| Resumo: | The aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge, attitude and practice of dental surgeons in the Seridó region of Rio Grande do Norte, on phytotherapy in clinical practice. The research was carried out by an exploratory and descriptive study using a questionnaire structured data collection tool, with open and closed questions, made available on the Google Forms platform and sent through the professional email address of the dentists enrolled in the CRO-RN that work in the region. The data were analyzed from the bivariate analysis and the chi-square test. Only 17.7% of the dentists interviewed use or indicate herbal or phytotherapeutic plants; the most indicated species is chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla), to relieve the symptoms of dental eruption in infants, treatment of inflammation and aid in the healing process and the herbal remedy is Valeriane (Valeriana officinalis L). 91.1% of the interviewees never attended any course on the subject in question, 68.8% are not aware of Resolution Nº 082/2008 CFO. It is concluded that the dentists in question make little indication or prescription of herbal and phytotherapeutic plants and it is possible that this is due to the lack of knowledge about the subject |
