Resumen
El empleo de sustancias químicas antisépticas es el procedimiento de elección para tratar los hidrocoloides irreversibles. Es favorable manipular los mismos asépticos que habitualmente utilizamos en el campo odontológico, pero aplicando componentes, tales como la clorhexidina y agua ozonizada que por su concentración y tiempo de exposición minimizan los efectos adversos en los materiales de impresión. El objetivo fue establecer el nivel de conocimiento sobre el uso de clorhexidina – hidrocoloides irreversibles y agua ozonizada - hidrocoloides irreversibles, en los estudiantes del décimo semestre de la Facultad Piloto de Odontología de la Universidad de Guayaquil.
El presente estudio se realizó en la Facultad Piloto de Odontología de la Universidad de Guayaquil. Se evaluaron 150 estudiantes odontólogos de la facultad; la información conseguida se la obtuvo mediante una encuesta de conocimientos generales de uso de clorhexidina y agua ozonizada en la mezcla de hidrocoloides irreversibles. De los resultados obtenidos, se pudo observar en la escala de conocimiento lo siguiente: 1. Nivel Bajo = 0-4; 2. Nivel Medio= 5-6; 3. Nivel Alto = 7-9. Determinándose que el 80% de los estudiantes desconocen de la clorhexidina y agua ozonizada como agentes desinfectantes, el 19% mantienen un nivel de conocimiento medio y el 1% corresponde a alumnos que conocen sobre el correcto manejo de desinfección de las impresiones dentales, con el fin de evitar una contaminación cruzada en un área odontológica. Se concluyó que el nivel de conocimiento de los estudiantes de la Facultad Piloto de Odontología sobre el uso de la clorhexidina y agua ozonizada fue bajo y deficiente
The use of antiseptic chemicals is the right procedure for treating irreversible hydrocolloids. It is favorable to manipulate the most common aseptic that we usually use in the dental field, but applying components, such as chlorhexidine and ozonated water which, by their concentration and exposure time, minimize adverse effects on printing materials. The objective of this study is to establish the level of knowledge on the use of chlorhexidine – irreversible hydrocolloids and ozonated water, in the students of the tenth semester of the Pilot School of Dentistry of the University of Guayaquil. A total of 150 dental students from the faculty were evaluated; the information was obtained through a survey of general knowledge of the use of chlorhexidine and ozonated water in the mixture of irreversible hydrocolloids. From the results obtained, the following can be observed on the knowledge scale: 1. Low Level = 0-4; 2. Middle Level= 5-6; 3. High Level = 7-9. 80 per cent of students are not aware of chlorhexidine and ozonated water as disinfectant agents, 19% maintain an average level of knowledge and 1% corresponds to pupils who know about the correct management of disinfection of dental prints to avoid contamination in a dental area. It was concluded that the level of knowledge of students of the Pilot Faculty of Dentistry on the use of chlorhexidine and ozonated water was low and deficient.
