Objective: To design, execute and assess the effectiveness of a preventive program in oral health to control the risk factors for dental decay and periodontal disease in the pregnant women who were affiliated to an “EPS” in Bucaramanga.
Material and methods: Forty pregnant who were in the second and third trimester of pregnancy were divided in experimental (20) and control (20) group. It was provided a questionnaire about the beliefs and practices oral health to both groups. Later, the periodontal index, dental state and oral hygiene index as well as the necessities of treatment were evaluated through a clinical examination before and after a preventive program. The experimental group received mechanical therapy, oral hygiene kits, a conference and a video. The group control received the educative strategy developed by the EPS. In order to compare according by intervention X 2 and Fisher´s exact test were applied by the qualitative variables and t of student or Wilcoxon´s rank test were used by the quantitative variables.
Results: The significant statistically were seen between intervention and control groups only them of intervention by the beliefs (p<0.0001) and healthful practice index (p=0.001); by both index were seen well in the intervention group. In the same way, ICPTN index was shown associated statistical (p<0.001). By ICP index statistical association were seen before and after of intervention.
Conclusion: The evidence seems to demonstrate that this type of programs are efficient and the EPS could implement this action without greater investment and guarantee the benefit of an integral service that adjusts to the necessities of this population.
