Abstract
This study aimed to test the dose-response effect of chlorhexidine on multispecies biofilms formed on commercially pure titanium (cpTi) and titanium-zirconium (TiZr) alloy. Biofilms were formed on cpTi and TiZr discs and treated two times per day with five different chlorhexidine concentrations (0.12, 0.20, 0.50, 1, 2%). The biofilms were collected for microbiological, biochemical and microscopic analyses. The significance of differences among groups was evaluated by linear regression, ANOVA, Bonferroni and Tukey tests. The mean number of colony-forming units decreased as the chlorhexidine concentration increased for both cpTi and TiZr (p < 0.05). The maximum effect was observed with the 0.5% concentration. Confocal microscopy images suggested an increase in the number of dead bacterial cells with increased chlorhexidine concentration. The biofilm pH increased after chlorhexidine exposure (p < 0.05). Chlorhexidine showed an antimicrobial dose-response effect in controlling biofilm on cpTi and TiZr. 0.5% chlorhexidine can be used to achieve the maximum antimicrobial effect on both materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of dental care services contributes to the improvement of children's healthy behaviors, reducing the prevalence of future dental problems. In this way, the purpose of this study was to describe the use of dental care service during early childhood and the possible socioeconomic inequalities in this use. DESIGN Data from the Brazilian Oral Health Survey (SB Brasil, 2010) were used. Interviews with the children's parents and clinical examinations with the children were conducted in a 5-year-old representative sample. Descriptive, bivariate and multiple hierarchical statistical analyses were applied. RESULTS Of the 7241 children included, 3812 (53.2%) had used dental care services at least once in their lifetimes, and 1872 (48.8%) had used services for check-up/prevention. The use of dental services was greater among children with a higher family income (P < 0.05). The use of check-ups was lower among children with non-White skin color (Black and Browns) and among those who did not live in state capitals (P < 0.05). Clinical conditions and self-perception were also associated with the use (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Socioeconomic differences in the general use of dental care and in its use for check-ups were identified during early childhood, indicating the presence of inequalities.

Abstract
Resumo Estudo transversal e analítico para caracterizar a maloclusão em crianças brasileiras de 12 anos e identificar os aspectos sociodemográficos associados, utilizando dados do SB Brasil 2010. Foram incluídas 5539 crianças dentre as quais 41% possuíam algum grau de maloclusão, de acordo com o índice Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI). Conduziu-se análises descritivas, bivariadas e múltiplas por regressão logística multinomial. A maloclusão definida foi maior entre os que avaliaram sua saúde bucal como nem satisfeito/nem insatisfeito (OR 1,24; IC 95%; 1,03-1,50) e insatisfeito (OR 1,76; IC 95%; 1,50-2,08). A maloclusão grave foi maior entre crianças do Sudeste (OR 1,44; IC 95%; 1,06-1,96) e Sul (OR 1,52; IC 95%; 1,05-2,19), sexo masculino (OR 1,24; IC 95%; 1,03-1,48), raça negro/pardo (OR 1,39; IC 95%; 1,14-1,69) e que avaliaram sua saúde bucal como nem satisfeito/nem insatisfeito (OR 1,79; IC 95%; 1,41-2,26) e insatisfeito (OR 2,20; IC 95%; 1,77-2,72). O nível muito grave foi maior entre os residentes de capitais (OR 1,36; IC 95%; 1,07-1,71) e que avaliaram sua saúde bucal como nem satisfeito/nem insatisfeito (OR 1,58; IC 95%; 1,22-2,05) e insatisfeito (OR 2,44; IC 95%; 1,96-3,03). A prevalência da maloclusão é alta entre crianças brasileiras, sendo suas diferentes gravidades associadas a aspectos sociodemográficos.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of silorane-based composite restorations applied after different surface treatments. MATERIALS AND METHODS This controlled and randomized clinical trial included 26 patients with class I restoration indications. The teeth were randomly assigned to the following treatments: control 1/G1, silorane specific self-etching adhesive (P90 self-etch primer and bond) + silorane-based composite resin (Filtek™ P90 low shrink posterior restorative); G2, 37% phosphoric acid + silorane specific self-etching adhesive + silorane-based composite resin; G3, blasting with aluminum oxide + silorane specific self-etching adhesive + silorane-based composite resin; and control 2/G4, self-etching adhesive (Adper™ SE Plus self-etch adhesive) + dimethacrylate-based composite resin (Filtek™ P60 posterior restorative). The clinical performance was evaluated at baseline and after 1 year. RESULTS A total of 141 restorations were made and evaluated. For all clinical criteria evaluated, no significant difference was found between the surface treatments at baseline and after 1 year (p > 0.05). After 1 year, only the group with 37% phosphoric acid + silorane specific self-etching adhesive (G2) showed a significant reduction in marginal adaptation (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In general, all surface treatments showed an adequate clinical performance for silorane-based composite resin in class I restorations. However, a reduction in the marginal adaptation after 1 year was found when additional phosphoric acid etching was used prior to silorane specific self-etching adhesive. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of phosphoric acid etching prior to specific self-etching adhesive can adversely affect the marginal adaptation of silorane-based restorations.

