Resumen
RESUMEN: La salud oral, estĆ” condicionada tanto por factores locales individuales como por factores socioeconĆ³micos, culturales, ambientales, comunitarios y geogrĆ”ficos, entre estos Ćŗltimos la condiciĆ³n urbano-rural cumple un rol importante. En un esfuerzo de vigilancia epidemiolĆ³gica; se realizĆ³ el primer estudio en la zona que se fija como propĆ³sito comparar la salud oral en niƱos de 6 a 12 aƱos de zonas rurales y urbanas, mediante indicadores de caries, estado de la salud periodontal y presencia de anomalĆas dentomaxilares. Estudio de prevalencia en escolares entre 6 y 12 aƱos de zonas urbana y rural de la RegiĆ³n de ValparaĆso. La muestra correspondiĆ³ a 231 niƱos que presentaron denticiĆ³n mixta o permanente. Las variables recogidas fueron edad, sexo, localidad, presencia de alteraciones mucosas, dentomaxilares y periodontales; Ćndices ceod, COPD, Ćndice de higiene oral; presencia de sellantes y necesidad de tratamiento; nivel educacional de jefe de hogar, del encargado del niƱo y situaciĆ³n laboral del jefe de hogar. La base de datos se analizĆ³ mediante Microsoft Excel y Stata 13.0. Se realizĆ³ estadĆstica descriptiva e inferencial bivariante y multivariante. La presencia de caries, gingivitis generalizada y alteraciones mucosas fueron significativamente mayores en sector rural, al igual que la necesidad de tratamiento de anomalĆas dentomaxilares, restauraciones y caries. Los promedios de ceod y COPD fueron mayores en sector rural que urbano, con diferencias estadĆsticamente significativas. A travĆ©s de un modelo lineal se observĆ³ que variables como educaciĆ³n del jefe de hogar y encargado del niƱo y situaciĆ³n laboral del jefe de hogar no resultaron significativas al intentar explicar la variabilidad de COPD y ceod, pero sĆ la localidad. La salud oral presentĆ³ mayor daƱo en niƱos de sector rural constituyĆ©ndose en factor de riesgo para caries, daƱo periodontal, anomalĆas dentomaxilares, y menor acceso a los servicios de salud.
ABSTRACT: Oral health is conditioned by individual local factors and also by socioeconomic, cultural, environmental, community, geographical factors where living in rural or urban areas plays an important role. It is an effort of epidemiological surveillance; the first study in this area that aimed to compare oral health in children aged 6-12 years old in rural and urban locations, using as indicators the presence of caries, periodontal health status and presence of dento-maxillary anomalies. Prevalence study in school population of children aged 6-12 years old from urban and rural locations of Valparaiso Region. The study sample was taken from 231 children who had mixed or permanent dentition. The variables measured were: age, gender, location, presence of mucosa, periodontal and dento maxillary anomalies; dmft/DMFT index, oral hygiene index; presence of sealants and need of treatment; educational level of household head and child caregiver and the employment/ unemployment situation of the household head. The database was analyzed using Microsoft Excel and Stata 13.0. Descriptive statistics and bivariate multivariate inferential statistics were performed. The presence of caries, generalized gingivitis and mucosa lesions were significantly higher in rural areas, as well as, the need of treatment of dento maxillary anomalies, restorations and caries. The average dmft and DMFT index were higher in rural than urban, with significant difference. Through linear model variables such as education of the household head and child caregiver the employment/ unemployment situation of the household head were not significant when trying to explain the variability of DMFT and dmft index, but living in urban or rural areas was an important factor. Oral Health was worse in children from rural areas and constitutes a risk factor for dental caries, periodontal damage, dento maxillary anomalies and less access to health services.
