espanolEl objetivo fue analizar la severidad de la condicion periodontal y la aparicion de microorganismos patogenos en la cavidad oral de una poblacion adulta de una comunidad afrodescente del noreste de Brasil. Este es un estudio observacional y transversal realizado a traves de un examen clinico oral, utilizando un registro clinico estandarizado. Para los sujetos con enfermedad periodontal, la biopelicula bacteriana se recogio en una placa de Petri que contenia una solucion fisiologica al 0,9% para detectar la presencia de microorganismos Entamoeba gingivalis y Trichomonas tenax, y luego se observo bajo un microscopio optico. El analisis estadistico se realizo calculando la prevalencia de la enfermedad periodontal y la frecuencia de los protozoos en la biopelicula bacteriana. La significacion estadistica de las relaciones investigadas se verifico mediante la prueba exacta de Fisher. Se evaluaron 29 sujetos pertenecientes a la comunidad Quilombola Patioba, de 35 a 44 anos. Los resultados mostraron que entre los adultos de la comunidad, hubo una alta prevalencia de enfermedad periodontal (75.86%), siendo mayor en el sexto sexto y sexto del Indice periodontal comunitario (IPC). La positividad de E. gingivalis se produjo en la mayoria de los sextantes afectados por gingivitis, mientras que en la condicion de periodontitis, este microorganismo no estaba presente en los sextantes tercero, cuarto y sexto. En todos los sextantes afectados por enfermedad periodontal, se observo T. Tenax cuando se asocio con gingivitis. Vale la pena mencionar el inicio de la elaboracion de politicas de salud, compromiso social y profesional que promuevan una mayor promocion de la salud oral y la calidad de vida de las quilombolas del noreste de Brasil. EnglishThe objective was to analyze the periodontal condition severity and the occurrence of pathogenic microorganisms in the oral cavity of an adult population of an Afrodescent Community of northeastern Brazil. This is an observational and cross-sectional study performed through an oral clinical examination, using a standardized clinical record. For the subjects with periodontal disease, the bacterial biofilm was collected in a Petri dish containing 0.9% physiological solution to detect the presence of microorganisms Entamoeba gingivalis and Trichomonas tenax, and later observed under an optical microscope. Statistical analysis was performed by calculating the prevalence of periodontal disease and the frequency of the protozoa in the bacterial biofilm. Statistical significance of the relationships researched was verified by Fisher's exact test. It was evaluated 29 subjects pertaining to the Quilombola Patioba community, aged 35 to 44 years. The results showed that among the adults of the community, there was a high prevalence of periodontal disease (75.86%), being higher in the 1st and 6th sextants of the Community Periodontal Index (CPI). E. gingivalis positivity occurred in most sextants affected by gingivitis, while in the condition of periodontitis, this microorganism was not present in the 3rd, 4th and 6th sextants. In all sextants affected by periodontal disease, T. Tenax was observed when associated with gingivitis. It is worth mentioning the begging of the elaboration of health policies, social and professional commitment that foster a greater promotion of oral health and quality of life for the quilombolas of northeastern Brazil.
