Resumen
El contenido del presente trabajo busca determinar el estado de salud periodontal general y su prevalencia en un grupo de pacientes embarazadas. Existe falta de conocimiento por parte de las embarazadas acerca de los diferentes cambios que experimentan durante el periodo de gestación, algunos de los cuales se manifiestan en la cavidad bucal, siendo uno de los más frecuentes la enfermedad periodontal. En nuestro país existen pocas estadísticas sobre las pacientes embarazadas que manifiestan enfermedad periodontal y sobre el nivel de conocimiento que tienen de la misma. Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo con una muestra de 40 pacientes embarazadas ente 17 a 35 años de edad que acudieron a la consulta externa odontológica del Hospital Gineco Obstétrico Enrique C. Sotomayor de la ciudad de Guayaquil, se analizaron los factores de riesgo y el grado de información que poseían sobre estas lesiones a través de encuestas, dicha información fue organizada y presentada en respectivas tablas estadísticas. La alteración estomatológica más frecuente encontrada fue la gingivitis y la falta de información sobre cuidados odontológicos durante el periodo de embarazo fueron los factores de riesgo que prevalecieron. A través de la investigación realizada podemos concluir que la enfermedad periodontal es una afección común durante el embarazo donde interviene también la falta de información impartida a las embarazadas por parte de los profesionales de la salud bucal.
