Resumen
AGUDELO SUAREZ, Andrés Alonso y MARTINEZ HERRERA, Eliana. Collective oral health and the colombian context: a critical analysis. Rev. Gerenc. Polit. Salud [online]. 2009, vol.8, n.16, pp.91-105. ISSN 1657-7027.
The practice of dentistry has conducted reflexive process according the other academic disciplines. This paper proposes the implementation of a new political field in the oral health agenda in Colombia by means of exploring some social and health indicators. Furthermore, principles in collective oral health were raised: the oral health as a fundamental right, the community capacity for assuming the health control and their determinants, and the participation of social, economic, and academic actors and the health care services. A protagonist role in the society is required and a major collective consciousness concerning the professionals, the decision-makers and the health sector in general.
