Many people have the dream of conquering the long-awaited dental implant for free. 

Well, oral health is definitely an issue that is totally linked to quality of life and health. 

However, not all people have access to paid treatment, as it is considered quite expensive and not very accessible. 

According to a survey carried out by the Ministry of Health, about 41,5% of Brazilians over 60 have already lost a tooth.

and approximately 55,6% of Brazilians do not have access to a dentist frequently. 

Which is totally contradictory if we look at the number of oral health professionals we have in the country. 

are about 300 thousand trained and active professionals, according to the Federal Council of Dentistry, in 2018. 

Therefore, the Ministry of Health realized the need to make dental implant treatment available for free, among other treatments, for the Brazilian population. 

And that's how the Smiling Brazil Project, an initiative that was created from the National Oral Health Policy, which was named Smiling Brazil.

How to get dental implant for free

That's because the dentist on duty will analyze the situation of your teeth in order to understand which services will be needed. 

Thus, it is necessary to attend the health post with some documents, such as:

- Proof of address;

– RG or CNH;

– SUS card.

But first of all, you need to access the Smiling Brazil website to check if the project is now available in your region.

However, people who are more socially vulnerable will have more priority in care. 

Taking into account that the initiative aims precisely to help people who do not have the resources to pay for consultations and dental treatments. 

After all, people who don't have oral health may face a number of problems, such as: 

– Difficulty socializing;

– Decreased self-esteem;

– Difficulty sleeping;

– Pain and complications to perform mastication at the time of feeding;

– Problems when getting a job, among other problems. 

Therefore, taking care of teeth should be taken seriously so that everyone can relate and have more health and quality of life.
