“…It is necessary to continue with this line of research, generating more scientific evidence that allows establishing baselines for the implementation of public policies in oral health. Future research must focus on assess the impact of oral health public policy on OHRQoL of Chilean children, as they were prioritized over the last decades [13,25]. To assess other factors associated with children's OHRQoL, especially socio-behavioral ones [26], must also be considered in future research.…”

“…In Chile, most of the research in OHRQoL has been focused on age groups older than 10 years, with few studies on the preschool population [10][11][12]. The latter is an issue, as it overshadows preschool´s OHRQoL and doesn´t consider the fact that most public policies on oral health in Chile are precisely focused on the child population [13]. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the factors associated with OHRQoL in preschool children of Concepción, Chile.…”

Objective: To identify the factors associated with Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in preschool children of Concepción, Chile. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of enrolled preschoolers who attend public schools in Concepción, Chile. To measure OHRQoL, the chilean version of theEarly Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) was used; sociodemographic variables of the children and their parents were also recorded, as well as variables regarding the last visit to the dentist. To determine differences in the ECOHIS score for categorical variables, ANOVA and t-test were used, while Pearson's r was used to correlate ECOHIS with quantitative variables (p<0.05). Results: A total of 175 children were surveyed, with a distribution of 89 boys and 86 girls aged 56-to-79 months. The total score of the ECOHIS had a mean of 4.48 ±5.96, with a score between 0-38. Statistically significant associations were with parent's educational attainment (r=-0.159), dmft (r=0.380), OHI-S debris (r=0.174) and reason for the last visit to the dentist, the highest average in the ECOHIS scores was registered in the urgency reason. Conclusion: Oral health status, dental service utilization and educational level are associated with the OHRQoL of preschoolers of Concepción.

La caries es considerada todavía una de las enfermedades más prevalentes del mundo. Por este motivo, diversas estrategias de prevención se han desarrollado en los últimos años con el propósito de controlar esta enfermedad. Diferentes especies bacterianas de la microbiota normal de la cavidad oral producen sustancias antagónicas antibacterianas. Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar alguna especie del género Lactobacillus productor de sustancias antagónicas contra Streptococcus mutans a partir de saliva de niños con y sin caries. Materiales y métodos: Se aislaron desde saliva de 60 niños con caries, sin caries activa (rehabilitados) y libres de caries, diferentes cepas de Lactobacillus a las cuales se les estudió su capacidad antagónica contra cepas de Streptococcus mutans , mediante ensayos en doble capa, test del pocillo y sobre crecimiento bacteriano. Resultados: Las cepas que elaboran sustancias con mayor capacidad antagónica fueron identificadas como Lactobacillus fermentum mediante Api test 50 CH. Conclusión: Se demostró que Lactobacillus fermentum está presente en mayor porcentaje en el grupo de niños sin caries, lo cual podría sugerir un efecto natural de control biológico en la cavidad oral de este grupo de niños.
