“…The high functional dentition rate among men corroborates other Brazilian studies with similar findings 2,25,38 . The hypotheses for explaining this phenomenon could include the higher caries rate among adolescent girls as opposed to boys and the greater use of dental services by women as compared to men, both of which factors favor early tooth loss, especially due to the option for tooth extraction rather than conservative treatment among socioeconomically disadvantaged groups 2,26,38 .…”

“…O aumento no emprego de medidas preventivas como a fluoretação das águas de abastecimento público, ações coletivas em saúde bucal, consumo de escova de dente, uso de dentifrício e educação em saúde, essenciais para melhoria das condições de saúde bucal, não permite, entretanto, que se perca de vista a importância da assistência odontológica em mitigar o sofrimento e buscar a recuperação de condições de saúde bucal, considerando-se, segundo Fernandes & Peres 8 , que o acesso aos serviços odontológicos no Brasil é limitado e desigual.…”
