This is a theoretical study that aims to articulate contributions on ageism with the dialogic tetragrammaton of interactions, proposed by Morin, in the context of work in the Family Health Strategy and Primary Health Care. To accomplish this, a symbolic projection of knowledge about ageism was carried out, organized in four acts: order, dispersion, interaction, and reconnection. We concluded that this theoretical exercise can be transmuted to the daily work in health care, and that understanding the existence of the dialogic tetragrammaton, which acts in life simultaneously in antagonistic, concurrent and complementary ways, can stimulate critical, creative and complex thinking in favor of knowledge and practices that take the complexity of ageism into account.
