La Fluorosis dental afecta a la mayoría de los niños causando alteraciones en el esmalte dental por lo cual se realizara un estudio donde obtendremos la prevalencia en escolares de 6 a 12 años de edad tanto de la sierra (Ciudad de Guachapala) y la costa (Benjamín Carrión), determinar el grado de severidad y las consecuencias que tienen la ingesta de agua y el uso de materiales en la higiene bucal, OBJETIVO: Determinar la prevalencia de la Fluorosis dental en niños de 6 a 12 años de edad en las unidades educativas Benjamín Carrión y Ciudad de Guachapala de la costa y la sierra en el periodo 2019-2020. METODOLOGÍA: descriptiva, transversal, cuantitativa, observacional, se realizó una observación clínica y se analizó factores influyentes en la prevalencia de dicha enfermedad la fuente de consumo de agua y el uso de materiales de higiene oral a todos los estudiantes de ambas escuelas que abarcaron una población de 330 con el fin de levantar toda la información necesaria para realizar nuestra investigación RESULTADOS: en la zona sierra encontramos una prevalencia de 51 estudiantes con fluorosis dental , mientras que en la costa se encontró un total de 33 estudiantes que presentaban fluorosis dental CONCLUSION: existe una mayor prevalencia de fluorosis dental en la región sierra debido al consumo de agua que es a través de la llave el cual se convierte en un factor de riesgo para la prevalencia y los niveles de fluorosis dental.
