Abstract
Objectives: To map scientific production of dental care in prisons, identifying trends, gaps, and organizational aspects of access.
Material and method: Scoping review in accordance with Johanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and PRISMA-ScR guidelines in MEDLINE, Web of Science (WoS), Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS), and Embase. Primary studies in three languages were included, without time restrictions.
Results: From 28 studies (mostly from Brazil, France, and India), high rates of caries, periodontal disease, and tooth loss prevail under a reactive emergency model.
Discussion: Prison care reflects structural inequities. Initiatives such as tele-dentistry and screening protocols are effective for improving a comprehensive approach. A transition toward a public health logic is necessary to guarantee the right to care within the prison system.
