relieving pain and suffering.
Objetivo: analisar, entre 2019-2021, as alterações quantitativas nas urgências odontológicas (UO) no Brasil e suas regiões. Materiais e Métodos: Dados coletados no Sistema de Informação em Saúde da Atenção Básica (SISAB) no período de 2019 a 2021. A representação das UO foi pelo abscesso dento-alveolar (ADA) e dor de dente (DD). O ano de 2019 foi o ano de controle (não pandêmico) e 2020-21 os de exposição. Os testes Friedman e Post-Hoc de Durbin-Conover utilizaram nível de significância de 5%. Os dados foram organizados pela diferença percentual para facilitar a análise. Resultados: Para o Brasil em 2021, a diferença percentual com 2019 sugerem que o ADA (-2,16%, p=1,0) e a DD (+14,94%, p=0,064) retomaram os valores, após a queda de 2020. A região Sul, em 2020, não teve queda em ADA (-5,48%, p=0,436) e DD (+3,7%, p<0,001) em 2020, e aumento em ambos em 2021 (ADA: +26,86%, p<0,001; DD: +51,06%, p<0,001). Discussão: Em 2021, no Brasil, o limitado acesso eletivo e a retomada da ADA e aumento da DD sugerem piora na saúde bucal e na qualidade de vida. Os resultados de ADA e DD na região Sul não apresentam evidências plausíveis para compreender a inalteração de valores em 2020 e o considerável aumento em 2021. Conclusão: Independentemente a pandemia, o acesso eletivo ainda luta para ser universal, equânime e os investimentos precisam ser retomados para evitar que os serviços públicos se tornem em apenas portas de entrada de alívio dor e sofrimento.
RESUMO
Many factors contribute as facilitators of or barriers to adolescents' use of dental services. Guided by the expanded Andersen model for dental service utilization, the aim of this study was to identify factors associated with the use of dental services among adolescents ages 12-16 in south Mexico City (n = 247). Adolescents answered a questionnaire on predisposing factors (age and gender), enabling factors (socioeconomic status, oral health support, parental years of education, and previous dental treatments), and psychosocial and behavioral factors (attitudes towards oral health; knowledge of gingivitis; alcohol, drug, and tobacco use; and depressive symptoms), and they underwent a visual clinical exam to determine their need factors (caries and gingivitis). The adolescents reported whether or not they had attended a dental visit in the last year for any reason. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate these factors. Having oral health support increased the odds of a dental visit by 2.69 (95% CI = 1.24-5.84). Previous dental treatment increased the odds of a dental visit by 2.25 (95% CI = 1.12-4.52). The presence of depressive symptoms reduced the odds of a dental visit by 4% (OR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.94-0.99). Enabling and psychosocial factors of oral health support and previous dental treatment were positively associated with the utilization of dental services, while depressive symptoms were negatively associated.

RESUMEN Durante el embarazo, los cambios fisiológicos incrementan el riesgo de patologías orales, como periodontitis, gingivitis, lesiones de caries, erosión dentaria y granulomas piógenos. Por lo tanto, es fundamental realizar una atención oportuna para mantener la salud bucal de las mujeres en estado de gestación. Objetivo: Describir las características de las atenciones preventivas y de recuperación de la salud bucal en mujeres embarazadas de los centros de salud públicos del Perú. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal, basado en datos secundarios de atención en odontoestomatología durante el año 2017. Se analizaron las variables trimestre de embarazo, rango de edad materna, tipo de procedimiento preventivo y recuperativo, región y condición del tratamiento. Los datos fueron analizados en el programa RStudio y los resultados se presentaron en tablas con frecuencias relativas y absolutas. Resultados: Fueron realizados 35 523 procedimientos preventivos, de los cuales 37,3 % se dieron en el segundo trimestre; 21,8 % corresponden a examen estomatológico; y 21,7 %, a instrucción de higiene oral; 69,8 %, al grupo de 18-29 años; y 15,5 %, a la región Junín. Se desarrollaron 4265 procedimientos recuperativos, de los cuales 39,0 % se dieron en el segundo trimestre; 53,1 % corresponden a destartraje; y 18,9 %, a consulta estomatológica; 61,7 %, al grupo de 18-29 años; y 16,25 %, a la región Huánuco. Conclusión: Un mayor número de mujeres embarazadas accedieron a cuidados preventivos en comparación con el acceso a procedimientos recuperativos de la salud bucal; y la tasa de abandono fue predominante en los dos casos. Ambos procedimientos se realizaron con mayor frecuencia durante el segundo trimestre, en regiones altoandinas y en madres adultas jóvenes.
ABSTRACT During pregnancy, physiological changes increase the risk of oral pathologies, such as periodontitis, gingivitis, caries lesions, dental erosion and pyogenic granulomas. Therefore, it is essential to provide timely care to maintain the oral health of pregnant women. Objective: To describe the characteristics of preventive and recovery oral health care in pregnant women in public health centers in Peru. Materials and methods: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study based on secondary data on odontostomatology care during 2017. The variables trimester of pregnancy, maternal age range, preventive and recuperative procedure, region, and treatment condition were analyzed. The data were analyzed in the RStudio program, and the results were presented in tables with relative and absolute frequencies. Results: 35,523 preventive procedures were performed, 37.3% in the second trimester; 21.8% corresponded to stomatological examination; and 21.7% to oral hygiene instruction; 69.8% in the 18-29-year age group; and 15.5% in the Junin region. There were 4265 recovery procedures, 39.0 % in the second trimester; 53.1 % corresponded to dental scaling and 18.9 % to stomatological consultation, 61.7 % in the 18-29-year age group, and 16.25 % in the Huánuco region. Conclusion: A more significant number of pregnant women accessed preventive care compared to access to oral health recovery procedures, and the dropout rate was predominant in both cases. Both procedures were performed more frequently in high Andean regions and young adult mothers during the second trimester.

