ABSTRACT

Introduction. Oral pathologies are frequent in the elderly population, but the studies carried out so far come from populations other than Mexican; it is important to know the prevalence of oral pathologies in our population.
Material and Methods: We included 150 cadavers of individuals from 60 to 92 years old, 39% female, all of them admitted to the Forensic Medical Service of the Institute of Forensic Sciences of Mexico City. A qualitative analysis of soft tissue and hard tissue pathologies was performed, using odontometric indexes and histopathological study in cases of doubt. Statistical analysis of descriptive type was carried out.
Results: Of the population studied, the highest prevalence was found in alterations of the temporomandibular joint (26.14%) followed by frictional keratosis (10.68%), dentigerous cyst (10%), actinic cheilitis (8.64%) and nicotinic leukokeratosis (8.41%); We did not find differences by sex, subgroups of age and other sociodemographic factors.
Conclusion: The prevalence of oral pathologies in our pupulation is different from that reported in the international literature. It could be related to socioeconomic status, access to health services and hygiene conditions, although the design of our study can not determine this facts. Our results allow the design of preventive campaigns to reduce the associated morbidity and mortality.
