Dataset for building the dashboard for monitoring oral health services in Primary Health Care in Brazil

It is an unprecedented digital technology that provides indicators of oral health, calculated using data from the Sistema de Informação em Saúde para a Atenção Básica (SISAB) from 2016 onwards, at the municipal, state, regional, and national disaggregation levels. The monitoring dashboard was set up in the following stages: the creation of spreadsheets for mapping the data source; configuration files for the extracted SISAB data to calculate the indicators; scripts to orchestrate automated extraction; storage of calculated indicators in an analytical database hosted on Google Cloud; and double validation (manual and automated). Within the panel, accessible via URL, the 53 previously validated indicators from the dimensions of "Provision and Management of Oral Health Services" were made available for the free access in graphs, maps, and tables that allow for geographic, temporal, population size, and Human Development Index comparisons. The dashboard proves to be a valuable tool for the qualification and use of SISAB data. Automating information and its periodic dissemination will promote the culture of monitoring, making it a daily practice for oral health professionals, reducing the fragmentation of health information, and expanding the evaluative capacity of managers and healthcare professionals in Primary Health Care.
