According to the World Health Organization and the International Dental Federation, dental caries and gingivitis are the most prevalent oral health conditions among schoolchildren. Therefore, both pre-adolescents, adolescents, and young people must have an adequate level of knowledge about oral health. The objective of this research was to compare the level of knowledge about oral health and oral hygiene status before and after an educational intervention in children aged 8 to 13 years from the I.E. José Abelardo Quiñones - Ate, Lima, Peru, 2015. The sample consisted of 225 children aged between 8 and 13, who were given a questionnaire on oral health knowledge, and their oral hygiene index was recorded. The results showed that more than 80% of children had poor oral health knowledge, which improved to a good level after the educational intervention, with over 90% showing improvement. Also, over 70% of children presented poor knowledge based on their age group, which improved to a good level with more than 90% after the educational intervention. Regarding the Oral Hygiene Index (OHI), more than 80% of children had a poor OHI, which improved to a good level with over 90% after the educational intervention. When evaluating the children by age after the intervention, the oral hygiene index improved. It was concluded that the children initially had a poor Oral Hygiene Index and oral health knowledge, which improved to a good level following the educational intervention. It was also concluded that children with poor knowledge of oral health also had a poor Oral Hygiene Index, which changed to a good level after the educational interventions.

The objective of the study was to determine the level of quality of care perceived by the responsible person of pediatric dental patients treated at the Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener clinic. The study was descriptive, prospective, and cross-sectional. The population consisted of all the responsible individuals of pediatric dental patients who received care at the clinic during the second semester of 2012. The sample included 102 individuals over 18 years of age, chosen from the Clinic of the Child I and II, using simple random sampling. The SERVQHOS instrument was used, which was modified and validated. The results showed that the quality level was good in 64%, regular in 34%, and poor in a small percentage of 2%. It was also determined that dimensions related to objective quality (such as punctuality in care and staff appearance) negatively influenced the perceived quality. No differences were found in objective quality between its dimensions. The sociodemographic factor that influenced the perceived quality level was the education level, where a significant association between variables was found. It was concluded that, although there is a high level of satisfaction from the responsible individuals of pediatric dental patients, better results could be achieved by improving punctuality in care and the appearance of the clinic.

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of oral problems on the quality of life of schoolchildren. This was an observational, prospective, cross-sectional, and analytical study, with a randomly selected systematic sample. The sample consisted of 274 children aged 11-14 years enrolled in public educational institutions in Pamplona Alta, San Juan de Miraflores, 2016. The complete version of the CPQ 11-14 questionnaire, consisting of 37 questions, was used. Statistical analysis was performed using the independent t-test (p < 0.05), ANOVA (p < 0.05), and the Chi-Square test (p < 0.05). The total CPQ score was 40.89 ± 17.34, with 97.81% showing a very high dental caries index (8.18), with greater impact in 14-year-olds. Additionally, 17.52% had dental trauma, with a predominance in males and 13-year-olds, and 48.18% had a need for orthodontic treatment, with both sexes being affected and a predominance in 12 to 13-year-olds. In conclusion, there was a high prevalence of dental caries, low prevalence of dental trauma, and a need for orthodontic treatment. Oral problems did not negatively influence the quality of life of the schoolchildren.

Purpose: The study aimed to determine the DMFT (Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth) index, salivary flow volume, and salivary pH level in pregnant and non-pregnant adolescents at the Second Level Hospital Barranca - Cajatambo. Data Collection and Analysis: Data were recorded on a form and statistically analyzed using SPSS software version 21.0. Statistical tests used included Chi-square (X2) and Spearman's correlation coefficient, with a significance level of 0.05. Conclusions: It was found that 63.10% of the pregnant adolescent group belonged to the late adolescence stage, with these results being statistically significant (p=0.000). The DMFT index for pregnant adolescents was high at 50.80%, with these results being statistically significant (p=0.00). It was observed that the salivary flow volume (ml/min) was high in the group of non-pregnant adolescents, with these results being statistically significant (p=0.00). Pregnant adolescents showed an acidic salivary pH level of 66.5%, with these results being statistically significant (p=0.00). Additionally, it was found that pregnant adolescents aged 17 to 19 years had a high DMFT index (5.95 ± SD 5.47), with these results being statistically significant (p=0.008 and 0.002). Finally, the relationship between DMFT and salivary flow volume and DMFT and salivary pH level showed statistically non-significant results (p>0.05).

This research aimed to determine the influence of the dental anxiety of the accompanying person on the behavior and anxiety of children aged 6 to 14 years during dental care, conducted at the University of Norbert Wiener’s Dental Clinic. The study involved children aged 6 to 14 who came with their companions for dental treatment. The anxiety of the companion was assessed using the Modified Corah Scale (MDAS) in its Spanish version, the child’s behavior was evaluated using the Frankl Behavior Scale, and the child’s anxiety was measured using the Facial Image Scale (FIS). The sample consisted of 100 children and their companions. The study was descriptive and correlational. The results show that the child’s behavior was significantly associated with the anxiety level of the accompanying person. However, the child’s anxiety levels during dental care were not associated with the anxiety levels of the accompanying person. Overall, the companions presented a mild to moderate level of anxiety, with male companions showing moderate anxiety (77.8%), while female companions showed 39%. The behavior of the children was positive to definitely positive, and their anxiety level was mild to moderate. The research concludes that the child’s behavior is associated with the dental anxiety of the accompanying person. However, when correlating the child’s anxiety with the dental anxiety of the accompanying person, it was determined that they are not associated factors. The dental anxiety of the companion influences the child’s behavior but does not affect the child’s anxiety during dental care.
