The objective of this research project was to determine the attitudes and knowledge regarding childhood dental trauma in parents of children treated at the Dentistry Service of the María Auxiliadora Hospital, 2017. An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, and prospective study was conducted. The sample consisted of 120 parents of children treated at the Dentistry Service of the María Auxiliadora Hospital in 2017. A questionnaire was applied to the parents to assess their attitudes and knowledge about childhood dental trauma. This instrument was previously validated by expert judgment (content validation). The survey also collected data on the parents' sex, age group, and level of education. The results showed that the predominant attitude towards childhood dental trauma was indecisive, and the predominant level of knowledge was regular, both in males (22.5%) and females (33.3%), with higher percentages in the 20-29 years and 30-39 years age groups, and higher percentages of secondary and technical higher education. The study concluded that due to the indecisive attitudes and regular knowledge levels regarding childhood dental trauma, it is necessary to inform and train the population to adopt appropriate behavior in response to this situation.

Dental caries is a pathological process resulting from the action of acids produced by bacteria. The most vulnerable population for developing caries is school-aged children, and they have become accustomed to living with it, despite increasing evidence that oral disease significantly impacts overall health and social well-being. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the relationship between the level of dental caries and the level of knowledge about oral health in schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 years in El Agustino, Lima-Peru, 2016. A sample of 205 schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 years was selected. They filled out a previously validated oral health questionnaire, which consisted of 10 questions on prevention, dental caries, diet, and hygiene, with alternative responses and a score from 0 to 20, each scored with 2 points.
