Resumen
Debido al excesivo consumo de agua o alimentos que presenten en su composición flúor, el esmalte dental puede manifestar alteración durante su formación en la etapa de desarrollo de los dientes manifestándose como manchas blancas difusas a eso se lo denomina fluorosis dental. El propósito de este trabajo es determinar la prevalencia de fluorosis dental en niños de 6 a 12 años en la Unidad Educativa Fiscomisional Marianita de Jesús (Cajabamba – Ecuador) periodo 2019-2020 , La investigación es de tipo cuantitativa debido a que se examinaron a 90 niños donde se recogieron datos en la ficha clínica y se realizó a través del método observacional, dando como resultado el 58% en los estudiantes evaluados con presencia de algún tipo de fluorosis , en cuanto a género que más predomino con fluorosis dental fue el femenino con un 71%, a la severidad de la fluorosis dental de acuerdo al índice de Deán el 75% presento fluorosis dental leve, la edad más afectada con fluorosis dental fue de niños de 8 años con el 36% y las piezas más afectadas fueron los centrales con un 58%.
Due to the excessive consumption of water or food that appear in its fluorine composition, the dental enamel can manifest alteration during its formation in the stage of development of the teeth that manifests itself as diffuse as White spots also known as dental fluorosis. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children aged 6 to 12 years at the “Marianita de Jesus” Educational Unit (Cajabamba-Ecuador) during the 2019-2020 academic period. The research is quantitative because it is examined in 90 children where data is recorded in the clinical record and is carried out through the observational method. Findings suggest that 58%of evaluated students present some type of fluorosis ,Regarding gender the female sex presented dental fluorosis with 71%. The 75% of patients presented mild dental fluorosis according to the Dean index. The age most affected with dental fluorosis was in children of 8 years with 36%and the most variable teeth were the central incisor with 58%.
