Abstract
The present work aimed to carry out a literature review based on a database of Bireme, Lilacs and Official Documents of the Ministry of Health, since the emergence and evolution of the National Worker Health Policy and its interface with the industrial revolution, as well as its arrival in Brazil, intertwined with national policies. The access of Brazilians to oral health was extremely difficult and limited, but with the Smiling Brazil Policy and proof of systemic diseases caused by microorganisms in the oral cavity, the dental medical union favours the individual as a whole, to understand the complex multidimensional nature of health, its cultural, environmental and psychosocial influences, aiming to provide well-being to workers through better quality of life. There is a need for further studies to understand the gap between National Policies and their implementations.
