Abstract:

Assessed the use of dental services on a regular basis between the residents of Montes Claros (MG), as well as aspects related to this use. Cross-sectional study conducted with complex probabilistic sample by conglomerates Logistic regression was used (OR/IC95%) with a significance level of 5. Of the 2582 study participants, 761 required and obtained access to the services for less than a year. Of these, 262 (35.8%) made use of the services of the form regular/routine. The use of dental services on a regular basis was greatest among individuals in the age group \"≥ 18 ≤ 37\"; with schooling \"equal to or greater than 9 years\"; who classified your oral health, General Health reported and the appearance of the teeth and gums as \"excellent/good\"; who reported \"no or little pain\" on teeth and gums over the last six months; It reported that the \"provider of assistance had adequate skills\"; that \"always/often\" received information about oral hygiene and diet/nutrition. In addition, this use was lower among those who ranked the time to ask questions about the dental problem or treatment as \"regular/bad/terrible\". It is concluded that the use of dental services on a regular basis was relatively low, being associated with personal traits, subjective health conditions and characteristics related to services.
