“…This knowledge is even more important in relation to the elderly, considering that one of the main reasons why this group does not seek dental service is their own lack of perception of their needs 18 , together with social, cultural, lifestyle and economic issues 19 .

“…Os dentes, lábios, gengivas, bochechas e língua são muito vulneráveis à ação de bactérias, vírus e fungos, que podem desencadear infecções causadoras de grandes desconfortos [5].
