Methods: A study was conducted through a descriptive analysis of the temporal evolution of the indicators, built through secondary data issued by the Ambulatory Information System (SIA-SUS), between the years 2002 through 2013. Results: There was a decline in the indicator for first dental appointment coverage (24.48% to 4.17%), the proportion of extraction (6.62% to 1.23%) but also the individual average basic dental procedures (1.07 to 0.09), however, there was an evolution of the Oral Health Team coverage indicator (ESB). It was possible to observe a strong negative correlation between initial consultation and ESB coverage rate; proportion of extraction and, individual average basic dental procedures. Conclusion: It was evident that all dental clinical procedures indicators analyzed showed a decline during the studied period of time, despite having an increase of Oral Health Teams coverage. These results can be attributed to pent-up supply of dental procedures rendered to population , the misreporting of procedures or even policy -related issues / management / management of health services in the municipalityopenAccessSistema de Informação em Saúde.serviços de saúde bucal.Indicadores Básicos de Saúde.odontologia em saúde pública.A utilização de indicadores de saúde bucal para análise do desempenho da atenção básica no município de Natal-rnbachelorThesis
