This survey included students from first to fifth year and candidates for postgraduate programs and postgraduate students. A survey was conducted to freshmen to fifth year and included leveling students and graduate students, the total number of respondents was 460 students which included students from first to fifth, leveling and graduate students, a response rate found of 87.47%, where 256 (66.7%) were women, 128 (33.33%) were men, most urban origin 96.3%, the index number HU-DBI was for preclinical students with DS 8.89 and 1,542 students with clinical experience with DS 1.485 9.49. In this study we found no difference in rates between men and women, and the fact this rate increases with education of theoretical and increases further contact with patients, which is maintained, and that graduate students have lower rates of HU-DBI than students of 4th and 5th year, a finding that requires further study

Dental health is an essential part of health and represents an important element for the quality of life. In this sense it is intended to evaluate the attitudes and behaviors of dental health using the approved index Hiroshima University Dental Behavior Inventory (HU-DBI) among the different areas of knowledge of the University of Cuenca. This study was a survey with Sociodemographic variables and 20 dichotomous questions of the HUDBI, which was applied after signing the informed consent forms in all the training areas of the University of Cuenca. The response rate was 56% N=7790 students, with an average age of 21,15 years, DS±2,42 variance of 5,89, the male-female ratio is 1:1,07. The majority of students are of the urban origin with 82,8% and the vast majority are single (7125 students=91,4%). The average of the HU-DBI index is 6,06 with a DS±1,81 and a variance of 3,27. There is a better index of the students of health science compared with the students of other areas. Comparing them with the dental students and the others of the health sciences, dental students who had no clinical contact with patients didn’t have any difference from those of the other health sciences, but the students who have had the clinical contact with patients have a statistically significant difference with the other students of health sciences.

Enfermedad periodontal en pacientes con respiración bucal. Revisión de la literatura
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2022-10-19) Tapia Guerrero, Anabel Estefany; Salinas Villacis, Daniela Carolina; Cobos Carrera, Diego Fernando
Periodontal disease involves pathological processes affecting the periodontium. Mouth breathing parafunction leads to changes in salivary flow patterns and water imbalance, resulting in oral disease. The aim of this study was, through a literature review, to analyze the results of several investigations that have established a relationship between periodontal disease and mouth breathing. Methodology: a search and selection of articles related to periodontal disease in patients with mouth breathing was carried out. The search criteria taken into account were: electronic databases, key words and meeting the indispensable requirement of being less than 5 years old. Thirty-three articles were selected that met the criteria for the present review. Results and conclusion: periodontal disease and mouth breathing may be associated with generalized systemic inflammation. Changes in the nasal breathing pattern may alter normal anatomical structures leading to the development of periodontal disease triggers.

(2022) Cobos Carrera, Diego Fernando
The use of antihypertensive medication has made it possible to reduce complications related to arterial hyper tension. However, the use of these drugs has generated adverse reac tions in the oral cavity such as xerostomia, gingival hyperplasia, taste alterations, among others. The present study aims to identify in the literature the adverse reactions or undesirable effects related to antihypertensive therapy. A search was carried out in the digital bases in PubMed, Scopus, Scielo and Google Scholar, 27 articles published between 2010-2021, 5 clinical guides and 3 books were selected. The antihypertensive drugs with the highest number of reports in the literature were: angiotensin-converting enzy me inhibitors, calcium channel blockers and diuretics, these being the ones with the highest number of reported adverse reactions in the oral cavity. Xerostomia, taste disturb ances and gingival hyperplasia are the most frequent oral manifestations related to the use of antihypertensives in this review.
