Resumo(s)
Este estudo analisa os riscos associados à atividade de prótese dentária no contexto da
pandemia da Covid-19. Ainda que estes profissionais não atuem especificamente em
contacto direto com os pacientes, fazem parte dos trabalhadores de elevada exposição
à Covid-19. A saúde oral é uma das áreas mais atingidas pela pandemia de SARS-CoV2,
devido à enorme exposição a elementos biológicos potencialmente contagiosos no diaa-
dia destes profissionais. Através de um estudo descritivo e qualitativo serão analisados
os fatores de risco no exercício de prótese dentária, no contexto da pandemia provocada
por um vírus altamente contagioso, com alta taxa de letalidade. Para o estudo, realizouse
uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o vírus, abordando as características da atividade do profissional de Técnico de Prótese Dentária, os meios de transmissão e a relação da
exposição da Covid-19 em prótese dentária. Serão analisados os principais aspetos dos
riscos de contaminação cruzada entre as clínicas dentárias e os laboratórios de prótese
e a forma como estes têm impacto nos Técnicos de Prótese. Apresentou-se uma proposta
de implementação de medidas preventivas/corretivas com a intenção de
consciencialização destes profissionais.
This study looks at the risks associated with denture activity in the context of the Covid- 19 pandemic. Although these professionals do not work specifically in direct contact with patients, they are part of the workers with high exposure to Covid-19. Oral health is one of the areas hardest hit by the SARS-CoV2 pandemic, due to the huge exposure to potentially contagious biological elements in the day-to-day lives of these professionals. Through a descriptive and qualitative study will be analyzed the risk factors in the exercise of dental prosthesis, in the context of the pandemic caused by a highly contagious virus, with a high fatality rate. For the study, a literature review on the virus was conducted, addressing the characteristics of the activity of the Dental Technician professional, the means of transmission and the relationship of Covid-19 exposure in dental prosthesis. The main aspects of the risks of cross-contamination between dental clinics and prosthesis laboratories and how these have an impact on Prosthesis Technicians will be analyzed. A proposal for the implementation of preventive/corrective measures was presented with the intention of raising awareness of these professionals.