Abstract
The use of dental services on a regular basis by residents of Montes Claros (MG) was assessed, as well as related aspects. Cross-sectional study was conducted with a complex probabilistic sample by conglomerates. Logistic regression was used (OR/CI95%) with a significance level of 5. Of the 2582 study participants, 761 required and obtained access to the services for less than a year. Of these, 262 (35.8%) used the services in a regular/routine manner. The use of dental services on a regular basis was greatest among individuals in the age group "≥ 18 ≤ 37"; with schooling "equal to or greater than 9 years"; who classified their oral health, general health and appearance of teeth and gums as "excellent/good"; who reported no pain" on teeth and gums over the last six months; They reported that the "assistance provider had adequate skills"; that they "always/often" received information about oral hygiene and diet/nutrition. In addition, this use was lower among those who rated the time to ask questions about the dental problem or treatment as "regular/bad/terrible." The conclusion drawn is that the use of dental services on a regular basis was relatively low, being associated with personal traits, subjective health conditions and characteristics related to the services.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Untreated dental caries can compromise oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). However, it is not clear which specific daily activities related to OHRQoL are compromised by the presence of this problem. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify which specific daily activities are affected by the presence of untreated dental caries using a representative sample of Brazilian children. METHODS A cross-sectional study using a representative sample of Brazilian children (12 years of age) was conducted. The presence of untreated dental caries was assessed using the "decayed - D" component of the DMFT (decayed, missing, and filled teeth) index. Clinical exams were conducted by trained and calibrated dentists. The daily activities were evaluated using the survey Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP), considering items and domains. Descriptive, bivariate, and multiple analyses were conducted (α = 0.05). RESULTS A total of 7,247 children were included, and 39.9 percent had at least one tooth with untreated dental caries, with 33.5 percent experiencing an impact on at least one of the OIDP activities. This study identified a greater chance of the presence of untreated dental caries in children having an impact on the psychological domain (P = 0.006), as well as on the "difficulty eating" (P = 0.007), and "difficulty sleeping" (P = 0.023) items. CONCLUSION The presence of untreated dental caries among Brazilian children was associated with an impact on specific daily activities (difficulty eating and sleeping) and the psychological domain of OHRQoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral health-related quality of life may be influenced by a series of characteristics. Considering the multidimensional character of quality of life, these impacts should be evaluated in the context of the physical, psychological, and social domains. AIM To evaluate the impact of clinical and perceived oral health problems on oral health-related quality of life in its different domains. DESIGN Clinical exams were conducted on a representative cross-sectional sample of 12-year-old children in Brazil. The instrument Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP) was used to evaluate the quality of life in relation to oral health. Descriptive, bivariate, and multiple hierarchical analyses were conducted. RESULTS Of the 7328 children studied, 2577 (33.5%) presented oral health-related impacts on quality of life. Clinical and perceived conditions of oral health were associated with the presence of overall impacts in the physical, psychological, and social dimensions of oral health-related quality of life. Furthermore, Family income was associated with overall impacts and the level of motivation to use dental health services was associated with the physical dimension. CONCLUSIONS The clinical and perceived conditions of oral health in Brazilian 12-year-olds were associated with a negative impact on oral health-related quality of life.

