La mordida abierta anterior es un problema esquelético y dentario que conlleva a problemas de masticación, fonación y estética del paciente, mayormente se presenta en dentición decidua y mixta, por un mal hábito de succión; este problema muchas veces recién es tomado en cuenta en edades de pubertad y adolescencia. Para lograr la corrección de este problema de la mordida abierta existen muchas técnicas, siendo una de ellas el uso de la filosofía MEAW y sus arcos con loops preparados en alambre 0.017” x 0.025” elgiloy azul que brindaron mayor eficacia y estabilidad pos tratamiento. Objetivo: Describir cómo corregir mordida abierta anterior con filosofía MEAW, para lograr un correcto overbite y overjet. Material y método: El método empleado en la presente investigación es el método científico, de tipo básica, nivel descriptivo con un diseño no experimental de corte t...

Objective: to determine the preferences of the patients in terms of age, sex and clothing of the dentists of two educational entities, public and private. Material and Methods: Basic descriptive cross-sectional study, for which the survey methodology was used by virtual means to a sample of 165 students from 8 to 25 years old divided into 3 groups, from 8 to 11 years, from 12 to 17 years and from 18 to 25 years of both sexes, photographs of 4 dental models were used: 2 women, one between 25 to 30 years old, another from 40 to 50 years old and two men of the same ages with 3 different uniforms, the processing of the data was through tables of frequencies and percentages. Results: The main outcome was the preference for a young female professional, wearing a pediatric dental jacket. Conclusions: It should be noted that the choice of the young professional was very marked in relation to the...

Objectives: To determine in vitro if there is a difference in the marginal microfiltration of composite resin inlays, cemented with dual resin cement and fluidized composite by preheating, evaluated with macrophotographs at the Private University of Huancayo Franklin Roosevelt 2018 - 2019. Material and Methods: In vitro experimental type, quasi-experimental design. Results: It was found that of the inlays cemented with dual resin cement and with fluidized composite resin, they presented the highest percentages: 80% and 70% respectively at the “medium level of microleakage”, in terms of “absence of microleakage”, the fluidized resin had 5% as opposed to 0% of dual cement, and the “high microleakage” level was present only in the 10% dual cement cemented inlays and both equaled 0% in “very high” grade microleakage. Noting a slight superiority in terms of the lower presence ...

Objective: To determine the coverage and factors associated with non-vaccination against hepatitis B in newborns in Peru. Materials and methods: Multiple cross-sectional, the population consisted of children under five years of age. The source of information was a combination of vaccination cards and mother's report.  Results: In the 2023 demographic survey, the vaccination rate was 91.9%. The characteristics associated with non-vaccination in the generalized linear models (p value ˂ 0.05) were: i) home births and births in private clinics, ii) cesarean births, iii) not having received the BCG vaccine, and iv) not belonging to the mountain region. Conclusion: The percentage of children vaccinated in the 2023 demographic survey exceeded 90.0%. The factors that were shown to be associated with non-vaccination were place of delivery (home, private clinic), cesarean delivery, not having re...
