RESUMENLa anquilosis dentoalveolar se define como el proceso por el cual se produce la unión de la raíz de un diente al hueso alveolar circundante, debido a una reabsorción radicular y una formación de hueso por sustitución. El propósito de este estudio fue analizar la prevalencia de anquilosis en un grupo de pacientes infantiles con una muestra de 402 niños de entre 6 y 9 años. Se encontró una prevalencia del 4,97%, siendo más frecuente en niños y con el pico de incidencia en los 8 años de edad. Estos resultados se asemejan a los hallazgos de otros autores a lo largo de los años.Palabras clave: Anquilosis, infraoclusión, anomalías dentales, ligamento periodontal, agenesia. ABSTRACTDentoalveolar ankylosis is a process defined as the fusión of the tooth's root to the surrounding alveolar bone, due to a root resorption and a new bone formation throught substitution. The purpose of this study was to analyze the prevalence of dental ankylosis in a sample of 402 children between 6 and 9 years. We found a prevalence of 4,97%, more frequently in boys and with the highest rate of incidence ocurring in the group of 8 years. These results are similar to the findings other authors have found through the years.
