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.

According to the World Health Organization and the International Dental Federation, dental caries and gingivitis are the most prevalent oral pathologies in schoolchildren. Therefore, adolescents and young individuals must have an adequate level of knowledge about oral hygiene, not only to feel good but also to help maintain good health. The objective of this research was to determine the level of knowledge about oral health and the prevention of oral diseases in 1st and 2nd-year secondary school students at the Colegio Nacional Nicolás de Piérola in the Acarí district, Arequipa, during the 2015 period. The sample consisted of 240 students who met the inclusion criteria for 1st and 2nd-year secondary students, who were surveyed on their level of knowledge regarding oral health and the prevention of oral diseases. The results showed that 71.1% of the population had a regular level of knowledge, 22.2% had poor knowledge, and 6.7% had good knowledge about oral health and the prevention of oral diseases. Notably, males had a higher level of knowledge than females, students aged 12 to 13 years had more knowledge about oral health and disease prevention, and the highest level of knowledge was found among 1st-year secondary students. In conclusion, the 1st and 2nd-year secondary school students at the Colegio Nacional Nicolás de Piérola in the Acarí district have a regular level of knowledge about oral health and the prevention of oral diseases.

Association of artificial flavoring with the ph level of locally marketed water beverages in 2021
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-10-21) Sánchez Linares, Maricielo; Guevara Sotomayor, Juan César
The maintenance of oral health is influenced by pH levels, which can vary due to the consumption of acidic foods and beverages. The main issue to analyze is how artificial flavoring is associated with pH levels in locally marketed flavored water drinks. This aspect can be analyzed in a laboratory to measure the levels and their differences based on the flavor, with the ultimate goal of understanding the potential effects caused by the consumption of flavored beverages on the oral cavity and determining whether they provide any benefit to our health. Methodology: The sample used consisted of 5 types of beverages, with 25 samples divided into 5 of lemon flavor, 5 of blackberry and strawberry flavor, 5 of apple flavor, 5 of pineapple flavor, and 5 without flavor. Results: Based on the interpretation, it was determined that the p-value was greater than 0.05, allowing us to accept the null hypothesis and conclude that the variables are independent. Conclusions: The beverages used in the study showed varying pH levels among lemon, blackberry and strawberry, apple, pineapple, and non-flavored drinks, with acidic levels found in the flavored drinks, unlike the non-flavored drink. For dentistry, this generates a beneficial preventive result for the population.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-11-24) Chavez Nieto, Melisa Ivany; Girano Castaños, Jorge Alberto
The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and hemoglobin levels concerning oral health in adolescents at the secondary level in the Jacques Cousteau Private Educational Institution, Carabayllo – 2022. Methodology: A quantitative approach was used with a non-experimental design and correlational scope, involving a total of 70 secondary school students. Instruments used included the BMI observation sheet, a hemoglobin test, and the CPOD index to assess oral health. Results: The results showed that hemoglobin and oral health had a significance of 0.00, which is less than 0.05, and a Pearson correlation of 0.468, indicating a moderate positive correlation. On the other hand, BMI and its relationship with oral health did not show significance, as it was 0.691, which is greater than 0.05. Conclusion: Therefore, it was concluded that oral health is related to hemoglobin levels, but it does not show an association with BMI.

Objective: To validate an instrument for measuring the level of knowledge about oral health in children aged five and six years at I.E. 5083 San Martin de Porres-Callao in 2019. Materials and Methods: This was an observational, prospective, descriptive, and cross-sectional study. Data collection was conducted through a survey using a valid and reliable instrument. Results: Content validity was achieved through a literature review, resulting in an 11-item instrument. These items were evaluated using Aiken's V, scoring 0.9 in expert judgment, which led to the removal of one question. The instrument underwent an initial reliability test with 10 questions, yielding a result of "<0.60," prompting the removal of question 8. A second pilot test was conducted, achieving a reliability score of "0.74," demonstrating the instrument’s reliability. The validated instrument was then applied to a sample of 184 children aged 5 and 6 years at I.E. 5083 San Martin de Porres in Lima-Callao, revealing a medium level of knowledge among the students. Conclusion: The instrument for measuring the level of knowledge about oral health in children aged 5 and 6 years is valid and reliable.

The purpose of this study was to determine the presence of denture stomatitis in elderly patients wearing complete dentures at the Canevaro Shelter, Lima-2018. In this study, 96 denture wearers were examined, where a visual examination was conducted using basic diagnostic tools to locate the lesion area, the duration of prosthesis use, and the condition of the prosthesis. The results were as follows: the total presence of denture stomatitis was 100%; the most common grade was type II with 58.3%, followed by grade I with 29.2% and 12.5% with grade III. Lesions were more frequent in individuals who wore complete dentures for over 5 years. It was concluded that the high frequency of patients with various degrees of denture stomatitis is associated with factors such as the condition of the prostheses and the duration of use, significantly affecting the oral health of the patients studied.
