RESUMO
A responsabilidade civil na atuação odontológica envolve a reparação de um dano e pode gerar, ao final do processo, a obrigação de indenizar o indivíduo lesado. O objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar o levantamento e a análise dos processos de responsabilidade civil envolvendo cirurgiões-dentistas e clínicas odontológicas na Região Metropolitana da Grande Vitória (RMGV), Espírito Santo, Brasil. Foram analisados processos instaurados entre 2009 e 2017, sendo verificados os valores de indenização, as especialidades odontológicas envolvidas, presença de laudo pericial e o acionamento de seguro de responsabilidade. Foi encontrado um total de 102 processos. As especialidades mais envolvidas foram Prótese Dentária, Ortodontia e Implantodontia. 84 processos foram instaurados nos Juizados Especiais Cíveis (JEC), enquanto 18 foram via justiça comum (JC). Nos processos do JEC, os valores de indenização solicitados variaram entre R$ 100,00 e R$ 35.000,00, sendo que 21 processos se apresentavam em andamento, 26 foram resolvidos por meio de acordo, 19 foram extintos sem resolução de mérito, em 11 houve sentença favorável ao paciente e sete foram extintos pelo autor. Nos processos da JC os valores de indenização solicitados variaram entre R$ 2.800,00 e R$ 120.237,00, sendo que 14 processos apresentavam-se em andamento, dois foram encerrados por acordo e em dois houve sentença favorável ao cirurgião-dentista. Houve presença de laudo pericial em quatro casos e nenhuma contratação de seguro de responsabilidade civil. Concluiu-se que no período estudado houve uma tendência ao crescimento na ocorrência dos processos na RMGV
