          Abstract

          OBJETIVO: Investigar os fatores associados à desigualdade no uso de serviços de saúde bucal da Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF)medida pelo indicador realização de exodontia. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se um inquérito populacional de base domiciliar em dois municípios do Estado da Bahia, Brasil, com 100% de cobertura da ESF. Foram sorteados 10 setores censitários. Os domicílios foram definidos de forma sistemática. Para estimar a utilização dos serviços públicos, consideraram-se prevalência de 50%, erro amostral de 4% e intervalo de confiança de 95%. Agentes comunitários de saúde treinados entrevistaram informantes-chave, que responderam a questões sociodemográficas e de utilização dos serviços odontológicos em nome de todos os moradores do domicílio com 15 anos ou mais. Considerou-se a exodontia como desfecho principal. A razão de prevalência foi usada para aferir a associação entre exodontia e as variáveis preditoras. A razão de chances (odds ratio, OR) foi usada na análise de regressão logística multivariada. RESULTADOS: Foram coletados dados de 2 539 indivíduos, dos quais 682 (26,86%) haviam utilizado o serviço de saúde bucal da atenção básica nos últimos 12 meses. A exodontia foi realizada em 218 (31,96%) dos 682 pacientes da atenção básica. Receber benefício social (OR = 1,43; IC95%: 1,02 a 2,01), ter mais de 35 anos (OR = 1,59; IC95%: 1,12 a 2,27) e menor nível de escolaridade (OR = 1,81; IC95%: 1,27 a 2,56) foram variáveis associadas independentemente ao desfecho. CONCLUSÕES: Os resultados apontam para a permanência de desigualdades históricas na utilização dos serviços de saúde bucal. Ações intersetoriais podem ser importantes para a melhoria da saúde bucal.

          OBJECTIVE: To investigate the factors associated with inequality in the use of oral health services in the Brazilian Family Health Program (Estratégia Saúde da Família, ESF) as measured by dental extractions. METHODS: A population-based household survey was carried out in two municipalities with full coverage by the ESF in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Ten census tracts were randomly selected. Households were selected by systematic sampling. To assess the use of public services by the population, a prevalence of 50%, sampling error of 4%, and confidence interval of 95% were considered. Trained community health workers conducted key informant interviews on use of oral health services and collected demographic data for all household members aged 15 years or older. Dental extraction was the main outcome. The association between dental extraction and predictive variables was assessed using prevalence ratio, and multivar logistic regression analysis was performed using odds ratio (OR). RESULTS: Data from 2 539 people was collected. Of these, 682 (26.86%) had used primary oral health care services in the previous 12 months. Dental extraction was performed in 218 (31.96%) out of 682 primary care patients. Being assisted by social programs (OR = 1.43; IC95%: 1.02-2.01), being older than 35 years (OR = 1.59; IC95%: 1.12-2.27), and having lower education levels (OR = 1.81; IC95%: 1.27-2.56) were independently associated with the outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The present results suggest that historical inequalities of access to oral health services persist. Intersectoral actions may play an important role in improving oral health conditions.

          The concepts and principles of equity and health.

          In 1984, the 32 member states of the World Health Organization European Region took a remarkable step forward in agreeing unanimously on 38 targets for a common health policy for the Region. Not only was equity the subject of the first of these targets, but it was also seen as a fundamental theme running right through the policy as a whole. However, equity can mean different things to different people. This article looks at the concepts and principles of equity as understood in the context of the World Health Organization's Health for All policy. After considering the possible causes of the differences in health observed in populations--some of them inevitable and some unnecessary and unfair--the author discusses equity in relation to health care, concentrating on issues of access to care, utilization, and quality. Lastly, seven principles for action are outlined, stemming from these concepts, to be borne in mind when designing or implementing policies, so that greater equity in health and health care can be promoted.
