Resumen
El primer molar se lo considera una de las piezas fundamentales y esenciales en la oclusión, su erupción abre paso al recambio dentario hacia una dentición permanente, su aparición en boca va a determinar el tipo de oclusión. Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de pérdida prematura del primer molar permanente. Materiales y métodos: Estudio de tipo cuantitativo, descriptivo, observacional y transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada de 76 estudiantes de 6 a 8 años, de ambos sexos, las variables estudiadas fueron género, edad y el valor potencial cariogénico. Resultados: La prevalencia de pérdida del primer molar permanente fue del 4%, con predomino del sexo masculino 67% y la edad de 8 años con 67%, el potencial cariogénico más prevalente fue el de moderado riesgo 50%, seguido por el de riesgo bajo 45% y 5% con riesgo alto. Conclusiones: La prevalencia de pérdida del primer molar permanente muy baja y el riesgo cardiogénico moderado es el más frecuente
The first molar is considered one of the fundamental and essential pieces in occlusion, its eruption opens the way for tooth replacement towards permanent dentition, and its appearance in the mouth will determine the type of occlusion. Objective: To determine the prevalence of premature loss of the first permanent molar. Materials and methods: A quantitative, descriptive, observational, and cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of 76 students between 6 and 8 years of age, of both sexes. The variables studied were gender, age, and cariogenic potential value. Results: The prevalence of loss of the first permanent molar was 4%, with a predominance of males sex 67% and age of 8 years at 67%, the most prevalent cariogenic potential was moderate risk at 50%, followed by low risk at 45% and 5% with high risk. Conclusions: The prevalence of permanent first molar loss is very low and moderate cardiogenic risk is the most frequent.
