The objective of this article was to put forward the articulation of the family health with the dental practice in order to provide a more integrated health care model that encourages good oral health of patients and at the same time detects potential risk factors in lifestyles at the dentist's. The above-mentioned will allow the patients to finish his/her dental treatment with higher self-esteem, risk factors under control or eliminated, and increased health protection. In this way, it is possible to change a reductionist care into a systemic holistic care and to contribute to the formation of an integral dentist with humanistic qualities.
