Resumen
La dieta no solo tiene gran relevancia en la salud general, sino también en la salud oral,
siendo un factor de riesgo para la aparición de diversas enfermedades. El ser humano en el
transcurso de la evolución ha cambiado la percepción de la alimentación, hoy en día hay una gran
tendencia hacia la alimentación basada en plantas, dejando de lado el consumo de carne y sus
derivados motivados por factores éticos y morales, donde se sabe la cavidad oral y la saliva se ha
utilizado como instrumento diagnostico para distintas patologías. Por esta razón, el objetivo de este
trabajo fue describir y comparar el índice de Dieta Mediterránea según pH salival en mujeres
estudiantes de Odontología de entre 20 a 30 años. Se realizo un estudio observacional de tipo
transversal, cuya muestra considero una selección no probabilística de 17 mujeres estudiantes de
Odontología, quienes fueron evaluadas en su pH salival e Índice de Dieta Mediterránea, siendo las
comparaciones entre grupos realizadas a través de la T de Student para muestras independientes y
U Mann-Whitney. Existen diferencias significativas entre grupos para la frecuencia de consumo
de cereales integrales (p = 0,026), carnes magras ((p = 0,021) y pH salival (p < 0,001). En
conclusión, en ambos grupos existe un predominio hacia la baja adherencia a una dieta
mediterránea, existiendo diferencias significativas en la frecuencia de consumo de cereales
integrales y carnes magras, siendo el consumo de estos un indicador de riesgo bucal.
Diet not only has great relevance in general health, but also in oral health, being a risk factor for the appearance of various diseases. The human being in the course of evolution has changed the perception of food, today there is a great trend towards plant-based food, leaving aside the consumption of meat and its derivatives motivated by ethical and moral factors, where knows the oral cavity and saliva has been used as a diagnostic tool for different pathologies. For this reason, the objective of this work was to describe and compare the Mediterranean Diet index according to salivary pH in female dentistry students between 20 and 30 years old. A crosssectional observational study was carried out, whose sample considered a non-probabilistic selection of 17 female dentistry students, who were evaluated in their salivary pH and Mediterranean Diet Index, with comparisons between groups made through Student's T for independent samples and U Mann-Whitney. There are significant differences between groups for the frequency of consumption of whole grains (p = 0.026), lean meats ((p = 0.021) and salivary pH (p < 0.001). In conclusión, in both groups there is a predominance towards low adherence to a Mediterranean diet, with significant differences in the frequency of consumption of whole grains and lean meats, their consumption being an indicator of oral risk.