RESUMO
Introducción: Cuba se ha caracterizado por enviar a diversos países delegaciones de salud, llamadas "misiones médicas". Sin embargo, el interés de los futuros profesionales de formar parte de esas delegaciones no se ha investigado. Objetivos: Caracterizar la disposición hacia la colaboración médica internacional e identificar los factores asociados en estudiantes cubanos de Estomatología. Métodos: Se realizó una investigación transversal, analítica de datos secundarios, en estudiantes de todos los años del curso académico 2018-2019, pertenecientes a ocho universidades. La variable dependiente fue el reporte de la disposición de ir a misiones médicas. Se calcularon las razones de prevalencia e intervalos de confianza al 95 por ciento. Resultados: Participaron 1174 estudiantes, de los cuales 830 (71 por ciento) estuvieron dispuestos a cumplir misiones médicas. Existió una mayor disposición hacia la colaboración médica conforme aumentaba la edad (RPa: 1,02; IC 95 por ciento: 1,00-1,04; p = 0,044); así como, en los estudiantes que reportaron presión familiar para estudiar la carrera (RPa: 1,17; IC 95 por ciento: 1,09-1,26; p < 0,001). Aquellos que reportaron buenas notas antes de ingresar a la universidad (RPa: 0,83; IC 95 por ciento: 0,77-0,91; p < 0,001), los de solvencia económica (RPa: 0,90; IC 95 por ciento: 0,90-0,98; p = 0,019) y los que estaban cursando el tercer y cuarto años académicos (RPa: 0,93; IC 95 por ciento: 0,88-0,97; p = 0,003) fueron los de menor disposición para colaborar; ajustado por el sexo y la universidad. Conclusión: Existe una elevada disposición hacia la colaboración médica internacional y está asociada a múltiples aspectos sociales y educativos(AU)
Introduction: Cuba has been characterized by sending health delegations to various countries, called "medical missions". However, the interest of future professionals in joining those delegations has not been investigated. Objectives: Characterize the disposition towards international medical collaboration and identify the associated factors in Cuban students of Stomatology. Methods: A cross-sectional research and secondary data analytics was carried out in students of all years of the academic year 2018-2019, belonging to eight universities. The dependent variable was the report of the willingness to go on medical missions. Prevalence ratios and 95 percent confidence intervals were calculated. Results: 1174 students participated, of which 830 (71 percent) were willing to fulfill medical missions. There was a greater willingness towards medical collaboration as age increased (RPa: 1.02; 95 percent CI 1.00-1.04; p = 0.044); as well as, in students who reported family pressure to study the career (RPa: 1.17; 95 percent CI 1.09-1.26; p < 0.001). Those who reported good grades before entering college (RPa: 0.83; 95 percent CI 0.77-0.91; p < 0.001), those of economic solvency (RPa: 0.90; 95 percent CI 0.90-0.98; p = 0.019) and those who were in the third and fourth academic years (RPa: 0.93; 95 percent CI 0.88-0.97; p = 0.003) were those with the least willingness to collaborate; adjusted by sex and college. Conclusion: There is a high disposition towards international medical collaboration and it is associated with multiple social and educational aspects(AU)

Introdução: A análise dos serviços primários quanto ao seu grau de orientação à Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), a partir da mensuração de seus atributos, é essencial para a efetividade da assistência. Objetivo: Avaliar a presença e a extensão dos atributos integralidade e acesso de primeiro contato nos serviços odontológicos primários do município de Juiz de Fora (MG), sob a perspectiva de cirurgiões-dentistas. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado por meio da aplicação online do Instrumento de Avaliação da Atenção Primária (PCATool-Brasil Saúde Bucal) para dentistas.Resultados: O atributo acesso de primeiro contato obteve baixo desempenho (5,2), enquanto a integralidade obteve alto desempenho em seus dois componentes. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que os serviços odontológicos primários de Juiz de Fora (MG) estão orientados à APS sob ponto de vista da integralidade. Contudo, carecem de melhor planejamento e novas políticas que garantam acesso, haja vista a sua baixa orientação.
