“…De esta forma se puede dar respuesta al perfil de morbilidad planeando los servicios de manera adecuada, ya que el estado de la salud bucal de un individuo, es el eje principal para la toma de decisiones de los múltiples tratamientos odontológicos que (27) este requiere .

“…Sociodemographic differences can thus, help to determine the population epidemiological profile related to needs and healthcare. In this way the disease profile can be used to adequately organised responses and plan services (33). Although social epidemiology studies have identified health inequalities (ie, people of higher socioeconomic position generally have better health), the exact mechanism of this connection is not well understood (34).…”

Objective:To determine the treatment needs for dental caries and the restorative care index on the permanent dentition of Nicaraguan children. Subjects and Methods:In a cross-sectional study, 1379 schoolchildren aged 6 to 12 years old were evaluated clinically to determine the decay, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) index and to calculate the need for dental caries (TNI) and care indices (CI). Sociodemographic, socio-economic and behavioural data were collected using questionnaires. Results: The mean age was 9.04 ± 1.98 years and 50.2% were female. A relatively higher percentage of TNI was observed in the following groups: younger children (78.0%), males (60.1%), children of higher birth order (69.1%), the children of older mothers (56.7%), having a negative attitude toward oral health (59.9%), with preventive dental care in the past year (94.2%), less frequent tooth brushing (66.3%), with greater presence of plaque (53.9%), larger family (56.3%), higher socio-economic position [SEP] schooling (60.9%) and lower SEP occupation (58.9%). In addition, we observed a higher percentage of CI amongst the following: older children (52.2%), females (49.9%), those of a lower birth order (47.7%), children of young mothers (47.2%), those with a positive attitude toward oral health (48.6%), receiving preventive/curative dental care in the past year (74.3%), most frequently brushing teeth (51.9%), less presence of plaque (50.0%), small family (45.9%), lower SEP school (53.5%) and higher SEP occupation (52.9%). Conclusions:We show that Nicaraguan children have high treatment needs for dental caries but had little experience of restorative care.
