SCHAEFER FERREIRA DE MELLO, Ana Lúcia; REIBNITZ JUNIOR, Calvino e LORENZINI ERDMANN, Alacoque. Oral health care of the aged: good practices based on health promotion paradigm. Gerokomos [online]. 2009, vol.20, n.2, pp.65-72. ISSN 1134-928X.
It presents the elaboration of a theoretical-practical referential of good oral health care practices to the aged population, based on the principles of Health Promotion (HP). The methodological referential adopted was Grounded Theory. The theoretical-practical referential is described to guide the development of oral health care actions to the aged, in consonance with the HP paradigm defended in the Ottawa Charter according to five areas. It is necessary to consider these care practices, that conform the theoretical-practical referential here detailed, as an objective to reach, to contribute to the sustained progress in the quality of the care and, consequently, promote a transformation in oral health conditions during life course.