Introduction: The analysis of primary services regarding their degree of orientation to Primary Health Care (PHC), based on the measurement of their attributes, is essential for the effectiveness of care. Objective: To evaluate the presence and extent of the integrality and first-contact access attributes in primary dental services in the city of Juiz de Fora (MG), from the perspective of dentists. Method: This is a cross-sectional study carried out through the online application of the Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCATool-Brazil Oral Health) for dentists. Results: The first contact access attribute had low performance (5.2), while integrality had high performance in its two components. Conclusion: It was concluded that the primary dental services in Juiz de Fora (MG) are oriented to PHC from the point of view of integrality. However, they lack better planning and new policies that guarantee access, given their low orientation.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Most studies on factors influencing dental attendance are cross-sectional and focus on specific age groups. The associations between private ancillary health insurance, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity with dental attendance were examined in three cohorts of Australian women of different ages using multiple waves of data over similar time periods. METHODS: Data from 10 233, 12 378 and 7892 women born in 1973-1978, 1946-1951 and 1921-1926 participating in the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health were used. Poisson regression using generalized estimating equations was used to investigate factors associated with self-report of not visiting the dentist in the 12 months before completing each wave. RESULTS: The role of dental non-attendance was higher in women without insurance (versus those with insurance) in all cohorts with adjusted rate ratios (RR) of 1.52 95% CI 1.48-1.57, RR 1.45 95% CI 1.41-1.49 and RR 1.32 95% CI 1.28-1.36 in the 1973-78, 1946-51 and 1921-26 cohorts respectively. Current smokers at any intensity (versus never smokers) had a higher risk of non-attendance and the risk was strongest for women in the 1946-51 cohort who smoked ≥20 cigarettes/day (RR 1.35 95% CI 1.30-1.41). Compared with low-risk drinkers, non-drinkers were more likely to be non-attenders, but only in the two older cohorts. Women who were overweight or obese (versus healthy weight) were more likely to be non-attenders in all cohorts, with the risk of non-attendance higher with increasing BMI. CONCLUSIONS: This study emphasizes the continued need to address socioeconomic inequities in access to dental care, along with strategies to overcome barriers for those who are obese or smoke. In this study, barriers to access existed for women of all ages, indicating that interventions need to be appropriate across age groups.

Objetivo: reconocer la asociación entre el acceso a atención odontológica y la autopercepción de salud bucal, entendida como buena, regular o mala, según valoración subjetiva, en mujeres adultas trabajadoras sexuales. Métodos: scoping review durante octubre de 2022 en EMBASE (Elsevier), LILACS y PUBMED. Se tuvo en cuenta la guía de métodos de Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), así como la extensión PRISMA para Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Se incluyeron estudios de corte transversal que incluían como actores de estudio a mujeres trabajadoras sexuales y los temas que aquí se abordan. La calidad de los estudios se evaluó mediante la herramienta New Castle-Ottawa. Resultados: se identifcaron 48 artículos de los cuales tres fueron finalmente incluidos en la síntesis de los resultados. La población de los estudios incluidos estuvo centrada en trabajadoras sexuales de diferentes lugares como Suiza, China e India, alrededor de las cuales se abordó el acceso a servicios de atención odontológica y la autopercepción de salud; igualmente, fue común el abordaje detemas de salud sexual. Se evidenciaron barreras económicas, sociales, culturales en el acceso a atención odontológica en trabajadoras sexuales, asimismo la salud autopercibida de las mismas fue interpretada como buena. Conclusión: se evidenció una limitada cantidad de información sobre el acceso a servicios de salud bucal por parte de trabajadoras sexuales con respecto a la información disponible en salud sexual. Por este motivo, es relevante realizar más estudios que tengan en cuenta el componente de salud bucodental en trabajadoras sexuales, teniendo en cuenta los riesgos y vulnerabilidades a las que se encuentran expuestas.
Objective: To recognize the association between access to dental care and self-perception of oral health in terms of subjective assessment as good, regular/average, or bad/poor, in adult women sex workers. Methods: A scoping review during October2022 in EMBASE (Elsevier), LILACS and PUBMED. This study takes into considerationThe Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) method guide and the PRISMA extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The current study also includes cross-sectional studies that considered variables like sex workers, access to dental care, and self-perceived health. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the New Castle-Ottawa tool. Results: Forty-eight articles were identifed, of which three were fnally included in the synthesis of the results. The population of the included studies was focused on sex workers from diferent places such as Switzerland, China and India, the issue of access to dental care services and self-perception of health was also common addressing sexual health issues, these studies identifed economic, social, and cultural barriers in access to dental care for sex workers; also, their self-perceived health was interpreted as good. Conclusion: The limited amount of information regarding access to oral health services by sex workers, regarding information found in terms of sexual health, was evidenced; for this reason, it is important to carry out more studies that consider the oral health component in sex workers, considering the risks and vulnerabilities to which they are exposed.

Abstract Objective: To assess the knowledge, dental anxiety, and expectations regarding dental services during the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and Methods: The respondents were Indonesian citizens above 18 years old. An online Google survey was administered using a structured questionnaire with a snowball sampling technique. Survey items comprised knowledge related to COVID-19, dental anxiety assessed using the modified DAS (Dental Anxiety Scale) and expectations regarding dental services using four dimensions of dental service quality. All questionnaires were tested for reliability and indicated acceptable and good agreement. The data were analyzed descriptively. Results: A total of 553 responses were analysed. Most respondents were female (72.9%), 76.7% knew of recommendations to postpone dentist visits and 86.8% knew methods of preventing COVID-19 transmission. More than 70% of respondents knew the precaution procedures in the dental office during COVID-19, and only 27.9% had moderate-severe anxiety. Most respondents' expectations regarding dental services during the pandemic era were related to the quality domain of reliability and responsiveness. Conclusion: Respondents knew about COVID-19 transmission and prevention, emergency conditions warranting a visit to the dentist and the procedures used at the dental office. Most respondents stated that they were not anxious about visiting a dentist during the pandemic. The respondents expect the dentist to provide sufficient information to improve oral health and treatment plan.