Abstract
The scope of this study was to evaluate the association between the presence of common mental disorders and the impairment of subjective health conditions among the elderly. It involved a cross-sectional analytical survey conducted among all the elderly residents in the urban area of a Brazilian municipality with low population density. Mental disorders were evaluated using the short version of the Goldberg General Health questionnaire. Subjective and normative health conditions were evaluated and logistic regression was applied (OR/CI95%) with a 5% significance level. The survey included 419 elderly residents and the prevalence of mental disorders was 44.6%. The presence of mental disorders was greater among seniors who reported dissatisfaction with life, impairment in the mental and physical control of quality of life and with self-perception of the appearance of teeth and gums as negative. The prevalence of disorders was less identified between men and among those for whom oral health did not affect their relationships with other people The common mental disorder was identified in a significant number of the elderly investigated and the presence of this disorder has been mainly associated with oral health conditions.

Abstract
Resumo Propõe-se caracterizar os idosos usuários de serviços odontológicos ofertados pelo Sistema Único de Saúde, considerando o princípio da equidade. Trata-se de um estudo transversal analítico com modelagem hierarquizada, conduzido a partir de uma amostra probabilística, complexa, por conglomerados de idosos (65-74 anos) residentes em um município brasileiro de grande porte populacional. Foram incluídas variáveis independentes referentes a: características sociodemográficas, acesso a informações em saúde, comportamentos/sistema de atenção à saúde e desfechos em saúde. Realizou-se análises descritivas, bivariadas e múltiplas hierarquizadas. Dos 480 idosos incluídos, 138 (31,2%) utilizaram serviços odontológicos provenientes do SUS. O uso desses serviços foi maior à medida que diminuíam a renda per capita e a escolaridade dos idosos, menor entre os que não haviam realizado o autoexame da boca e maior entre os que usavam os serviços odontológicos para procedimentos que não fossem rotina. Além disso, verificou-se que utilizaram mais o SUS pessoas que tiveram o relacionamento afetado pela saúde bucal e uma autopercepção negativa da sua aparência. Conclui-se que o uso dos serviços odontológicos no SUS foi predominante entre os idosos que vivem sob condições de vulnerabilidade.

Trata-se de estudo transversal com base no inquérito nacional das condições de Saúde Bucal da população brasileira, denominado SB Brasil – 2010. A variável dependente foi a autopercepção da necessidade de prótese dentária total, considerando a aquisição de prótese nova ou substituição da existente. Foram conduzidas análises descritivas, bivariadas e múltiplas. Foram incluídos 3514 idosos, destes, 2039 (55,0%) perceberam a necessidade de prótese total. A autopercepção da necessidade de prótese total foi maior entre os que necessitavam de prótese dentária inferior e que estavam insatisfeitos com as suas condições de saúde bucal. Além da alta prevalência da autopercepção da necessidade de prótese identificada, os resultados permitiram identificar que condições normativas e subjetivas de saúde bucal se mantiveram associadas a esta autopercepção entre idosos brasileiros.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the prevalence of dental pain in Brazilian preschoolers, as well as its associated factors, considering a representative sample of that population group in Brazil. METHODS Cross-sectional study that used the analytical data of the national oral health survey (SB Brazil) carried out in 2010. A representative sample of Brazilian preschoolers aged 5 years was considered. Interviews were carried out (answered by parents/tutors), as well as clinical examinations in children. Descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analyzes were performed, described in odds ratios and 95% confidence interval (OR/95%CI). RESULTS 7,280 preschoolers were included. Of these, 1520 (21.1%) had had dental pain in the last 6 months. The chance of the occurrence of dental pain was higher among those who used dental services (1.51 / 1.02 to 2.23), with tooth decay (3.08 / 2.08 to 4.56), that realized the need for dental treatment (3.96 / 2.48 to 6.34), whose parents reported dissatisfaction by children with their teeth and mouth (1.47 / 1.04 to 2.10) and those who reported impact of oral problems on quality of life (5.76 / 3.90 to 8.49). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of dental pain among Brazilian preschool children was relatively high, being associated with the use of dental services and the normative and subjective oral health status.

RESUMO: Estimou-se as prevalências da necessidade, do acesso e da insatisfação com a assistência oftalmológica entre os que a obtiveram no último ano; identificaram-se os fatores associados a essa insatisfação. Considerou-se uma amostra probabilística complexa. Conduziu-se análises descritivas, bivariadas e múltiplas com correção pelo efeito de desenho. Dos 2.582 participantes, 76% necessitavam de assistência, dentre os que necessitavam, 82,5% tiveram acesso. Dentre os que obtiveram assistência no último ano, 13,1% estavam insatisfeitos. A insatisfação foi maior entre mais velhos, os que foram andando ou de bicicleta para o local da consulta e os que relataram que foi regular/ruim/péssima: a experiência de ter sido recebido e tratado com respeito, a clareza com que o prestador explicou as coisas e a liberdade que teve para escolher o seu prestador de assistência oftalmológica. A maioria necessitava e teve acesso à assistência. A insatisfação foi baixa. A idade do paciente, o meio de transporte utilizado para chegar ao local da consulta, o relacionamento paciente/profissional e a liberdade de escolha intervêm na insatisfação.

