Oral problems, especially those with painful conditions, are capable of causing psychological and emotional changes that can interfere directly and significantly in the performance of the work activities of any and all workers. The objective of this study was to investigate the oral health condition of the workers of industries of the city of Varginha/MG, through an epidemiological survey carried out within the industries. It is a cross-sectional study, with random sample, stratified by industry, composed of 225 subjects. A questionnaire was used to verify the socioeconomic conditions of the family, schooling, referred morbidity, use of the health services, self-perception and impacts on the oral health of the workers, as well as a clinical examination to verify the oral health conditions, all based on the survey of SB Brasil 2010. The examinations were carried out under natural light at the facilities of each of the companies. The CPOD, CPI, PIP and use and need of dental prosthesis rates were verified. EpiBuco 2004, Epi Info 2000, BioEstat 5.3, Microsoft Excel 2016 and Microsoft Access 2016 were used to tabulate the results. The 95% confidence interval, Spearman correlation test, mean, percentage and standard deviation. A CPOD index of 19.90 was found for individuals between 45 and 64 years of age, the latter being the most relevant, which can be considered as high. Regarding periodontal problems, bleeding occurred in 2.51% of the sample, 6.21% in relation to the calculation and 4.27% in relation to the periodontal pocket, all in the age group of 20 to 34 years. In relation to PIP, the most significant value was 2.24% in the population of 35-77 years, with loss of insertion of 4 and 5 mm. With respect to edentulism, only 5.78% of the individuals used some type of superior prosthesis and 4% some type of inferior prosthesis and, as for the necessity of prosthesis, 86.67% did not need any type of superior prosthesis and 80, 44% did not need any type of lower prosthesis. Socioeconomic conditions showed that most of the workers had a family income of up to 4 minimum wage and their education was mostly full tertiary education and, secondly, higher education. Regarding oral morbidity and the use of dental services, 46.22% carried out their last consultation in the private network, so that 48.88% of the workers sought the dentist for the last time for prevention, evidencing a high level of zeal for their health oral. Most workers (averages greater than 85%) did not complain of interference of their oral health in their daily activities. It was possible to conclude that, when compared to the literature, the workers surveyed present satisfactory oral health conditions, however, the high DMFT index should be taken into account, so as to consider preventive measures and health education by companies so that it does not have negative changes with the passage of the years and the other problems continue with low incidence. In addition, it is interesting that the public health service of the municipality adopts new public policies, as well as health actions aimed at the working public, since it represents the greater part of the municipal economyapplication/pdfAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Trabalhadores - Saúde bucalSaúde PúblicaOdontologia PreventivaCIENCIAS DA SAUDE::ODONTOLOGIADissertaçãoPereira, Alessandro Aparecido
