Abstract
ESCANAVERINO OLIVA, Magaly; BERMUDEZ ALEMAN, Reina and FUMERO MANZANO, Maikel. Predictive factors in the occurrence of subprosthesis stomatitis. Medicentro Electrónica [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.3, pp. 662-666. Epub July 01, 2020. ISSN 1029-3043.
Subprosthesis stomatitis is one of the most frequent lesions found in a dental consultation. It is a commonly asymptomatic disease, whose origin is multifactorial, and has a high prevalence in patients with removable prostheses. Predicting its appearance would be very timely as it would allow reaching economic benefits and benefits for individual's health. Therefore, it is important to develop a predictive model of the risk of suffering from subprosthesis stomatitis. This study was carried out on patients who came to the prosthesis consultation at "Victoria de Santa Clara" Dental Clinic. It was characterized by the elaboration of a predictive model of the disease. Poor oral hygiene and poor quality of the prosthesis were the main predictive factors of the disease. A logistic equation was made and a predictive model was obtained in order to know the patients with more probabilities of suffering from this disease.
