Dakar, (APS) \u2013 La Mutuelle de sant\u00e9 des agents de l\u2019\u00c9tat (MSAE) annonce avoir lanc\u00e9 des initiatives de sensibilisation et de pr\u00e9vention des maladies bucco-dentaires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ces initiatives proc\u00e8dent d\u2019\u2018\u2019une approche participative impliquant les autorit\u00e9s administratives et sanitaires, les leaders communautaires et religieux, les associations\u2019\u2019, explique la MSAE dans un communiqu\u00e9 parvenu dimanche \u00e0 l\u2019APS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les activit\u00e9s de sensibilisation et de pr\u00e9vention ont \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9es \u00e0 l\u2019occasion de la Journ\u00e9e mondiale de la sant\u00e9 bucco-dentaire, c\u00e9l\u00e9br\u00e9e le 20 mars chaque ann\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La campagne de sensibilisation de la MSAE sera d\u00e9roul\u00e9e dans des zones b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiant de peu de services de sant\u00e9 bucco-dentaire, selon le communiqu\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018\u2019Au S\u00e9n\u00e9gal, les d\u00e9fis demeurent importants, notamment en raison d\u2019un d\u00e9ficit de ressources humaines, avec un ratio estim\u00e9 \u00e0 un chirurgien-dentiste pour 32 500 habitants, ce qui traduit les limites de l\u2019offre de soins\u2019\u2019 dans le pays, affirme la Mutuelle de sant\u00e9 des agents de l\u2019\u00c9tat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La pr\u00e9vention et le traitement des affections bucco-dentaires sont co\u00fbteux et ne font g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement pas partie des prestations offertes par la couverture sanitaire universelle, rel\u00e8ve la MSAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le communiqu\u00e9 signale que la plupart des pays \u00e0 revenu faible ou interm\u00e9diaire ne disposent pas de services suffisants pour pr\u00e9venir et traiter efficacement ces maladies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018\u2019De nombreux gaps sont ainsi identifi\u00e9s, notamment l\u2019insuffisance des ressources humaines\u2019\u2019, fait remarquer la Mutuelle de sant\u00e9 des agents de l\u2019\u00c9tat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La MSAE annonce pr\u00e9parer une mission d\u00e9di\u00e9e \u00e0 la sant\u00e9 bucco-dentaire, avec l\u2019aide de partenaires espagnols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selon le communiqu\u00e9, la mission va consister \u00e0 offrir des consultations gratuites et \u00e0 d\u00e9rouler des actions de sensibilisation et de pr\u00e9vention, surtout dans les zones o\u00f9 la couverture sanitaire bucco-dentaire est jug\u00e9e faible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
