(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-11-07) Silva Tumba, Jordan; Céspedes Porras, Jacqueline
Dental malocclusion is not a disease but a deviation from the aesthetic norm that requires orthodontic care, as it impacts physical, social, and psychological functioning, which are part of quality of life. It is understood that better aesthetics can lead to psychosocial improvement. Objective: To determine the association between the impact of self-esteem and the need for orthodontic treatment on oral health-related quality of life in children aged 11 to 14 at I.E. San Pedro Santísima Trinidad de Lurín, 2019. Methods: The sample consisted of 150 children, 49.3% male and 50.7% female, with an average age of 12.50 ± 1.08 years (minimum 11 years, maximum 14 years). Results: Self-esteem regarding the need for orthodontic treatment and quality of life, according to the Rosenberg index, demonstrated an association between the need for orthodontic treatment and self-esteem, but no association was found with quality of life or oral health. Additionally, oral health-related quality of life, assessed through the COHIP SF-19 index in relation to the need for orthodontic treatment, showed no statistically significant relationship between these variables. Conclusion: Further studies are proposed to assess the impact of self-esteem in relation to orthodontic treatments, including follow-up of patients after corrective treatments.

The main objective of this research is to determine the presence of dental malocclusion and its relationship with temporomandibular disorder using the Simplified Fonseca Anamnestic Index in patients at the Clas Nuevo Lurín Health Center in 2021. The research method used was hypothetical-deductive, observational, analytical, and cross-sectional. For this study, 200 adult patients who visited the Dentistry Department of the Clas Nuevo Lurín Health Center were evaluated, selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data processing was carried out using IBM SPSS Statistics 25 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), and the Chi-square test was used to determine the relationship between dental malocclusion and temporomandibular disorder. The results showed that 45.5% (n=91) of the patients evaluated had dental malocclusion, and of these, 85.7% (n=78) had some degree of temporomandibular disorder severity (mild, moderate, or severe). It was determined that the age range of 21 to 50 years showed a temporomandibular disorder rate of 22.5% (n=55). Also, it was found that according to Angle's classification, Class II had the highest number of temporomandibular disorder cases, with a rate of 65.7% (n=90). Patients with missing teeth had the highest number of temporomandibular disorder cases, accounting for 43.0% (n=86). According to the Simplified Fonseca Anamnestic Index questionnaire, the most common symptom was item No. 10 (Do you consider yourself a tense "nervous" person?) with a value of 24.0% (n=68). The clinical examination showed that patients with normal mouth opening (>40mm) had the highest number of temporomandibular disorder cases, with a rate of 54.5% (n=109), and the highest prevalence of mild temporomandibular disorder, with a rate of 38.5% (n=77). Regarding lateralization, the highest value was 28.0% (n=56), corresponding to mild limitation (4-7mm), of which 20.5% (n=41) were patients with mild temporomandibular disorder. It was concluded that there is a statistically significant relationship between dental malocclusion and temporomandibular disorder.

Breastfeeding is essential for the growth of maxillofacial structures in newborns, while non-nutritive sucking habits hinder proper harmonic oral development, favoring the presence of malocclusions. Additionally, their early onset affects the duration and frequency of breastfeeding. Objective: To determine the association between types of breastfeeding and non-nutritive sucking habits in children aged 3 to 6 years with dental malocclusion. Methodology: This was a descriptive, observational, cross-sectional, prospective study. The sample consisted of 203 children aged 3 to 6 years with dental malocclusion. Data collection was performed using the instrument by Hidalgo M. (2015), and intraoral clinical examinations were conducted. Results: A statistically significant association was found between types of breastfeeding and digital sucking and object sucking habits (p=0.002, p=0.012, respectively). No significant association was observed for pacifier sucking and lip sucking habits (p=0.065, p=0.211, respectively). Exclusive breastfeeding prevalence was 56%, and mixed breastfeeding 44%. The most prevalent breastfeeding duration was two years, accounting for 42%. The most common type of malocclusion was anterior deep bite (46.3%), followed by anterior open bite (33.9%). Conclusion: Types of breastfeeding were associated with digital and object sucking habits, but no association was found with lip sucking or pacifier sucking habits.

Dental malocclusion is an occlusal alteration, not considered a disease, and is conditioned by various ethnic and cultural traits, altering aesthetics and function. This makes it difficult to define and classify. The purpose of this research is to determine the frequency and severity of malocclusion and the need for treatment according to the Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) in students aged 12 to 16 at Fe y Alegría School No. 53, Lima – 2018. Materials and Methods: This is a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study with 113 students aged 12 to 16, evaluated through an intraoral clinical examination using the Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI). Data were collected, and a diagnostic team was used for the clinical examination. Results: It was determined that 51 (45.1%) students had "No abnormalities or mild malocclusion"; 27 (23.9%) students had "Manifest malocclusion"; 23 (20.4%) students had "Severe malocclusion"; and 12 (10.6%) students had "Very severe or disabling malocclusion." Additionally, when evaluating the prevalence of treatment needs for malocclusions from the mildest to the most severe, it was found that 51 (45.1%) students had "Unnecessary or slightly necessary"; 27 (23.9%) students had "Optional"; 23 (20.4%) students had "Highly desirable"; and 12 (10.6%) students had "Mandatory." Regarding the severity of malocclusions and the need for treatment based on age, statistically significant differences were found, while no significant differences were found by sex. Conclusions: It was concluded that the majority of individuals (45.1%) do not require orthodontic treatment.