Abstract
Our objective was to evaluate whether there is an association with the different levels of dental fluorosis and the presence of dental trauma amongst school children. A transversal study was conducted amongst school children from the age of 12. Dental examinations were conducted by 24 well trained and fully qualified dental surgeons. Data was collected from 36 randomly selected public schools amongst 89 schools in a municipality. The criteria used to diagnose dental fluorosis was based on the Dean's fluorosis Index and for diagnosing dental trauma we looked for clinical signs of crown fractures and dental avulsions. Multiple descriptive analysis, which was bivariate, was carried out. Amongst the 2,755 school children that took part in the study 1,089 (39.6%) were diagnosed with dental fluorosis and 106 (3.8%) had one tooth or more with dental trauma. We noted a high prevalence of dental fluorosis, independent of the level of severity, amongst individuals with one tooth or more who had dental trauma. This association was even more evident where there were severely high levels of fluorosis. We also noted that the presence of fluorosis was greater amongst those that actively paid more attention to discoloration on their teeth and who received treatment from a dental professional at their schools. Nevertheless dental fluorosis was associated with the presence of dental trauma, independent of its severity.

Abstract
Objectives : To identify the level of access to information regarding how to prevent oral health problems among the elderly, and verify if such levels were higher among members of households registered with the Family Health Strategy Program. Methods : An analytic cross-sectional study was conducted of a probabilistic complex sample of elderly (65-74 years old) members of the population of a large city. The level of access was estimated with adjustment for the design effect, as well as the magnitudes of association. Descriptive, bivariate and logistic regression (OR/CI95%) analysis was performed. Variables related to personal determinants, health services, health-related behavior and health outcomes were considered. Results : Of the 490 participants, 53.4% reported they had access to information about how to prevent oral health problems. This access was higher among elderly persons living in a household registered with the Family Health Strategy Program (2.04/1.14-3.67), and who had at least five years of schooling (2.53/1.67-3.83), regularly used dental services (1.84/1.07-3.17), did not smoke either now or in the past (1.79/1.13-2.82), did not suffer from chronic diseases (2.14/1.34-3.42) and had not suffered social impacts because of their oral health conditions (1.77/1.08-2.91). Conclusion : Most of the elderly persons had access to information about how to prevent oral health problems, with such access being greater among those registered with the Family Health Strategy Program.

Abstract
AIM To estimate the prevalence of the consumption of beer and distilled beverages and associated factors among Brazilian older adults residing in a highly populated city in Brazil, highlighting the factors associated with frequent consumption and differences in consumption between men and women. METHODS It was a cross-sectional, analytic study carried out by means of probability samples of conglomerates of older adults (aged 65-74 years). Descriptive analysis, univariate analysis and estimates of multivariate models through logistic regression (OR, 95% CI) were realized. RESULTS 500 of the 736 evaluated seniors were included in the present analysis. 128 (27.3%), 103 (21.3%) and 167 (34.9%) of the seniors indicate past or current use of beer, distilled beverages and frequent use of alcohol, respectively. The consumption of beer was associated with use of tobacco between women; and with marital status and schooling between men. The consumption of distilled beverages was associated with schooling and use of tobacco between women; and age and use of tobacco in men. Daily or weekly use was associated with schooling and use of tobacco between women; age and the use of tobacco between men. CONCLUSION In the elderly population studied, a noteworthy prevalence of the consumption of beer and distilled beverages was identified, and this use was associated with personal and behavioral determinants. Similar associations related to frequent (daily or weekly) consumption were also identified. Significant differences in the profile of consumption were identified between men and women, with more abusive use among men. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2016; 16: 810-820.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether demographic, socioeconomic conditions, oral health subjectivity and characterization of dental care are associated with users' dissatisfaction with such are. METHODS Cross-sectional study of 781 people who required dental care in Montes Claros, MG, Southeastern Brazil, in 2012, a city with of medium-sized population situated in the North of Minas Gerais. Household interviews were conducted to assess the users' dissatisfaction with dental care (dependent variable), demographic, socioeconomic conditions, oral health subjectivity and characterization of dental care (independent variables). Sample calculation was used for the finite population, with estimates made for proportions of dissatisfaction in 50.0% of the population, a 5.0% error margin, a non-response rate of 5.0% and a 2.0% design effect. Logistic regression was used, and the odds ratio was calculated with a 5% significance level and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS Of the interviewed individuals, 9.0% (7.9%, with correction for design effect) were dissatisfied with the care provided. These were associated with lower educational level; negative self-assessment of oral health; perception that the care provider was unable to give dental care; negative evaluation of the way the patient was treated, the cleanliness of the rooms, based on the examination rooms and the toilets, and the size of the waiting and examination rooms. CONCLUSIONS The rate of dissatisfaction with dental care was low. This dissatisfaction was associated with socioeconomic conditions, subjectivity of oral health, skill of the health professionals relating to the professional-patient relationship and facility infrastructure. Educational interventions are suggested that aim at improving the quality of care among professionals by responsible agencies as is improving the infrastructure of the care units.

