Abstract

The benefits of breastfeeding in the prevention of malocclusion have been described in dental literature, noting that exclusively breastfeeding over 6 months reduced its prevalence. Objetive: To determine the relationship between breastfeeding and malocclusions. Materials and methods: We examined a sample of 59 children aged between 6 and 13 years in the parish Higuerote, Miranda, Venezuela. A questionnaire was applied to each tutor to obtain data on the breastfeeding period received by the child and was made an oral examination and orthodontic variables was observed in each child. We performed an analysis model of significance p <0.05, by Fisher test through the Univariate Analysis of Variance to reveal whether there were significant differences between maternal breastfeeding and the variables: permanent molar relationship, anterior open bite and posterior crossbite. Also applied the nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test in cases where the sample was less than 30 observations. Results: A statistically significant relationship exists between a breastfeeding less than 6 months and Angle Class II molar relation and anterior open bite, but for posterior crossbite was not found statistically significant. Statistically significant relationship was found between maternal breastfeeding over 6 months with Angle Class I molar relation. Conclusion: it is suggested that a period of breastfeeding over 6 months is related to the absence of malocclusion in the study group.
