This study shows how the ivoirians take interest in buccodental care and health care. It notifies that: Firstly, patients only make an appointment with the dentist particularly when advanced lesions occur (92.76% of cases) as unbearable painful affections (acule pulpal inflammatory, phoenix abscess); bulky cellulitis. Secondly, they are inclined not to show up for their appointment, when painful symptoms disappear. Consequently the author recommend some therapeutic acts.