Abstract
Educative actions are an important component of health promotion in Brazil's primary healthcare program, the Family Health Strategy (FHS). The efficacy of these actions is evidenced by compliance with healthy behaviors and in the reduction of rates of mortality and morbidity. The objective of this study was to identify whether access to information regarding the prevention of oral cancer is greater among elders whose residences are registered with the FHS. SPSS® was utilized to obtain estimates that were corrected for sample design, considering the magnitude of the associations between access to such information with personal determinants, the use and cost of healthcare, health-related behaviors and health outcomes. 58.9% of the 492 participating elders reported having access to such information. We verified that there was a greater chance for access among residents of houses registered by the FHS; those with greater per capita income (2.01/1.183.43); non-smokers (2.00/1.16-3.46); those that realized oral self-examination (6.35/3.46-11.64); and those that did not perceive discomfort in the mouth, head or neck (2.06/1.02-4.17). Access was greater among residents of homes registered by the FHS. Personal determinants of health, health-related behaviors and health outcomes are influenced or influence access to information regarding the prevention and management of oral diseases.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of oral cancer self-examinationamong the elderly and confirm whether prevalence was higher among users of the dental services provided by Brazil's Unified Health System (SUS, acronym in Portuguese). A transversal study of elderly people aged between 65 and 74 years living in a large-sized Brazilian municipality was conducted using simple random sampling. Logistic regression was conducted and results were corrected for sample design and unequal weighting using the SPSS(r) software. The study assessed 740 individuals. A total of 492 met the inclusion criteria, of which 101 (22.4%) reported having performed an oral cancer self-examination. Prevalence was higher among users of the dental services provided by the SUS, higher-income individuals, people with higher levels of education, individuals that used a removable dental prosthesis, and people who had not experienced discomfort attributed to oral condition, and lower among people who sought regular and periodic dental treatment and individuals who did not have a drinking habit. This type of self-care should be encouraged by public health policies which respond to the needs of the elderly, with emphasis on users of private and philanthropic services, and other services outside the public health network.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the prevalence and the severity of malocclusions and to analyze factors associated with the need for orthodontic treatment of Brazilian adolescents. METHODS This exploratory, cross-sectional study was carried out based on secondary data from the national epidemiological survey on oral health in Brazil (2002-2003). Socio-demographic conditions, self-perception, and the existence and degree of malocclusion, using the Dental Aesthetic Index, were evaluated in 16,833 adolescent Brazilians selected by probabilistic sample by conglomerates. The dependent variable - need orthodontic treatment - was estimated from the severity of malocclusion. The magnitude and direction of the association in bivariate and multivariate analyzes from a Robust Poisson regression was estimated. RESULTS The majority of the adolescents needed orthodontic treatment (53.2%). In the multivariate analysis, the prevalence of the need for orthodontic treatment was larger among females, non-whites, those that perceived a need for treatment, and those that perceived their appearance as normal, bad, or very bad. The need for orthodontic treatment was smaller among those that lived in the Northeast and Central West macro-regions compared to those living in Southeast Brazil and it was also smaller among those that perceived their chewing to be normal or their oral health to be bad or very bad. CONCLUSIONS There was a high prevalence of orthodontic treatment need among adolescents in Brazil and this need was associated with demographic and subjective issues. The high prevalence of orthodontic needs in adolescents is a challenge to the goals of Brazil's universal public health system.

