Abstract

Se realiza un estudio epidemiológico descriptivo transversal, en un universo de 608 niños de ambos sexos, comprendidos entre 6 y 11 años de edad, de la escuela Agusto César Sandino del municipio Ciego de Ávila, durante el curso 2004-2005, con  la finalidad de revelar las principales alteraciones bucales que presentan los niños con hábito de succión digital,  a modo, de contribuir al  perfeccionamiento de la intervención preventiva y curativa. Para la recogida de la información se utilizó  la observación directa y la técnica de entrevista estandarizada para la  identificación de  la presencia de dicho hábito y de las alteraciones bucales. Los resultados  pusieron de manifiesto que del total de niños portadores del hábito de succión digital  el 75.4% presentaron maloclusiones; evidenciándose entre las  alteraciones clínicas bucales más frecuentes la vestibuloversión de incisivos superiores y la mordida abierta anterior.
