Resumo: The trend in dentistry is to incorporate less invasive methods. Therefore, we believe that low intensity laser therapy (LILT) can be a treatment option, as it has proven beneficial effects. The present study aims to trace the teaching pattern and teachers' perception of the use of low intensity laser therapy in the Dentistry undergraduate course at the Federal University of Espírito Santo. In addition, we intend to analyze the presence of laser therapy subject in Brazilian dental programs. The research was based on an analytical, cross-sectional, and descriptive study. A questionnaire was applied to 44 professors of dentistry at the Federal University of Espírito Santo. From this study, it was obtained that 9 percent of all the teaching staff stated that they use lasers in some of the activities of the subjects they teach. This low percentage was justified by the teachers due to the lack of financial resources to obtain the equipment. It was observed that most of the teaching staff have already known about the laser, 45.4 percent during their graduate studies. When the curricular structure of the 461 Brazilian higher education institutions of dentistry was evaluated, it is noted that 13 offer laser therapy in their curricular program. It can be concluded that there is a considerable level of knowledge about lasers among the teaching staff. However, it is observed a lack of dissemination of information among the different disciplines of the analyzed course.

Por isso, acredita-se que a terapia a laser de baixa intensidade (TLBI) seja uma opção de tratamento, na medida em que apresenta efeitos benéficos comprovados. O presente estudo tem o objetivo de traçar o padrão de ensino e a percepção dos professores sobre o uso de terapia a laser de baixa intensidade no curso de graduação em Odontologia da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo. Além disso, busca analisar a presença da disciplina de laserterapia nos cursos de Odontologia brasileiros. A pesquisa foi realizada a partir de um estudo analítico, transversal e descritivo, com a aplicação de um questionário a 44 professores da Odontologia da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo. A partir deste estudo obteve-se que 9 porcento de todo corpo docente afirmou utilizar o laser em alguma das atividades das disciplinas que ministram, sendo que esta baixa porcentagem foi justificada pelos professores devido à falta de recurso financeiro para obtenção dos aparelhos. Foi observado que a maior parte do corpo docente já teve conhecimento sobre o laser, sendo 45,4 porcento durante a pós-graduação. Quando avaliada a estrutura curricular das 461 instituições de ensino superior brasileiras de Odontologia em atividade, 13 oferecem a disciplina de laserterapia em sua matriz curricular. Pode-se concluir que existe um considerável nível de conhecimento sobre o laser entre os docentes. Porém, nota-se pouca disseminação de informação nas diferentes disciplinas do curso estudado.Associação Brasileira de Ensino Odontológico2022-10-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revabeno.emnuvens.com.br/revabeno/article/view/188510.30979/revabeno.v22i2.1885Revista da ABENO; Vol. 22 No. 2 (2022); 1885 Revista da ABENO; Vol. 22 Núm. 2 (2022); 1885 Revista da ABENO; v. 22 n. 2 (2022); 1885 2595-02741679-5954reponame:Revista da ABENO (Online)instname:Associação Brasileira de Ensino Odontológico (ABENO)instacron:ABENOporenghttps://revabeno.emnuvens.com.br/revabeno/article/view/1885/1243https://revabeno.emnuvens.com.br/revabeno/article/view/1885/1244http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAmbrósio, Marcos Flávio Spínola Jesus, Eduarda Barboza Layber deBarros, Liliana Aparecida Pimenta de 2022-12-21T02:13:20Zoai:ojs.revabeno.emnuvens.com.br:article/1885Revistahttps://revabeno.emnuvens.com.br/revabeno/indexONGhttps://revabeno.emnuvens.com.br/revabeno/oairevabeno@gmail.com2595-02741679-5954opendoar:2023-01-13T09:48:34.621711Revista da ABENO (Online) - Associação Brasileira de Ensino Odontológico (ABENO)false
