RESUMEN
Objetivo. Determinar la destreza manual del agarre del cepillo dental para la remoción de placa dental en personas con habilidades diferentes según edad, sexo. Material y métodos. La muestra estuvo comprendida de 28 estudiantes que asistían al centro Ann Sullivan del Perú-CASP (16 con autismo y 12 con síndrome de Down) entre 11 a 26 años de edad. Se determinó el índice de placa de Silness y Lõe (IIP) antes y después del cepillado.Los datos fueron analizados usando el CHI cuadrado y la Prueba Exacta de Fisher, para encontrar la diferencia de promedios de IIP antes y después del cepillado dental, tiempo en segundos y la técnica usada, se utilizó la prueba 't' previo Prueba de Normalidad K-S y Shapiro-Wilk. Resultados. Este estudio evidencia que la destreza manual del agarre del cepillo dental en pacientes con autismo fue distal oblicuo y mixto (más de un tipo de agarre) y en pacientes con síndrome de Down sólo mixto (más de un tipo de agarre). Conclusiones. La preferencia del agarre del cepillo dental en escolares con autismo fue distal oblicuo y mixto (más de un tipo de agarre) y en escolares con síndrome de Down sólo mixto (más de un tipo de agarre).
ABSTRACT
Objective. To determine the manual skill of the toothbrushing grips for dental plaque removal in people with different skills according to age, sex. Material and methods. The study sample consisted of 28 students who attended 'Centro Ann Sullivan del Perú' (16 with autism and 12 with Down's syndrome) between 11 to 26 years old. We determined an initial Silness & Lõe Plaque Index (PI), then we recorded the grip type with a video camera and after that we determined a final PI after tooth brushing. Subsequently, the grip type, laterality, time and tooth brushing technique employed were noted. The data were analyzed using the Chi square and Fisher's Exact Test and to find the PI average difference before and after tooth brushing, time in seconds and tooth brushing techniques was used T-test after Normality test (K-S and Shapiro-Wilk). Results. This study shows that manual dexterity grip of the toothbrush in students with autism was distal oblique and mixed (more than one type of grip) and in students with Down syndrome only mixed (more than one type of grip). Conclusions. Toothbrush grip preference in students with autism was distal oblique and mixed (more than one type of grip) and in students with Down syndrome only mixed (more than one type of grip).
