Sumario: | Introduction: According to the World Health Organization (WHO), tooth decay has a prevalence of 60-90 % worldwide. It is a disease of multifactorial origin and deteriorates the quality of life of human beings. In addition to its four etiologic factors, risk factors that boost the risk of the individual to the disease. Objectives: To determine the association of the presence of dental caries risk factors in children 6 years to 11 years 11 months seen at the Teaching Hospital of the Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas. Materials and Methods: The study design is observational, descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective. The sample was random and consisted of 382 children between 6 years to 11 years 11 months seen in the period March 2011 to February 2013 at the Teaching Hospital of the UPC. For measurement of dental caries and the Oral Hygiene Index (IHO), odontogram and simplified soft debris index was used respectively. Other variables (gender, age, use of extrinsic sugars, complaint, presence and frequency of toothbrushing) were obtained through medical records found in the data base SMILE. Statistical analysis was used the chi -square test. Results: The prevalence of caries of 82.14 % and a statistically significant association in the relationship of this disease with oral hygiene index was found. Also, no associations between the presence of cavities with variables gender, age, extrinsic sugars intake, complaint, presence and frequency of toothbrushing were found. Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of dental caries as various studies and will refer only statistically significant association was found with a variable (IHO). Is recommended for these various studies can be compared. |
