OBJECTIVE: To know the profile of children identified as Sentinel Event in oral health by the Municipal Health Department of Belo Horizonte. METHODS: A quantitative, analytical, exploratory and documentary analysis study was developed in Belo Horizonte / MG, Brazil, involving 545 children, with a range of ages from zero to six years old. Information systems of the city council were consulted. The Single Health System Form, a service provided by the Ministry of Health, was used. The variables studied were: Health Vulnerability Index, race/color, age, sex, being a beneficiary of the Bolsa Familia Program (Social Program sponsored by government), to be monitored by the Strategy of the Family Health Program, reside in the BH Citizenship Program area, nature of the school and region of residence. Statistical analysis were performed in the SPSS software, 20th version. RESULTS: Most children live in areas of medium and high social risk, they are brown, have five to six years old, are male, do not benefit from the Bolsa Familia program, are not accompanied by the Strategy of the Family Health Program, do not reside in the territory of the BH Citizenship Program, and study in institutions of the municipal education network. The sentinel event is present in the nine regions of Belo Horizonte, with a higher prevalence in the regions of Venda Nova, Northeast, West, East and Barreiro. CONCLUSION: The study demonstrates how the adoption of comprehensive social policies can influence the oral health situation.
