A cárie é a doença crônica mais comum na infância e leva a perdas dentárias ao longo da vida. Entretanto, a percepção dos cirurgiões-dentistas (CDs) quanto sua prevenção, ainda é pouco explorada. O objetivo do estudo foi explorar as percepções dos CDs que trabalham no Sistema Único de Saúde, no que diz respeito à prevenção da cárie dentária, contribuindo para políticas públicas efetivas, a partir da identificação dos fatores que levam os CDs a uma maior conscientização preventiva. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 18 CDs atuantes nos municípios do Paraná. As entrevistas foram realizadas face a face, conduzidas por um roteiro e gravadas. A transcrição foi realizada de forma manual e analisada segundo o método de análise de conteúdo. Os resultados apontaram treze fatores facilitadores à prevenção, sendo quatro deles fatores emergentes, não descritos anteriormente pela literatura. Dentre os principais fatores que influenciam a prevenção da cárie: consciência preventiva dos CDs, formação acadêmica do profissional e organização do serviço. Assim, a implementação da prevenção depende de vários fatores, como a formação recebida por estudantes de Odontologia, mudanças no atendimento público odontológico e nas condutas adotadas pelos CDs e políticas públicas efetivas que envolvam a comunidade.

Antipsychotic Therapy

Mental disorders are an important problem in every national health care service. The importance of psychotic disorders is not only their frequency but also their long-term character, recurrence, association with other diseases, costs and consequences for the family and society. Psychotic disorders (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorders and depression) and their treatment may result in serious oral diseases. These disorders and medications used to treat them may lead to a series of oral complications and side effects, predominantly high prevalence of carious and extracted teeth, periodontal disease, inadequate oral hygiene, xerostomia, burning mouth syndrome, bad breath and gustatory sense dysfunction. Psychotic disorders affect oral and dental health in two ways. Behavioural changes affect the oral hygiene maintenance and lead to bad habits and attitudes towards oral health. Antipsychotic therapy has adverse effects on oral health. Literature data suggest that oral health in patients with psychotic disorders is poor and highlight the need to develop specific preventive programmes, which would be aimed at improving behaviour of this population at risk in the oral health care system.
