The purpose was to relate the level of knowledge, biocontaminated waste management. and the level of pollution generated in two Dental Clinics: Clinicof the Faculty of Dentistry at the National University of San Marcos (San Marcos) and the Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal (UNFV). The type of study was cross-sectional l. Attended by 299 people including students, teachers and maintenance staff. Was used an observation sheet and microbiological analysis. There was a low and very low level of staff knowledge about biocontaminated Waste Management. There were no gender differences in UNMSM staff (p = 0.55), while in UNFV, males showed less knowledge (p = 0.038). The biocontaminated and pathologic waste management from generation to final disposal is inadequate (UNMSM 92.3 % and 58.5 %, 100.0 % and 51.8 %UNFV respectively). The handling of needles is adequate (77.4 % UNMSM, UNFV 100 %...

To evaluate the impact of the international accreditation process at Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos’s Faculty of Dentistry was the purpose of the investigation. Methodology: The study was descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective. The sample was made up by 307 (of 450) students randomly selected. The data collection was obtained by a questionnaire survey. Chi square test (SPSS 20) was applied. The results showed that the level of student’s satisfaction related to accreditation process was regular to good (37.1% and 51.3%). About the dimensions of coherence of the achievements the purposes: relevance, integrity and effectiveness were considered as good 74.9% (p = 0.004); about the availability, efficiency and effectiveness of resources as regular 50.2% and good 34.2% (p = 0.00); with regard to changes in the process: mode of operation of the organizational structures an...

The aim of this study was to determinate the prevalence and severity of caries, DMF-T y the relationship of family, socioeconomic and behavior in the oral health Factor level in a scholar adolescent; It surveyed, assessed a sample of 212 females between 12 and 17 years old with permanent teeth of the Institution Educative Secondary Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes in October 2008 in Huánuco, Perú. It found a caries prevalence of 85,8 %, a DMF-T of 4,0, the light severity of cavity was major (36,3 %); the age, number of persons per house, family caregiver, tooth brush frequency, intake of cariogenic products, dental care, types of dental care service. It concludes that the cavity prevalence was high; the DMF-T was moderate; severity and prevalence of caries increment with the rise of the age, increment of the number of person per house, the type and amount of caregivers, low tooth brush ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate academic stress and its impact in the academic performance of students of dentistry. Methodology: we worked with a probabilistic sample of 186 dental students who completed the semester 2014-1, stratified by year of study: first (n = 37); second (n = 29); third (n = 44); fourth (n = 36) and fifth (n = 40) and single randomly selected. The measurement of academic stress variable was performed through the SISCO inventory validated questionnaire, which assesses: academic stressors, manifestations of stress and coping strategies and obtained an internal consistency of 0.768. The academic performance variable was measured by the average student at the end of the semester 2014-1. For statistical analysis, bivariate and multivariate statistical tests were used. Results and conclusions: it was found that 100% of the students presented sometime stressful ...

The aim of the investigation was to determine the relationship between self-medication and the socioeconomic- cultural level for handling toothache, in Ancash, Peru: District of Independence, Province of Huaraz. The study was descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional and retrospective. It was interviewed 400 residents of different small villages from the district. The results verified the general hypothesis: It exists an inverse relationship between self-medication for handling toothache and the socioeconomiccultural level of residents, through the tests of correlation: V of cramer (v = 0.547) and Pearson (p = -987); also, the specific hypothesis: It exists a greater correlation between the self-medication and the cultural level (v = 0.527) than to social (v = 0.375) and economic (v = 0.362) levels, was proved. It was found that the prevalent attitude to relief a toot pain is the self-m...

Saliva is an etiological factor of caries. It acts stabilizing pH by its concentration of carbonates and phosphates. When the oral hygiene is deficient, pH becomes acid and optimal for the demineralization of teeth surfaces. If a diet rich in sugars and flour predominates, they become more acid and the risk of caries beginning is imminent. To determinate the behavior of salivary pH and demonstrate the effectiveness of the brushing as a low cost, efficient, easy application prevention measure, in children with cariogenic risk, samples of saliva of 44 children between 6 and 8 were taken, from San Martin de Porres district, before and after breakfast and analyzed with a potentiometer. GROUP 1: with old bacterial plaque (without previous tooth brashing) and GROUP 2: with recent bacterial plaque (with previous tooth brushing). According to “t” test analysis, the variation of pH salivary i...

La lactancia forma parte integrante del proceso reproductivo y es la forma ideal y natural de alimentar al lactante. Constituye una base biológica y psicológica única para el desarrollo del niño. Este hecho, junto a otros importantes efectos en la prevención de las infecciones, en la salud y el bienestar de la madre, en el espaciamiento de los embarazos, en la salud de la familia, en la economía de la familia, el país y en la producción de alimentos, hace de la lactancia natural un elemento clave de autosuficiencia, de la atención primaria de la salud y de los actuales criterios de desarrollo.

Riga-Fede disease is a rare, benign disorder characterized by a reactive ulceration of the oral mucosa, which arises from repetitive traumatic injuries. The constant trauma can cause an ulceration large enough or annoying enough to interfere with proper suction and feeding, which would cause a risk of nutritional deficiencies, dehydration and infections. We have as diagnostic aid, the intraoral radiography, which in infants is taken with the Mannkopf technique. With respect to the treatment of this lesion there is varied information in the literature and it has changed over the years, there are conservative treatments as radicals. We present the clinical case of 7-month-old male infant, who presents with an ulcer on the ventral side of the tongue, with defined edges, approximately 3.5 cm x 2.5 cm in diameter, colored reddish with whitish areas, painful on palpation, with fever and eating...

La enfermedad de Riga-Fede es un trastorno benigno poco común, se caracteriza por una ulceración reactiva de la mucosa oral, que surge de lesiones traumáticas repetitivas. El trauma constante puede provocar una ulceración lo suficientemente grande como para interferir en la adecuada succión y alimentación, lo que provocaría un riesgo de deficiencias nutricionales, deshidratación e infecciones. Tenemos como ayuda diagnostica, la radiografía intraoral, que en lactantes es tomada con la técnica de Mannkopf.

The object of the study was to evaluate the clinical performance of disperse phase amalgam and Z350 resin in Class V restorations. 60 bicuspids and molars were selected with caries without pulp compromise; these were divided in to 2 groups: Group I, 30 restorations class V with disperse phase amalgam, Group II, 30 restorations class V with resin Z350. We evaluated in each restoration: marginal adaptation, secondary caries, and post-operative sensibility. The results showed 100% success related to marginal integrity and carious recurrence. There was not post operative sensibility, after 06 months of evaluation in 60 treated cases.

It was evaluated the weight and height of 101 children, 3 to 5 year-old, from the marginal urban area "Playa Rimac " of Lima city, to determine their nutrition state, and know the influence that can exist with d.m.f. Index. There was 1% of children with malnutrition "moderate", 15% with malnutrition "light", 72% nutritional state "normal", and 12% in state of "obesity", no one with "severe" malnutrition. The mean d.m,f Index was 4,7 even arriving at 6,6, although it showed the tendency to be elevated in cases of malnutrition, there was not a positive statistical correlationy as it happened to Oral Hygiene Index, since 61 % qfthe children presented a high level of plaque.
