Resumo: | This article analyzes the qualifications of dental office attendant (DOA) and dental hygiene technician (DHT) graduates, seeking to understand the importance technical courses have not only in improving their professional performance, individual and family incomes, but also their impact on these professionals' better placement in the work market. It shows that, despite the deficiencies these graduates mention, their schooling qualified them appropriately to perform their duties. However, the difficulties these professionals face in terms of collective representation, the lack of social prestige, and the low levels of professional credibility and respect they get from dentists remain hurdles to be faced. The lack of professional legitimacy that characterizes their work causes dental care assistance workers to be at the mercy of work market and health policy oscillations. The article claims that regulating these worker categories may not only lead to technical and ethical protection and to preventing professional monopoly formation, but also ensure social equality and justice norms for oral health professionals. |

Mostra que, apesar das deficiências assinaladas pelos egressos, a escola os qualificou adequadamente para o desempenho de suas funções. No entanto, as dificuldades por eles encontradas em termos de representação coletiva, a falta de prestígio social e a baixa credibilidade e respeito profissional que lhes consagram os cirurgiões-dentistas permanecem como problemas a serem enfrentados. A falta de legitimidade profissional que ainda os caracteriza faz com que os auxiliares da odontologia fiquem à mercê das oscilações do mercado de trabalho e das políticas de saúde. O artigo sustenta que a regulamentação dessas categorias de trabalhadores pode significar proteção técnica e ética, evitando a formação de monopólios profissionais e assegurando normas de eqüidade e justiça sociais para os profissionais da saúde bucal.Escola Politécnica de Saúde Joaquim Venâncio, Fundação Oswaldo Cruz2022-09-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://www.tes.epsjv.fiocruz.br/index.php/tes/article/view/177710.1590/S1981-77462007000200007 Trabalho, Educação e Saúde; v. 5 n. 2 (2007)1981-7746reponame:Trabalho, Educação e Saúde (Online)instname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://www.tes.epsjv.fiocruz.br/index.php/tes/article/view/1777/868Copyright (c) 2022 Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, Escola Politécnica de Saúde Joaquim Venânciohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLiñan, Márcia Boen Garcia Bruno, Lúcia Emília Nuevo Barreto 2022-09-20T16:12:10Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/1777Revistahttps://www.tes.epsjv.fiocruz.br/index.php/tesPUBhttps://www.tes.epsjv.fiocruz.br/index.php/tes/oairevtes@fiocruz.br1981-77461678-1007opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:45.312794Trabalho, Educação e Saúde (Online) - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
