Abstract

The article discusses the impact of the dentist (CD) in reducing the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in intensive care units (ICU). VAP is a recurring infection in ICUs and has high morbidity. The dentist acts by reducing the pathogens present in the oral cavity that can reach the lungs. The literature review found 21 articles addressing the topic, and it was concluded that the dentist's role in the hospital environment contributes to the reduction of VAP incidence.
