Objective: To analyze the knowledge referring to health and oral sickness that the population of Nelson Mandela of Cartagena de Indias has, having in mind the social situation which they belong to.Materials and methods: Qualitative methodological focus, based on the hermeneutic method, applied on the population of Nelson Mandela. Ten families were selected belonging to social stratified level 1 and 2, corresponding to family nuclei with school children between ages 2 and 19 years. An individual survey was used to gather the information and a non participative observation on behalf of the people that were taking care of the children, selecting the most interesting interactions to fulfil the study objectives.Results: A transcendental point found in this population was the memorized mechanical knowledge in reference to tooth brushing techniques, where it is noticeable the influence of communication means, the traditional health promotion and prevention campaigns, which do not really allow to know the procedures that they apply. It is also important to remark that these inhabitants are heavily marked by emotional aspects, that can be confirmed by a general sadness in their conduct when associated with a sickness or pathological symptoms; connecting sickness with sadness.Conclusions: It is important to remark the importance of a direct interaction with the community where we can learn in depth all their social aspects and understand the situation in which they are. By this way, we can create new educational strategies on behalf of the future dentist, which could eventually lead to a diminishment of plaque indexes and a change of direction in their interest to maintain a good oral health. If they have the sufficient knowledge they can change their social level which can contribute to a better life quality. |
