SCHERMAN, Patricia  and  GIORDANO, María Silvia. Psicanálise no início da relação psicologia-odontologia na argentina. Rev. Psicol. Saúde [online]. 2020, vol.12, n.4, pp. 175-190. ISSN 2177-093X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.20435/pssa.vi.1063.

In the framework of the historical study about the different articulations of psychology with health sciences, the first links of psychology with dental discipline in Argentina, specifically with child dentistry, are investigated. The productions elaborated between the years 1950 and 1970 are reviewed, and it is noted their incidence in the professional training of the dentist. A historiographic study was conducted, supported by primary, oral, and documentary sources. The results obtained show that one of the first effects of this link was the contribution to the reformulation of the pediatric dentists' understanding matrices on child care. The significant role of psychoanalysis in this reformulation is pointed out, and it is described how, in the experience developed by Arminda Aberastury and María Inés Egozcue, psychoanalysis and pediatric dentistry established a mutually beneficial relationship during this period.

Keywords : Psychology; psychoanalysis; pediatric; dentistry; history; Argentina.
