The view of intervention bioethics in Family Health Program dentist’s work

Abstract

This article is part of a doctorate thesis about the dentist´s work Family Health strategy, which analyses the activities of public professionals from their point of view. It is discussed how his work expresses the referential of intervention bioethics, which considers the search for integrality, health justice and social inclusion as basic implications to accomplish citizenship. The study interviewed an administrative staff member and 17 dentists. The access routines to service, referral services, establishment of a bond and popular participation and social control were analyzed. The access routines showed that they were appropriate for lines of care, but still inefficient to achieve universality. The referral service presents deficiencies, and popular
participation and social control do not happen concretely, still needing improvement by stimulating people to participate in local health councils, spaces to build citizenship.
