Resumen
Objetivo: determinar la prevalencia de patologías orales en adultos y sus condiciones asociadas.Materiales y métodos: se realizó un estudio de prevalencia en una muestra de 100 adultos. En el análisis univariado se determinaron las medidas de resumen y dispersión para todos los datos. El análisis bivariado incluyó la t de Student y la prueba Chi2. Se consideró un valor de p ≤ 0,05.Resultados: del total de los adultos examinados, el 67% (67) presentaba lesiones blancas, los Gránulos de Fordyce fueron los más frecuentes con 76,1% (76) seguido de hiperqueratosis friccional con un 7%. Las lesiones rojas estuvieron presentes en el 79% (79) de los examinados y las más frecuentes fueron las várices linguales (58.2%) (46), la mucositis protésica (48%) (38) y las petequias (10,1%) (8). El 32% (32) de las personas presentaron lesiones pigmentadas, la más frecuente fue la pigmentación fisiológica (71,8%) (23).Conclusiones: las lesiones orales más frecuentes son variaciones de la normalidad como Gránulos de Fordyce, várices y pigmentaciones fisiológicas propias del proceso de envejecimiento. Entre las verdaderas patologías, la más frecuente fue la mucositis subprotésica. Sólo se encontró asociación entre los factores estudiados como necesidad de cambio de prótesis y úlceras.[Aránzazu GC, Fernández AM, Martínez SJ, Sanín LM.

Objective: to establish the most prevalent oral diseases and associated conditions in adults.Methods: a descriptive observational study was done in a sample of 100 adults. Means, modes, medians and standard deviations were determined for all data. Bivariate analyses were performed by Student›s t test and Chi2 test. For all tests, p≤0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: of the total adults surveyed, 67% (67) showed white lesions, Fordyce Granules were the most frequent lesion and it was presented in 76,1% (76) of the adults, followed by frictional hyperkeratosis with 7%. The red lesions presented were seen in 79% (79) of those who were tested and lingual varices were the most frequent ones 58,2% (46), denture mucositis 48% (38) and petechiae 10,1% (8). Pigmented lesions were present in 32% (32) of the people, physiological pigmentation was the most frequent one with 71,8% (23).Conclusions: the most common oral lesions are variations of the normal oral condition as Fordyce Granules, varicose veins and physiological pigmentation characteristic of aging. Among true pathologies, the most frequent was subprosthetic mucositis. An association was found between the need to change the prosthesis and presence of ulcers.
