Resumen
Las enfermedades bucales son un grave problema de salud pública, debido a la presencia de dolores, malestar y desmejoramiento de la salud especialmente de los niños, que se producen por una mala alimentación, un inadecuado cepillado de los dientes. Objetivo general: Evaluar los factores que inciden en las patologías bucodentales en los estudiantes de la escuela “Jardín de la Infancia” de la parroquia rural Carlos Concha del cantón Esmeraldas, durante el período lectivo 2016. La investigación realizada fue de tipo no experimental, transversal – correlacional cuantitativa. La muestra en estudio fueron 153 padres de familia de los niños que se educan en el centro educativo. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el 91% de los niños tienen caries o algún problema bucodental, presentándose mayoritariamente en el sexo femenino, el 43% de los padres nunca han llevado a sus hijos al odontólogo; el 49% respondieron que no sabían que la alimentación tiene relación con la salud bucal; el 56% no tienen cuidado en la dieta de sus hijos. Se concluye que los niños de la escuela Jardín de la Infancia de la parroquia Carlos Concha, no tienen una buena salud bucal, y los factores sociales, culturales y educacionales influyen en la salud bucal de los niños de la escuela. Se recomienda que en la escuela Jardín de la Infancia se establezcan programas educativos que contemplen el desarrollo de seminarios, charlas, ferias, dirigidas a padres de familia, estudiantes y docentes para controlar y disminuir la incidencia de enfermedades bucodentales, especialmente la caries dental.
