Abstract(s)
A presença do médico dentista na equipe multidisciplinar da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva é um assunto relativamente novo. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo pontuar os riscos que as infecções bucais podem trazer aos doentes imunocomprometidos internados na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva, e sua co-relação com doenças sistêmicas e pneumonia nosocomial. Tambem foram destacadas medidas preventivas e de manutenção da saúde bucal. Após a conclusão da revisão bibliografica verificou-se a necessidade da criação de um protocolo de atendimento e uma correta aplicação do mesmo por um profissional capacitado.