Resumo: No Brasil, houve expansão da cobertura de serviços odontológicos na atenção primária à saúde (APS), e a ênfase do trabalho dos profissionais mudou para incluir mais esforços na prevenção e no diagnóstico. Entretanto, pouco se sabe sobre a influência da cobertura do Programa Bolsa Família no uso desses serviços. Esta pesquisa avaliou a associação entre cobertura municipal do Programa Bolsa Família e uso de serviços odontológicos. Este estudo ecológico, realizado com dados dos 5.570 municípios brasileiros, estimou, por meio de regressões logísticas, o impacto da variação de cobertura do Programa Bolsa Família, das Estratégias Saúde da Família (ESF) e das equipes de saúde bucal (EqSB) no número de procedimentos odontológicos restauradores, coletivos, preventivos e exodontias realizados via Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) entre os períodos 2007/2008 e 2010/2011. Os percentuais de municípios em que houve aumento das taxas de procedimentos preventivos, coletivos, restauradores e exodontias foram de 46%, 59,8%, 52,5% e 44,2%, respectivamente. No modelo ajustado, em municípios com maior cobertura do Bolsa Família houve menos chances de aumentar a ocorrência de procedimentos coletivos (OR = 0,91; IC95%: 0,79-1,04) e preventivos (OR = 0,92; IC95%: 0,80-1,05) e mais chances de elevar as taxas de procedimentos restauradores (OR = 1,11; IC95%: 0,97-1,28) e exodontias (OR = 1,10; IC95%: 0,95-1,27). A expansão na taxa de cobertura das EqSB esteve associada significativamente a uma chance maior de aumento do número de procedimentos preventivos, restauradores e exodontias. Conclui-se que a cobertura das EqSB foi a principal variável associada à ampliação da quantidade de procedimentos odontológicos realizados no serviço público.
Abstract: In Brazil, there has been an expansion of the coverage of dental services in primary health care (PHC), and the focus of the services has changed to include more efforts in prevention and diagnosis. However, little is known about the influence of the coverage of the Brazilian Income Transfer program on the use of dental services. Our study evaluates the association between municipal coverage of the Brazilian Income Transfer Program and the use of dental services. This ecological study conducted with data from the 5,570 Brazilian municipalities estimates, via logistic regressions, the impact of the coverage of the Brazilian Income Transfer program, the Family Health Strategies (FHS), and the oral health teams on the number of restoration, colective, prevention, and dental extraction procedures performed by the Brazilian Unified National Health System (SUS) between the periods 2007/2008 and 2010/2011. The percentage of municipalities that increased the rates of prevention, colective, restoration, and extraction procedures was 46%, 59.8%, 52.5%, and 44.2%, respectively. In the adjusted model, municipalities with increased coverage of Brazilian Income Transfer program were less likely to increase colective (OR = 0.91; 95%CI: 0.79-1.04) and prevention (OR = 0.92; 95%CI: 0.80-1.05) procedures, and they were more likely to increase rates of restoration (OR = 1.11; 95%CI: 0.97-1.28) and dental extraction (OR = 1,10; 95%CI: 0.95-1.27) procedures. The increase in the coverage rate of the oral health teams was significantly associated with a higher chance of an increase in prevention, restoration, and extraction procedures. We conclude that the coverage of oral health teams was the main variable associated with the increase in dental procedures performed in the public service.

En el modelo ajustado, los municipios con aumento de la cobertura de Programa Bolsa Familia tuvieron menos probabilidades de aumentar procedimientos colectivos (OR = 0,91; IC95%: 0,79-1,04), y preventivos (OR = 0,92; IC95%: 0,80-1,05), y más probabilidades de aumentar las tasas de procedimientos restauradores (OR = 1,11; IC95%: 0,97-1,28) y exodoncias (OR = 1,10; IC95%: 0,95-1,27). El aumento en la tasa de cobertura de EqSB se asoció significativamente con una mayor probabilidad de aumento en procedimientos preventivos, restauradores y exodoncias. Se concluye que la cobertura de las EqSB fue la principal variable asociada al aumento de los procedimientos odontológicos realizados en el servicio público.
RESUMO
Abstract This ecological study assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on completed treatments (CTs) and referrals during urgent dental visits to primary health care units in Brazil, and their associations with socioeconomic, geodemographic, and pandemic index factors in Brazilian municipalities. The difference in rates of procedures 12 months before and during the pandemic was calculated. Data were extracted at baseline from health information systems of all municipalities that provided urgent dental care (n = 5,229 out of 5,570). Multiple logistic regression predicted the factors associated with referrals and CTs. The number of dental urgencies increased from 3,987.9 to 4,272.4 per 100,000 inhabitants. The rates of referrals decreased in 44.1% of the municipalities, while 53.9% had lower rates of CTs. Municipalities with a greater number of oral health teams in the primary health care system (OR = 1.52, 95%CI:1.21-1.91) and with specialized services (OR = 1.80, 95%CI:1.50-2.16) were more likely to decrease referrals during the pandemic. Higher HDI and GDP per capita were associated with a larger decrease in referrals and smaller decrease in CTs. The calamity generated by the long pandemic period resulted in a greater demand for urgent visits. Less developed and larger cities seem to have been more likely to not complete treatments during urgent visits in primary dental care units in times of calamity. Primary dental care offices in smaller and less developed municipalities should be better equipped to provide appropriate assistance and to improve the problem-solving capacity of dental services during emergencies.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze specialized dental care through access, demand and the work processes provided by the CEO's, using secondary data from the cycles of the PMAQ-CEO. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional study using public domain data. Variables of interest were selected from the external evaluation instrument data matrices and were grouped in categories. The categories were geographic distribution, structural, human resources, work processes and access and coordination. Results: The total of 932 CEO's were evaluated in 2014 and 1,042 in 2016, most of them type II, present in the Northeast region. In both cycles, the highest average of dentists worked in the endodontic specialty (2.4 professionals per CEO) and the lowest in oral medicine (0.8 professionals per CEO). Of the two cycles, 91.5% of the CEO's had a manager, 79.5% performed action planning activities and 74.5% realized internal self-assessment processes. There was an increase in the mean number of days to be seen at the CEO in all analyzed specialties (p<0.001) and 85.2% of the CEO's managers reported that there is a reference for oral cancer confirmed cases. Conclusion: Between the PMAQCEO cycles the number of CEO has increased, but there are still a big pent-up demand and the presence of care gaps. However, an expansion and improvement of the CEO's actions was evidenced, mainly related to the work processes.

Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the sense of coherence (SOC) of parents/guardians and the use of dental services by children who are 12 years old. Methods This is a cross-sectional study conducted in the eastern zone of the city of Manaus, with 358 children enrolled in the 7th grade in the municipal public school system. Data collection was performed through self-administered questionnaires sent to parents/guardians, which contained questions about socioeconomic conditions, use of dental services by children and Antonovsky's SOC-13 scale. Data were examined by descriptive and bivariate analysis, using the Chi-square test, with a 5% significance level. Results Of the 358 children, 58.4% were female; in addition, 75.4% of the parents/guardians self-reported to be brown and 39.9% of them had a family income of ½ to 1 minimum wage. SOC was categorized as strong SOC and weak SOC by the median. The association between strong or weak SOC and the use of dental services in terms of frequency (p= 0.839) and reason for last visit (p= 0.384), was not significant. Conclusion It was concluded that SOC of parents/guardians and utilization of dental services by children were not associated.

O "Programa Nacional de Melhoria do Acesso e Qualidade da Atenção Básica PMAQ-AB" foi lançado em 2011 pelo Ministério da Saúde, com objetivo de induzir a ampliação do acesso e a melhoria da qualidade da Atenção Primária em Saúde (APS) no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). O programa foi organizado em quatro fases que se complementam e conformam um ciclo contínuo: adesão e contratualização; desenvolvimento; avaliação externa e recontratualização. Com esse desenho, o PMAQ-AB buscou superar desafios para a qualificação da APS. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever, analisar e compreender o desempenho das Equipes de Saúde Bucal (ESB) participantes do PMAQ-AB, por meio dos procedimentos odontológicos realizados, comparando os achados entre os ciclos e entre as regiões brasileiras. Utilizaram-se dados secundários do 2º e 3º ciclos do PMAQ-AB, ocorridos entre 2013 e 2019. Os dados foram obtidos na fase de avaliação externa, que envolveu entrevista com dentistas sobre o processo de trabalho das equipes. Este trabalho resultou em três artigos científicos. O primeiro e segundo artigo utilizaram dados do 3º Ciclo. No primeiro artigo realizou-se uma análise descritiva de 26 procedimentos odontológicos realizados na APS. Cada procedimento realizado atribuiu uma pontuação à ESB, sendo a pontuação final a soma do número de procedimentos realizados. Estas pontuações foram comparadas entre as regiões do país. Os resultados revelaram que as equipes realizaram, em média, 19,45 (±3,16) dos 26 procedimentos odontológicos analisados. As ESB do Sul, Sudeste e Nordeste realizaram um número maior de procedimentos, enquanto as equipes do Norte e Centro-Oeste realizaram, em média, menos procedimentos. No segundo artigo, foram avaliados 13 procedimentos (itens) relacionados a procedimentos odontológicos espontâneos, preventivos, cirúrgico, restauradores, protético e de câncer bucal. A Teoria da Resposta ao Item (TRI) foi utilizada para estimar as pontuações de desempenho das ESB, com base nos itens. A relação entre os escores de desempenho e as variáveis contextuais (Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano - IDH, e Índice de Gini) nas regiões brasileiras foi analisada por mapas temáticos e correlação de Pearson (p<0,05). Os procedimentos com maiores níveis de dificuldade e menos frequentemente realizados foram aqueles relacionados a próteses dentárias e monitoramento do câncer bucal. Os itens foram mais apropriados para discriminar ESB com baixo desempenho, e relativamente ineficazes para diferenciar aquelas com melhor desempenho. Os mapas temáticos mostraram uma relação direta com o IDH (p < 0,0001) e uma relação indireta com o índice de Gini (p= 0,0001). No terceiro artigo realizou-se um estudo comparativo do desempenho das equipes das ESB que participaram dos dois últimos ciclos de avaliação do PMAQ-AB, analisando 11 procedimentos odontológicos coincidentes nestes ciclos. A TRI foi utilizada para estimar os escores de desempenho das ESB em cada ciclo e esses escores foram comparados pelo teste de Wilcoxon (p ≤ 0,05), para o Brasil e regiões brasileiras. Os achados indicam que houve melhora nos escores de desempenho das ESB entre os dois ciclos no Brasil e nas regiões brasileiras. As regiões Nordeste, Centro-Oeste e Norte apresentaram as maiores evoluções. Porém, diferenças regionais ainda persistem, sendo necessário estruturar e melhorar as políticas públicas a fim de expandir e qualificar o processo de trabalho dos serviços de saúde bucal, promovendo uma melhor distribuição regional das ESB, a fim de reduzir as desigualdades.
