Abstract
El presente informe tuvo como objetivo determinar el nivel de
severidad de maloclusiones y la necesidad de tratamiento ortodóncico en
alumnos de la Institución Educativa 60946 Mariscal Oscar R. Benavides,
Iquitos 2023, donde se optó por una investigación tipo básica nivel
descriptivo y diseño experimental; conformada por una población de 2636
alumnos a quienes se les empleo una ficha de observación para la
recolección de datos. Los resultados indican que la mitad de los alumnos
con maloclusión leve no necesitan tratamiento ortodóncico, indicando su
alineación es aceptable. Un notable porcentaje con maloclusión definida
requiere tratamiento adicional para mejorar estética o funciones. Sin
embargo, por el alto nivel de maloclusión severa y muy severa,
tratamiento ortodóncico es priorizado para mejorar la salud bucal y
bienestar. Además, los estudiantes entre los 13 15 y 16 años muestran
una oclusión normal o levemente desviada; mientras que los alumnos de
13, 14, 15 y 16 años presentan baja necesidad de tratamiento
ortodóncico, salvo una pequeña porción de alumnos mayores a 14,
necesitando un procedimiento optativo o electivo. No obstante, un
pequeño grupo de 15 años muestra una necesidad de tratamiento
deseable. Finalmente, el porcentaje de maloclusión leve es ligeramente
mayor en los hombres por lo que no requiere tratamiento, mientras que el
porcentaje de maloclusión definida es ligeramente mayor en las mujeres
presentando una necesidad de tratamiento optativo o electivo.
The objective of this report was to determine the level of severity of malocclusions and the need for orthodontic treatment in students of the Educational Institution 60946 Mariscal Oscar R. Benavides, Iquitos 2023, where a basic research type descriptive level and experimental design was chosen; made up of a population of 2636 students who were used an observation sheet for data collection. The results indicate that half of the students with mild malocclusion do not need orthodontic treatment, indicating that their alignment is acceptable. A notable percentage with defined malocclusion requires additional treatment to improve aesthetics or functions. However, due to the high level of severe and very severe malocclusion, orthodontic treatment is prioritized to improve oral health and well-being. In addition, students between the ages of 13, 15, and 16 show normal or slightly deviated occlusion; while students aged 13, 14, 15 and 16 have a low need for orthodontic treatment, except for a small portion of students older than 14, needing an elective or elective procedure. However, a small group of 15-year-olds shows a desirable treatment need. Finally, the percentage of mild malocclusion is slightly higher in men, which does not require treatment, while the percentage of defined malocclusion is slightly higher in women presenting a need for optional or elective treatment.
