The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of odontology professionals, such as dental surgeons, technicians and assistants in oral health, from the public network of the city of Maringá/PR, about the knowledge of the notification of interpersonal and self-inflicted violence. This is a descriptive, cross-sectional and analytical study that used a semi-structured questionnaire with objective, open, personal and specific questions, conducted from September to November 2019, with 40 professionals from the public network. The study assessed the degree of knowledge about the violence notification form, the ability of professionals to correctly diagnose and conduct cases of violence, and also the need for the development of permanent health education programs on this theme for Odontology professionals of the Maringaense public network. The results showed that 12 (30%) of the professionals have already identified cases of violence. Physical violence 34 (85%) and psychological violence 33 (82.5%) were the most cited by respondents. The most observed signs and symptoms in cases of violence were physical injuries 30 (75%), followed by psychological damage 28 (70%), and developmental deficiency 12 (30%). Regarding the violence notification form sheet of violence only 8 (20%) of the evaluated had knowledge about it, and only 1 (2,5%) used it, and knew how to fill it correctly. Therefore, a closer approach is required between the Odontology professionals and the theme addressed, so that they can diagnose and conduct cases of violence properly.