The "National Program for Improvement of Primary Care Access and Quality - PMAQAB" was launched in 2011 by the Ministry of Health, aiming to induce the expansion of access and improvement of the quality of Primary Health Care (PHC) in the Unified Health System (SUS). The program was organized into four phases that complement each other and form a continuous cycle: adherence and contractualization; development; external evaluation and recontractualization. With this design, the PMAQ-AB sought to overcome challenges for the qualification of PHC. The objective of this study was to describe, analyze, and understand the performance of the Oral Health Teams (OHT) participating in PMAQ-AB, through dental procedures performed, comparing the findings between cycles and between Brazilian regions. Secondary data from the second and third cycles of PMAQ-AB, which occurred between 2013 and 2019, were used. The data were obtained in the external evaluation phase, which involved interviewing dentists about the work process of the teams. The first and second article used data from the third cycle. In the first article, a descriptive analysis of 26 dental procedures performed in the PHC was done. Each procedure performed attributed a score to the OHT, and the final score was the sum of the number of procedures performed. These scores were compared among the regions of the country. The results revealed that the OHTs performed, on average, 19.45 (±3.16) of the 26 dental procedures analyzed. The OHTs from the South, Southeast and Northeast performed a higher number of procedures, while the teams from the North and Midwest performed, on average, fewer procedures. In the second article, 13 procedures (items) related to spontaneous, preventive, surgical, restorative, prosthetic, and oral cancer dental procedures were evaluated. Item Response Theory (TRI) was used to estimate the OHT performance scores based on the items. The relationship between performance scores and contextual variables (Human Development Index - HDI, and Gini Index) in Brazilian regions was analyzed by thematic maps and Pearson correlation (p<0.05). The procedures with higher levels of difficulty and less frequently performed were those related to dental prostheses and oral cancer monitoring. The items were more appropriate to discriminate low performing OHT and relatively ineffective to differentiate those with better performance. The thematic maps showed a direct relationship with HDI (p < 0.0001) and an indirect relationship with Gini index (p= 0.0001). In the third article, a comparative study of the performance of the ESB teams that participated in the last two PMAQ-AB evaluation cycles was carried out, analyzing 11 dental procedures coincident in both cycles. IRT was used to estimate the performance scores of the OHT. After obtaining the performance scores of the second and third cycles, these scores were compared by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (p ≤ 0.05) in Brazil and Brazilian regions. The findings indicate that there was improvement in the performance scores of the ESBs between the two cycles in Brazil and in the Brazilian regions. Northeast, Midwest, and North regions showing the greatest evolutions. However, regional differences still persist, and it is necessary to structure and improve public policies in order to expand and qualify the work process of oral health services, promoting a better regional distribution of the ESB in order to reduce inequalities.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE Measure the prevalence of use of dental services in the previous year and associated factors among 31-year-old adults from a birth cohort of 1982. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study that analyzed a birth cohort of 1982 from the city of Pelotas. In 1997, a systematic sample of 27% of the city's census sectors was defined and all households in these sectors were visited, where 1,076 15-year-old adolescents were interviewed. For the oral health studies, 900 of these individuals were randomly selected and followed up at 24 and 31 years of age. The study used data collected from 523 individuals in 2013 (at 31 years old). The outcome was visit to the dentist (use of dental services) in the previous year. Demographic factors (sex), socioeconomic factors (income, education), and oral health factors (reason and type of service, self-perception of oral health, dental pain and caries experience - DMFT) were used as independent variables. Prevalence ratios were estimated using Poisson regression. RESULTS The prevalence of use of dental services in the previous year was 55.3% (95%CI: 51.0-59.5%). In the adjusted analysis, the reason and type of service, self-perception of oral health, and DMFT were associated with the outcome. A stronger association was found with use of dental services in individuals who visited for prevention and used the private service, who were satisfied with their oral health, and who had more caries experiences. CONCLUSION 55.3% of the cohort sample used dental services in the previous year. Individuals who visited the dentist of private service for preventive reasons, who were very satisfied with their oral health, used these services in a higher proportion. In addition, a higher DMFT index also led to higher use of services.
RESUMO OBJETIVO Mensurar a prevalência de uso de serviços odontológicos no último ano e os fatores associados em adultos de 31 anos pertencentes à coorte de nascimentos de 1982. MÉTODOS Estudo transversal, aninhado na coorte de nascimentos de Pelotas de 1982. Em 1997, uma amostra sistemática de 27% dos setores censitários da cidade foi realizada e todos os domicílios desses setores foram visitados, onde 1.076 adolescentes de 15 anos foram entrevistados. Para os estudos de saúde bucal foram sorteados aleatoriamente 900 desses indivíduos, que foram acompanhados também aos 24 e 31 anos. O estudo utilizou dados coletados de 523 indivíduos em 2013 (aos 31 anos). O desfecho foi a ida ao dentista (uso do serviço) no último ano. Fatores demográficos, (sexo), socioeconômicos (renda, escolaridade) e de saúde bucal (motivo e tipo de serviço da consulta, autopercepção de saúde bucal, dor e experiência de cárie - CPOD) foram utilizados como variáveis independentes. As razões de prevalência foram estimadas usando a regressão de Poisson. RESULTADOS A prevalência de uso de serviços odontológicos no último ano foi de 55,3% (IC95%: 51,0 -59,5%). Na análise ajustada, o motivo e tipo de serviço da consulta, a autopercepção de saúde bucal e o CPOD foram associados ao desfecho. Foi encontrada maior associação com a utilização de serviços odontológicos em indivíduos que visitaram por prevenção e usaram o serviço privado, satisfeitos com a sua saúde bucal e que tinham maior experiência de cárie. CONCLUSÃO 55,3% da amostra da coorte utilizaram os seviços odontológicos no último ano. Os indivíduos que visitaram o dentista por motivo preventivo, em consulta privada, que estavam muito satisfeitos ou satisfeitos com sua saúde bucal utilizaram em maior proporção esses serviços. Além disso, o maior índice de CPOD também levou ao maior uso.

