Determinação da aquisição do grupo Streptococcus mutans em um grupo de crianças uruguaias até 36 meses de idade.: Estudo piloto. (2020). Odontoestomatología, 22(35), 62-71. https://doi.org/10.22592/ode2020n35a8
Resumo
Objetivos: Identificar o momento de aquisição
e colonização do SGM em uma população
de crianças uruguaias e relacioná-lo
com fatores da criança e da mãe. Estabeleça
o tempo necessário para coletar a amostra e
estudar sua perda.
Método: Estudo observacional, longitudinal
prospectivo, de 83 pares mãe-filho da
uma policlínica de Montevidéu. Dos 83 pares
examinados, 20 completaram o estudo.
Foram incluídas crianças de 0-9 meses com
/ sem dentes e primeira amostra salivar negativa
para SGM.
Resultados: Idade média de aquisição do
SGM 16,4 meses (± 4,13) e colonização
18,6 meses (± 3,80) de idade. A perda estabelecida
da amostra foi 71,42%.
Conclusões: A colonização foi semelhante
aos de Florio (Brasil), observando diferenças
