Resumo:
O objetivo desse estudo exploratório foi conhecer a perspectiva dos cirurgiões-dentistas da rede de atenção básica à saúde de Florianópolis acerca da necessidade, viabilidade e interesse quanto à ampliação dos serviços de ortodontia preventiva e à implementação dos de ortodontia interceptativa nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde do município. Empregou-se um questionário estruturado para coletar as opiniões de todos os cirurgiões-dentistas da atenção básica que realizam atendimento clínico na rede. Os resultados demonstraram que: a maioria deles é favorável desde que haja uma estruturação adequada para atender à necessidade da população; que os profissionais se consideram despreparados para realizar os procedimentos necessários, de modo que haveria a necessidade de capacitações; que não haveria a necessidade de se implantar outros procedimentos de ortodontia na atenção básica além dos analisados; e que as principais dificuldades que seriam enfrentadas estariam relacionadas ao excesso de demanda e à falta de recursos humanos. Apesar destes obstáculos, a maioria dos profissionais encara como positiva e viável a ampliação/introdução desse serviço, o que favoreceria a integralidade da atenção à saúde e fortaleceria a atenção básica, melhorando assim a saúde da população.

Abstract:
The aim of this exploratory study was to understand the dentist’s network perspective about the need, feasibility and interest on the extension of preventive orthodontics services and the implementation of interceptive orthodontics in the Basic Health Care in Florianópolis. We resorted a structured questionnaire to collect the standpoint of all dentists who perform clinical care in the Basic Health in the city. The results indicate that: the majority of dentists are in favor of implementing the service, since there is an appropriate structure to attend the needs of the population; professionals consider themselves unprepared to accomplish procedures in preventive and interceptive orthodontics, so it would be necessary to perform capabilities; there would be no need to deploy other orthodontic procedures in primary care than those analyzed; and the main difficulties were related to the excess of demand in primary care and the lack of human resources. Despite of these obstacles, most of the professionals see it as positive and feasible to introduce this service, which could increase the comprehensiveness of health care and strengthen the primary care, thereby improving the health of the population.
