Abstract

An exploratory, analytical and cross-sectional research was carried out in the
Stomatology Faculty of the Medical Sciences University of Camagüey from January,
2009 to January, 2010. The objective of present paper was to determine the
buccomaxillofacial emergences frequently cared at level of the primary health care,
how the general stomatologists and integral general stomatologists self-evaluated
their capability and performance to confront these complications, the major
difficulties founded by the secondary care specialists and the organization ways of
the more efficient professional overcoming to be used in keeping with results. We
used a self-evaluation questionnaire, 84 stomatologists were polled declaring that
the buccomaxillofacial emergences frequently cared were the dentoalveolar
fractures and the exodontias complications. The theoretical self-evaluation achieved
favorable results in all groups. The responses related to practical performance
showed an increase in self-evaluations qualified as regular, mainly in that of
exodontias complications and the odontogeny septic processes. The cases referred
to secondary health care by exodontias complications, the odontogeny septic
processes and buccomaxillofacial traumata showed the higher difficulties in
management and initial treatment at level of Stomatology primary care. Due to its
formative features, we determined that in training and in granting a diploma were
present the modalities of professional overcoming more suitable to be used in
keeping with the difficulties founded.
