Abstract:

The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship of an instrument of family vulnerability with sociodemographic, dental, and spatial distribution in a given territory. The dependent variable was the classification of family vulnerability, proposed by Coelho and Savassi. The independent variables were ed based on the theoretical model proposed by Andersen. Hierarchical multiple logistic regression models were estimated. The kernel density estimator was used for spatial analysis. Subjects who lived with more than 4 people (OR = 3.46; 95% CI), who were dissatisfied with oral health (OR = 2.38; 95% CI), who were ashamed to smile and talk (OR = 3.03 , 95% CI) were more likely to be \"at risk\" in the family. Spatial analysis allowed the visualization of an area of higher concentration of \"at risk\" families. The relationship of the instrument of vulnerability analyzed with sociodemographic and dental factors, as well as the aid in the visualization and identification of more vulnerable areas, help in the knowledge of the territory for the planning of actions in oral health, and thus we conclude that such instrument can be adopted for a more equitable access by the oral health teams.
