ABSTRACT

A descriptive, observational, longitudinal and retrospective study, from all the patients notified in the statistical records of extreme poverty communities and from the new urbanizations of the state Carabobo was carried out during the first semester of 2016, with the objective of describing the activities developed in them, according to the following variables: estomatological visits, health promotion activities, other estomatological activities and referral at the second care level. Among the results it was obtained that the highest percentage of visits was carried out in the first trimester of the year, with prevalence of the visits-agreements, as well as of the health promotion activities. The age group younger than 18 years had the greatest benefits with the delivered affective-participative activities, while the estomatological procedures also prevailed in the first trimester, except the use of fluorine, and the periodontal disease was the most frequent cause of referral to the second care level.
