A cross-sectional descriptive study. Revised Health Situation Analysis (HSA) of the Microgrid 03, the modified tab WHO oral health assessment is applied and oral exams to 100 families and 75 children of School N.° 5130. The leading causes of death were hypertension, diabetes mellitus and pneumonia. The leading causes of morbidity were acute respiratory infections, intestinal infectious diseases and diseases of the oral cavity. Tooth decay affects 80 % group of 6 to 15 years, followed by 57.34 % of malocclusion and periodontal disease with 20 %. Regarding oral hygiene most children have regular status (56 %), followed by poor hygiene (25.3 %) and only 18.7 % with good oral hygiene.