Resumo Estudo exploratório de abordagem qualitativa que buscou analisar os conhecimentos, percepções e práticas de equipes de Saúde Bucal e de agentes comunitários de saúde acerca das políticas públicas que regulamentam a utilização de plantas medicinais e fitoterápicos no contexto das práticas integrativas e complementares, incluindo sua incorporação, reconhecimento, desafios e possibilidades no cotidiano local do SUS. Foram selecionadas oito Unidades Básicas de Saúde no município de Itabuna, Bahia, Brasil, com a realização de entrevistas com oito cirurgiões-dentistas, oito auxiliares/técnicos de saúde bucal e oito agentes comunitários de saúde, totalizando 24 participantes. Para a análise da dados, empregou-se a técnica do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo. Os conhecimentos, percepções e práticas dos atores envolvidos no estudo sobre as políticas públicas de inserção das plantas medicinais no SUS mostraram-se permeados pela cultura hegemônica, pela formação em saúde tradicional e fragmentada, pelo (des)interesse administrativo do município e por subjetividades individuais que são produzidas e reproduzidas nos serviços de saúde bucal da APS local.
Abstract This exploratory and qualitative study aimed to analyze the knowledge, perceptions and practices of Oral Health Teams and Community Health Agents about public health policies that regulate the use of medicinal plants and herbal medicines in the context of integrative and complementary practices, including their incorporation, recognition, challenges and possibilities in the local routine of the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). Eight Basic Health Units were selected in the municipality of Itabuna, Bahia, Brazil, and interviews were conducted with 8 dentists, 8 oral health assistants/technicians and 8 community health agents, totaling 24 participants. For data analysis, the Collective Subject Discourse technique was used. The knowledge, perceptions and practices of the actors involved in the study about public policies for the introduction of medicinal plants in the SUS were permeated by the hegemonic culture, traditional and fragmented health education, the administrative (un)interest of the municipal authorities, and individual subjectivities that are produced and reproduced in the local oral health services and the primary care.
RESUMO
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo transversal foi identificar adequações quanto à utilização de Equipamentos de Proteção Individual e organização do processo de trabalho no atendimento odontológico ambulatorial no Paraná durante o primeiro ano da pandemia da Covid-19. A amostra de conveniência incluiu 1.105 profissionais de saúde bucal (cirurgiões-dentistas, técnicos e auxiliares em saúde bucal) durante o primeiro ano da pandemia (agosto a outubro de 2020). Formulário on-line (Google Formulários®) foi enviado por e-mail pelo Conselho Regional de Odontologia. As medidas de enfrentamento da Covid-19 foram comparadas entre os tipos de serviços odontológicos: ambulatorial do Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS (Atenção Primária, Centro de Especialidades Odontológicos e Pronto Atendimento), clínica privada, e outros (Sistema S, forças de segurança, sindicatos, hospitais públicos e privados e clínicas de ensino). Os profissionais dos serviços ambulatoriais do SUS relataram com maior frequência que: suspenderam atendimentos eletivos, evitavam gerar aerossóis e trabalhavam a quatro mãos. Nas clínicas privadas, utilizavam frequentemente teleorientação e telemonitoramento. Nos 'outros serviços', houve maior proporção de redução das horas de trabalho e autoclavagem de peças de mão após cada atendimento. Conclui-se que, apesar da alta adequação às medidas de enfrentamento da Covid-19, houve diferença na prática profissional nos diferentes tipos de serviços odontológicos.
ABSTRACT This cross-sectional study aimed to identify adjustments regarding the use of Personal Protective Equipment and the organization of the work process in outpatient dental care in Paraná during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The convenience sample included 1,105 oral health professionals (dental surgeons, oral health assistants, and dental hygienists) during the first year of the pandemic (August to October, 2020). An online form (Google Forms®) was sent by email by the Regional Council of Dentistry. COVID-19's measures were compared between the types of dental services: 'outpatient clinic of the Unified Health System - SUS' (Primary Care, Dental Specialty Center, and Emergency Care), 'private clinic' and 'other services' (Sistema S, security forces, trade union, public and private hospitals, and teaching clinics). Professionals from SUS outpatient services reported more frequently: that they suspended elective care, avoided generating aerosols, and worked four-handed. Professionals from 'private clinics' used teleorientation and telemonitoring more regularly. In the 'other services', there was a more significant proportion reduction in work hours and handpieces autoclaving after each service. It is concluded that, despite the high adequacy of the measures to combat COVID-19, there was a difference in professional practice among the different types of dental services.
