The objective of this research was to record the reasons for dental consultations in patients treated at the Central Military Hospital of Peru during the period from 2001 to 2016, as well as to determine the relationship between gender, age group, and whether treatment was provided. The sample consisted of 27,350 medical records from the years 2001 to 2016, and a formula was used to calculate the representative sample, resulting in 380 medical records. Data collected included medical record number, reason for consultation, gender, age, and whether the treatment was performed. The data were recorded in an Excel 2013 database and later processed using SPSS Version 22. Results: The most frequent reason for consultation was evaluation and diagnosis (44%), followed by dental pain (22%), and restorations (10%). The most common reasons for consultation in both males and females were evaluation and diagnosis, with 44.1% and 59%, respectively. In the elderly patient group, the most common reason for consultation was dental prosthetics, with 32.6%. Additionally, 66.32% of patients who attended consultations received treatment, while 33.68% did not.
