Las afecciones bucodentales constituyen un problema de salud pública por su alta prevalencia y su fuerte impacto individual y colectivo en términos de dolor, malestar y discapacidad social y funcional. El Centro de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria San Pantaleón, ubicado en la provincia de Buenos Aires, brinda asistencia sanitaria gratuita a la comunidad. Un relevamiento documentó que el 97% de los concurrentes presentaba caries y no se lavaban los dientes por falta de cepillo y pasta dental. Se decidió llevar adelante un programa de promoción de la salud bucodental. El objetivo fue evaluar su implementación; que incluyó: a) rastreo de caries y problemas odontológicos; b) coordinación interinstitucional; c) entrega de cepillos y pasta dental; d) intervención educativa; e) extensión comunitaria. Participaron en forma irregular 120 niñas, niños y adolescentes entre 5 y 18 años del Centro de Apoyo Escolar Fundación Bajo Boulogne. Se realizaron dos encuentros educativos y entrega de cepillos y pasta dental. En la revisión odontológica inicial sobre 60 participantes se detectaron caries en 43 (71,6%), que fueron derivados para tratamiento odontológico, pero concurrieron solo 26 (60,4%). El conocimiento sobre salud bucodental mostró cambios entre los más pequeños luego de las intervenciones educativas. Se logró implementar el programa, cumplimentando las actividades propuestas. Pero surgieron barreras que dificultaron la cobertura. En cuanto a la eficacia de la intervención educativa, no se logró mostrar cambios en el conocimiento. Se consiguió la detección oportuna, la incorporación de hábitos como el cepillado dentro de la institución educativa, la articulación para mejorar el acceso a la atención y la vinculación entre los diferentes actores comunitarios.

Oral disorders are a public health problem due to their high prevalence and their strong individual and collective impact in terms of pain, discomfort, and social and functional disability. The San Pantaleón Family and Community Medicine Center, located in the province of Buenos Aires, provides free healthcare to the community. A survey documented that 97% of those present had cavities and did not brush their teeth due to a lack of brush and toothpaste. It was decided to carry out an oral health promotion program. The objective was to evaluate its implementation; which included: a) tracking of caries and dental problems; b) inter-institutional coordination; c) delivery of brushes and toothpaste; d) educational intervention; e) community extension. 120 girls and boys and adolescents between 5 and 18 years of age from the Bajo Boulogne Foundation School Support Center irregularly participated. Two educational meetings were held, handing out brushes and toothpaste. In the initial dental review of 60 participants, caries was detected in 43 (71.6%), who were referred for dental treatment, with only 26 (60.4%) concurring. Oral health knowledge showed changes among the youngest after educational interventions. It was possible to implement the program, completing the proposed activities. Barriers arose that made coverage difficult. Regarding the effectiveness of the educational intervention, it was not possible to show changes in knowledge. Timely detection was achieved, the incorporation of habits such as brushing within the educational institution, articulation to improve access to care and the link between the different community actors.

OBJETIVOS: determinar la prevalencia de cobertura de rastreo de cáncer mamario con mamografía y de cuello uterino con Papanicolau en la población accesible de la zona de influencia del Centro de Salud San Pantaleón (San Isidro, Buenos Aires, Argentina) e identificar factores socioeconómicos y culturales asociados a su realización MÉTODOS: estudio de corte transversal con datos recolectados a través de una encuesta autoadministrada a una muestra de conveniencia de mujeres seleccionadas consecutivamente a medida que concurrían al centro entre 06/2009 y 06/2010. RESULTADOS: fueron entrevistadas 474 mujeres. La tasa de autoreporte de haber realizado Papanicolau entre los 19 y los 70 años fue 61,1%(IC95%56,4 a65,6) y la de haber realizado mamografía luego de los 50 años, 51,1% (43,7 a 58,4). En el análisis multivariable, la del primero se asoció independientemente a un mayor nivel educativo (OR 3,4; IC95%1,7 a 6,5), a haber tenido hijos (OR 2,6;1,4 a 4,9), a reconocer un médico de referencia (OR 2,12;1,35 a 3,3) y a ser menor de 50 años (OR 1,7;1,1 a 2,7); y la de la segunda, a un mayor nivel educativo (OR 1,2;0,4 a 3,1), a no estar empleada (OR 1,84;0,94 a 3,6) y a reconocer un médico de referencia (OR 2,63;1,22 a 5,88). CONCLUSIONES: las frecuencias de auto-reporte de rastreo de ambas patologías fueron coincidentes con las reportadas a nivel nacional y menores que las recomendadas como estándares internacionales.
OBJECTIVES: To determine the prevalence of coverage of breast cancer screening with mammography and cervical cancer with Papanicolau in the accessible population of the area of influence of the San Pantaleón Health Center (San Isidro, Buenos Aires, Argentina) and to identify socioeconomic and cultural factors. associated with its performance METHODS: cross-sectional study with data collected through a self-administered survey of a convenience sample of consecutively selected women as they attended the center between 06/2009 and 06/2010. RESULTS: 474 women were interviewed. The rate of self-report of having performed a Pap test between the ages of 19 and 70 was 61.1% (95% CI 56.4 to 65.6) and that of mammography after 50 years, 51.1% (43.7%). to 58.4). In the multivariate analysis, the former was independently associated with a higher educational level (OR 3.4, 95% CI 1.7 to 6.5), having had children (OR 2.6, 1.4 to 4.9). ), to recognize a reference physician (OR 2.12, 1.35 to 3.3) and to be younger than 50 years (OR 1.7, 1.1 to 2.7); and the second, to a higher educational level (OR 1.2, 0.4 to 3.1), not to be employed (OR 1.84, 0.94 to 3.6) and to recognize a reference doctor (OR 2.63, 1.22 to 5.88). CONCLUSIONS: the frequencies of self-reported tracking of both pathologies were coincident with those reported at the national level and lower than those recommended as international standards.