RESUMO
Introdução:Uma ampla gama de fatores pode contribuir para facilitar ou restringir o uso de serviços de saúde bucal pela população. A compreensão desses fatores pode contribuir para a identificação das parcelas da população com maior dificuldade de acesso e auxiliar na elaboração de políticas públicas de saúde voltadas para populações específicas de forma equânime. Objetivo:Analisar a produção científica acerca dos fatores associados ao uso de serviços odontológicos públicos no Brasil.Metodologia:Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa da literatura, com busca de artigos originais publicados entre 2011 e 2021, nas bases Medline, Lilacs, SciELO e BVS. De um total de 724 estudos, 10 artigos atenderam aos critérios de elegibilidade propostos e foram selecionados para a revisão.Resultados:entre as crianças os fatores associados ao uso de serviços odontológicos públicos foram: condição socioeconômica, raça, escolaridade da mãe e necessidade de tratamento. Nos adultos: gênero, raça, renda, nível de escolaridade, histórico de dor de dente, cárie, avaliação do tratamento recebido como regular, autopercepção de saúde bucal e de necessidade de tratamento. E entre idosos: raça, renda, nível de escolaridade, uso de serviços para fins curativos, uso de prótese e autopercepção da saúde bucal. Conclusões:Sugerem-se estudos longitudinais para elucidação de relações de causalidade e estudos com a população adolescente. São necessárias mudanças na assistência odontológica no país, de forma a superar a perspectiva focalizada de um SUS para pobres e alcançar uma Atenção à Saúde Bucal baseada nos princípios da universalidade, integralidade e equidade (AU).
Introduction:A wide range of factors can contribute to facilitate or to limit the use of oral health services by people. The understanding of these variables can contribute to identify the segments of the population with more difficulty of access and help the development of public health policies related to specific groups of people evenly. Objective:This paper aims to analyze the scientific production about the factors associated with the public dental services in Brazil. Methodology:An integrative review about the literature in the area was conducted, in search for papers published between 2011 and 2021, in Medline, Lilacs, SciELO and BVS. From 724 studies, 10 researches fulfilled the proposed eligibility criteria and were selected to the review. Results:Among the children, the factors associated with the use of public dental services were: socioeconomic condition, race, mother Ìs educational degree and the need for treatment. In the case of adults: gender, race, income, level of education, medical history of toothache and dental caries, regular evaluation of the treatment received, the self-perception of oral health and of the need of treatment. Among the elderly people: race, income, level of education, the use of services for curative purposes, the use of prosthesisand the self-perception of oral health. Conclusions:It is suggested the development of longitudinal studies in order to elucidate the relations of causality and of studies with the teenagers. Changes in dental assistance in the country are necessary, in order to overcome the perspective of a SUS to poor people and to reach a Primary Dental Healthcare based in the principles of universality, integrality and equity (AU).

Resumo Introdução Há escassos estudos sobre qualidade da atenção em saúde bucal. Objetivo Avaliar associações entre condições de estrutura e processo com indicadores de desempenho em saúde bucal na Estratégia Saúde da Família do Recife. Métodos Estudo transversal, quantitativo e avaliativo, usando dados secundários de 2014 do Ministério da Saúde. Foram calculados testes de Qui-Quadrado e estimativas de Odds Ratio, com regressão logística simples e múltipla, considerando nível de significância de 5% e intervalo de confiança de 95%. Resultados Das 112 equipes de saúde bucal (ESB) avaliadas, equiparação das ESB com as equipes mínimas da Estratégia Saúde da Família e possuir levantamento de escolares com necessidades de saúde bucal, associaram-se ao maior valor de cobertura de primeira consulta odontológica programática (OR = 4,30, IC = 1,33−13,93; OR = 27,47, IC = 2,24−336,34, respectivamente), enquanto estar equiparada, ser ESB modalidade II e garantir agendamento de retorno para a continuidade do tratamento associaram-se ao maior valor da razão entre tratamentos concluídos e primeiras consultas odontológicas programáticas (OR = 5,35, IC = 2,01−14,20; OR = 3,70, IC =1,33−10,27; OR = 5,03, IC = 1,42−17,78, respectivamente). Conclusão Os resultados sugerem que tais padrões de qualidade sejam priorizados para potencializar maior acesso e resolutividade das ESB.
Abstract Background Only a few studies have addressed the quality of oral health care. Objective To assess the association of the structure and process conditions with oral health performance indicators in the Family Health Strategy of Recife. Method A cross-sectional quantitative and evaluative study based on secondary data referring to 2014 from the Ministry of Health. The Chi-Square test and the Odds Ratio, with simple and multiple regression, were calculated considering a significance level of 5% and confidence interval of 95%. Results Among the 112 oral health teams (OHT) assessed, there was an association of the OHT parity with the minimum Family Health Strategy teams and the survey of schoolchildren with oral health needs with the highest coverage value of the first dental programmatic appointment (OR = 4.30 = CI = 1.33-13.93, OR = 27.47, IC = 2.24-336.34, respectively). In turn, the presence of parity, modality II OHT, and scheduled guarantee return for the treatment continuity were associated with the highest ratio between completed treatment and first dental appointment (OR = 5.35, CI = 2.01-14.20; OR = 3.70, CI = 1,33-10,27; OR = 5,03, CI = 1,42-17,78, respectively). Conclusion The results suggest the targeting of such quality standards to enhance both the access and resilience of the OHT.
