The surveys are important to getting primary data, and theses, when exacting analysed, provides information that guide the decision-makers. The present study was aimed to generate information on oral health conditions in the city of Bayeux/ PB, and obtain decision-making models that can be used by health managers. This research used an inductive approach, with statistical comparative procedure and technique-intensive direct observation by means of oral examinations, and extend through forms. These are constructed so as to collect data about the oral health conditions as to the caries and periodontal disease, and demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of morbidity and access to dental services. The sample was obtained by calculation for finite populations, with confinaça level of 95% being constituted by individuals at the age of 5 (n = 277) and 12 (n = 134) years old and the age groups 15-19 (n = 126), 35 to 44 (n = 64) and 65 to 74 (n = 22) years old. Data were collected by a researcher previously calibrated and analyzed using binary logistic regression, which identified and quantified the influence of variables collected on the forms with the increase of mean DMFT and the presence of some kind periodontal changes, as indicated by the CPI index . As a result, it was found that the dmft at 5 years old was 2.86 and DMFT was 4.19 para12 years old. As for the age groups, the mean DMFT were: 6.76 for 15 to 19, 19.32 for 35 to 44 and 27.32 for 65 to 74 years old. The percentage of people without any periodontal problems was higher in the age group 15-19 years (33.30%) and one with a higher percentage of periodontal pockets was the group of 35 to 44 years (35.93%). For the logistic regression model for dental caries, 212 individuals were included in the adjustment and it was verified that the variables Age (OR=1.21) and Denture Needs (OR=4.2) were risk factores for increased DMFT. The variables of Dental Time Less Than One Year (OR = 0.17) and Satisfaction "Good" With Query (OR = 0.08), were identified as protective factors. For the CPI model, 144 subjects were included in the logistic regression model for periodontal disease, and the variables Age (OR = 1.09), Rhubarb (OR = 2.23) and Income Up To 250 Reais (OR = 3.64) were risk factors for developing some type of periodontal problem. The variable Years Of Study (OR = 0.86), however, was identified as a protective factor for a healthy periodontal condition. It follows therefore that the decision-making by the municipal administration, is directed to the strategic planning of interventions that act directly on the risk factors identified in order to achieve the best indicators for dental caries and periodontal disease.
