Resumo: Dentistry has shown a historic evolution marked by different professionalization stages and dental services improvement, culminating in the expansion of the oral health team through the creation of auxiliary categories such as Oral Health Auxiliaries (OHA), Oral Health Technicians (OHT), Dental Prosthesis Auxiliaries (DPA) and Dental Prosthesis Technicians (DPT). Thus, utilizing a data collection documentary research about the professional numbers in each of these categories, this work aims to characterize the distribution national panorama of OHA, DPA, OHT and DPT, in addition to the distribution profile of these professionals concerning the number of Dentists (D). The data show that 205,888 dental auxiliaries are working in Brazil, most of them OHAs and OHTs, which are concentrated in the states of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais. On the other hand, among the Brazilian regions, the Southeast has the highest percentage of professionals in all auxiliary categories in the country. In another perspective, considering the relationships between the total number of Dentists and professionals in each auxiliary category, regional differences between Brazilian states are evident, with values of 1 D/0.42 OHA; 1 D/0.10 OHT; 1 D/0.019 DPA and 1 D/0.069 DPT at the national level. Therefore, it appears that the panorama of professional distribution for the different auxiliary categories in Dentistry is still below the current needs and the data presented here may provide evidence of professional and marketing guidance for these practice areas.

Así, utilizando una encuesta de datos de investigación documental sobre el número de profesionales en cada una de estas categorías, este trabajo tiene como objetivo caracterizar el panorama nacional de distribución de ASB, APD, TSB y TPD, además del perfil de distribución de estos profesionales en relación al número de cirujanos dentales (CD). Los datos muestran que hay 205.888 asistentes dentales que trabajan en Brasil, la mayoría son ASB y TSB, que se concentran en los estados de São Paulo, Río de Janeiro y Minas Gerais. Por otro lado, entre las regiones brasileñas, el sudeste concentra el mayor porcentaje de profesionales de todas las categorías auxiliares. En otra perspectiva, considerando las relaciones entre el número total de CD y profesionales en cada categoría auxiliar, las diferencias entre estados y regiones brasileñas son evidentes, con valores de 1CD/0.42 ASB; 1CD/0.10 TSB; 1CD/0.019 APD y 1CD/0.069 TPD a nivel nacional. Por lo tanto, el panorama de la distribución profesional para las diferentes categorías auxiliares en Odontología todavía está por debajo de las necesidades actuales y los datos presentados pueden proporcionar evidencia de orientación profesional y de marketing para estas áreas de actividad.A Odontologia apresentou uma evolução histórica marcada por diferentes fases de profissionalização e de aprimoramento dos serviços odontológicos, culminando com a ampliação da equipe de saúde bucal através da criação de categorias de auxiliares como os Auxiliares em Saúde Bucal (ASBs), Técnicos em Saúde Bucal (TSBs), Auxiliares em Prótese Dentária (APDs) e Técnicos em prótese dentária (TPDs). Assim, mediante um levantamento de dados de pesquisa documental acerca dos números de profissionais de cada uma dessas categorias, este trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar o panorama nacional da distribuição de ASBs, APDs, TSBs e TPDs, além do perfil de distribuição desses profissionais em relação ao número de Cirurgiões-Dentistas (CDs). Os dados mostram que existem 205.888 profissionais auxiliares em Odontologia em exercício no Brasil, sendo a maioria deles ASBs e TSBs, os quais encontram-se concentrados nos estados de São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro e Minas Gerais. Por outro lado, dentre as regiões brasileiras o Sudeste concentra os maiores percentuais de profissionais de todas as categorias auxiliares do país. Em outra perspectiva, considerando-se as relações entre o total de CDs e de profissionais de cada categoria auxiliar, evidenciam-se diferenças entre os estados e regiões brasileiras, com valores de 1CD/0,42 ASB; 1CD/0,10 TSB; 1CD/0,019 APD e 1CD/0,069 TPD a nível nacional. Diante disso, constata-se que o panorama de distribuição profissional para as diferentes categorias auxiliares em Odontologia encontra-se ainda aquém das necessidades atuais e os dados aqui apresentados podem fornecer indícios de orientação profissional e mercadológica para essas áreas de atuação.  Research, Society and Development2020-07-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/566410.33448/rsd-v9i8.5664Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 8; e477985664Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 8; e477985664Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 8; e4779856642525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/5664/5061Copyright (c) 2020 Ernani Canuto Figueirêdo Júnior, Adeilton Félix da Silva, Andréa Nunes Oliveira, Jozinete Vieira Pereirainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFigueirêdo Júnior, Ernani CanutoSilva, Adeilton Félix daOliveira, Andréa NunesPereira, Jozinete Vieira2020-08-20T18:00:17Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5664Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:29:06.834892Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
