ABSTRACT

Introduction: Dentists must have specific knowledge for the care of patients with systemic conditions. During gestation, changes occur at the systemic and stomatognathic levels in the pregnant patient, therefore, if proper management is not provided, the health of the mother and / or the product could be affected. It is important to know the level of knowledge about dental care to pregnant patients in dental students to, if necessary, propose reforms in the study plans.
Objective: To evaluate the level of knowledge about dental care to pregnant patients in dental students from two Latin American universities.
Material and Methods: Analytical, descriptive and cross-sectional study, whose sample was made up of 103 students from the 7th to the 9th semester of the dental studies of the Scientific University of the South (UCSUR) in Peru and the Popular Autonomous University of the State of Puebla (UPAEP) in Mexico. The evaluation instrument was a questionnaire of 30 closed questions about myths and beliefs, adaptation of female physiology, oral pathology, use of medications and dental treatment during pregnancy. The possible results were classified as poor, regular and good.
Results: The results show that 44.66 % of the students presented a regular level of knowledge, while 28.16 % and 27.18 % obtained good and poor results, respectively. There was no significant difference between both institutions (p =0,458).
Conclusions: The level of knowledge about dental care to pregnant patients was predominantly regular in both universities.