Abstract
Objetivo Propõe-se identificar a prevalência dos hábitos tabagistas e etilistas entre pacientes diagnosticados com lesões bucais, assim como possíveis fatores associados. Material e método Estudo analítico, de caráter retrospectivo, entre pacientes assistidos por clínica odontológica universitária na área de Diagnóstico Bucal. Foram analisados os prontuários odontológicos e laudos histopatológicos dos pacientes que realizaram o procedimento de biópsia entre fevereiro de 2010 e julho de 2012. As variáveis dependentes – hábitos nocivos à saúde – foram construídas pelas informações referentes aos hábitos tabagistas e etilistas então atuais ou passados. Utilizou-se o software SPSS 19.0. Foram conduzidas análises descritivas e univariada pelo teste qui-quadrado de Pearson (p≤0,05). A normalidade da amostra foi investigada pelo teste Kolmogorov-Smirnov e Shapiro-Wilk (p<0,05). Resultado Dos 125 pacientes atendidos no período de avaliação, 110 foram incluídos. A presença de hábitos tabagistas e etilistas – então atuais ou passados – foi identificada em 42 (38,2%) e 21 (19,1%) pacientes, respectivamente. Na análise univariada, as variáveis estatisticamente significantes (p≤0,05) associadas ao hábito tabagista foram: sexo, faixa etária, tipo de biópsia e diagnóstico histopatológico. Quanto ao hábito etilista, as variáveis foram: sexo e tipo de biópsia. Conclusão Os hábitos tabagistas e etilistas estiveram ou permaneceram presentes na vida de uma parcela significativa dos indivíduos investigados, que desenvolveram lesões bucais. Nota-se, ainda, quão relevante é o sinergismo de ambos no desenvolvimento de tais lesões.

Abstract
The scope of this study is to identify the prevalence of access to information about how to prevent oral problems among schoolchildren in the public school network, as well as the factors associated with such access. This is a cross-sectional and analytical study conducted among 12-year-old schoolchildren in a Brazilian municipality with a large population. The examinations were performed by 24 trained dentists and calibrated with the aid of 24 recorders. Data collection occurred in 36 public schools selected from the 89 public schools of the city. Descriptive, univariate and multiple analyses were conducted. Of the 2510 schoolchildren included in the study, 2211 reported having received information about how to prevent oral problems. Access to such information was greater among those who used private dental services; and lower among those who used the service for treatment, who evaluated the service as regular or bad/awful. The latter use toothbrush only or toothbrush and tongue scrubbing as a means of oral hygiene and who reported not being satisfied with the appearance of their teeth. The conclusion drawn is that the majority of schoolchildren had access to information about how to prevent oral problems, though access was associated with the characteristics of health services, health behavior and outcomes.

Abstract
ResumoOs professores universitários estão expostos a um aumento de tensão no trabalho pela fragmentação da sua atividade e as responsabilidades exigidas, sem que, em muitas situações, tenham as condições necessárias para responder adequadamente. Tal situação pode representar condições estressoras, aumentando o risco de transtornos mentais. Investigou-se a associação entre transtornos mentais comuns e estressores no trabalho entre professores de nove cursos da área da saúde de uma universidade particular em Minas Gerais. A variável dependente foi a presença de transtornos mentais, avaliada pelo Questionário de Saúde Geral 12. Os estressores no trabalho foram avaliados pelo modelo Esforço-Recompensa e Comprometimento excessivo. As demais variáveis foram: sociodemográficas, história ocupacional, comportamentais e referentes à saúde geral. Os dados foram submetidos à análise descritiva, análise bivariada e regressão de Poisson. Participaram 175 professores (80, 0%), e 19, 5% apresentaram transtornos mentais comuns. A prevalência desses transtornos foi maior entre professores com maior esforço no trabalho (RP= 1, 8; IC95%= 1, 01-3, 46) e menor naqueles com maior qualidade de vida no domínio físico (RP= 0, 95, IC95%= 0, 93-0, 97). Conclui-se que há uma prevalência considerável de transtornos mentais comuns entre professores universitários, sendo maior naqueles que se esforçam mais no trabalho e com pior qualidade de vida no domínio físico.
