Abstract(s)
A Medicina Dentária constitui uma área do conhecimento médico incumbida de zelar, não só, pelo seu domínio de atuação clínico específico, mas também pelo bem-estar do paciente a nível sistémico nas suas várias dimensões: física, mental e social.
Neste contexto, encontra-se sujeita a um processo de constante transformação, no qual o desenvolvimento técnico prossegue a par da evolução do conhecimento e dos princípios éticos que guiam estes profissionais de Saúde.
Este trabalho propõe-se a ilustrar cada uma destas valências, utilizando como base para tal, o trabalho clínico e científico realizado pelo autor na Clínica Dentária Universitária da Universidade Católica Portuguesa, buscando caracterizá-lo segundo parâmetros clínicos e científicos considerados relevantes. Para isso é efectuada uma análise estatística dos atos clínicos realizados pelo autor procedendo-se à caracterização da amostra populacional assistida, bem como à interpretação, tipificação e resolução de algumas situações de âmbito clínico.
Procura ainda retratar o Estado da Arte e os respectivos fundamentos decorrentes da evidência científica, fornecendo uma leitura epidemiológica e clínica da população servida, e proporcionando um olhar informado sob as situações clínicas encontradas e os desafios científicos a ter em consideração.
Dentistry, as a medical field, not only is it responsible for the zeal of its own specific area of clinical intervention, but also the patient's well being at the systemic level and at its various dimensions: physical, mental and social. That being, it finds itself suffering constant evolution, requiring a concomitant transformation of its clinical techniques, scientific knowledge and ethical grounds for the professionals who practice it. This paper proposes itself to illustrate each of these competences, using for it, the clinical and scientific work carried out by the author at the University Dental Clinic of the Portuguese Catholic University, seeking to characterize it according to clinical and scientific parameters that assert themselves to be relevant to such endeavor. To attain such goal, a statistical analysis of the clinical acts performed by the author and of certain idiosyncrasies of the served population sample is made. By the same token, an interpretation, illustration and resolution of clinical cases is also performed. It seeks to illustrate the current state-of-the-art and its respective concepts, which derive themselves from scientific evidence, aiming at providing an epidemiological and clinical reading of the assisted population, as well as rendering an informed look of clinical situations encountered and of the scientific challenges to be considered.
