Resumen
El presente trabajo de investigación surge ante la necesidad de identificar cual es el principal factor de riesgo que induce a la pérdida prematura de molares temporarios en infantes de 5 a 9 años. Razón por la cual, el trabajo tiene como objetivo determinar la prevalencia de pérdida prematura de molares temporarios y sus consecuencias en infantes de 5 a 9 años de la Esc. “Pablo Nivela Carriel” del Cantón Balzar y la Esc. “La Providencia” del Cantón Machala del periodo lectivo 2019 – 2020, a nivel metodológico se trata de un estudio descriptivo, cuantitativo, de campo a través del método científico para probar la obtención del resultado que demuestra que la caries dental es el principal causante para que se produzca una pérdida prematura de molares temporarios con un 74%, siendo el primer molar inferior izquierdo quien presente mayor frecuencia de perdida 26% en comparación con el resto de molares. Al final de trabajo se concluye que el género masculino es el que presentó mayor índice de pérdida prematura y la edad más susceptible en edades de 5 a 9 años fue de 7 años. Por este motivo se recomienda la colocación de un tratamiento preventivo ante una pérdida prematura de molares temporarios para conservar la armonía y funcionalidad del sistema estomatognático.
This research arises from the need to identify the main risk factor that induces the premature loss of temporary molars in infants from 5 to 9 years of age. This research aims to determine the prevalence of premature loss of temporary molars and their consequences in infants from 5 to 9 years at the "Pablo Nivela Carriel" school Balzar canton and "La Providencia" school of Machala city during the 2019-2020 academic period. The methodological design corresponds to a descriptive, quantitative, field study. Findings suggest that tooth decay is the main cause for premature loss of temporary molars with 74%; the first lower left molar has the highest frequency of loss with 26% as compared to the rest of molars. At the end of the study, it is concluded that the male gender has the highest rate of premature loss and the most susceptible age within the 5 to 9 year-old group was 7. For this reason it is recommended to place a preventive treatment in the event of a premature loss of temporary molars to preserve the harmony and functionality of the stomatognathic system.
