Resumen
BALCAZAR-NAJERA, Carlos Alberto et al. Risk factors associated to the dental pulp and periapical pathology. Horiz. sanitario [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.2, pp.111-119. ISSN 2007-7459. https://doi.org/10.19136/hs.v16i2.1450.
Objective:
To identify risk factors associated to periapical pathology and dental pulp in patients attending the Juchimán I, DACS-UJAT clinic.
Materials and methods:
Analytical observational study of cases (n = 60) and controlled patients (1: 1) with periapical pathology and dental pulp respectively. It was done a Descriptive statistics and the odds ratio, confidence intervals and p value <0.05 was calculated.
Results:
It was observed in males an OR: 1.14 (CI: 0.55-2.43), in a group aged from 21 to 30 presents OR: 2.42- (CI 0.47-12.28). The degree is OR: 1.66 (CI: 0.17- 2.04) presented by the professional OR: 2.08 (CI: 0.95-2.49). The predisposing factor was dental caries OR: 3.08 (CI: 1.10-8.58) It was observed in the factors associated with trauma that a pathological deterioration of OR: 1.50 (CI: 0.72-3.11). A daily intake of soda presents OR: 2.38 (CI: 0.47-3.82) occasional fried food consumption OR: 7.6 (CI 0.90-53.84) and OR 2.1 (CI 0.20-22.32) Sweets and candies daily consumption shows OR: 4.96 (CI: 1.11-22.04). The most affected organ was the first right lower back tooth and the left presents an OR: 2.0 (CI: 0.90-44.20) and OR: 1.14 (CI: 0.54-23.91), according to the left lower quadrant, presents OR 1.27 (CI: 0.38-4.19), the lower arch presents OR: 1.23 (CI: 0.39-1.68) the only variables with a statistically significant value of p <0.05 were tooth decay, consumption of sweets, fried food and candies.
Conclusions:
We found in this study that the risk factors are still modifiable for preventing periapical disease.
