Resumo: The purpose of this study is to discuss the physician’s role in the maintenance of oral health, without intending to replace the dentist, but trying to offer basic information for a correct procedure in the initial approach and guidance of patients. This paper underscores that it is essential for the physician to have basic knowledge about both the temporary and the permanent dentitions, as well about the main affections of some oral tissues. We suggest prophylactic measures to prevent dental decay, such as dietetic counseling, removal of bacterial plaque by means of correct dental hygiene, with brushing and the use of dental floss, and increase of tooth resistance through the appropriateuse of sodium fluoride. As the first person to convey this information to the patient, the physician can contribute significantly to the development of healthier dentitions.

Sem pretender substituir o odontólogo, o presente trabalho oferece informações básicas para um correto procedimento na abordagem inicial e no encaminhamento de pacientes; enfatiza a necessidade de o médico ter conhecimentos básicos sobre as dentições temporária e permanente, e as principais afecções dos tecidos bucais; relaciona os cuidados profiláticos, orientando a prevenção das cáries através do aconselhamento dietético, da remoção da placa bacteriana com a higienização correta dos dentes através da escovação e uso do fio dental, e do aumento da resistência dos dentes com uso apropriado de flúor. O médico, como primeiro veículo dessas informações, estará contribuindo para o desenvolvimento de dentições mais sadias.HCPA/FAMED/UFRGS2022-06-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Article"A Convite dos Editoresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/125269Clinical & Biomedical Research; Vol. 20 No. 1 (2000): Revista HCPAClinical and Biomedical Research; v. 20 n. 1 (2000): Revista HCPA2357-9730reponame:Clinical and Biomedical Researchinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/125269/85194http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBenatti, Rosange Maria A.
