Riesgo Educación en odontología Vacunas risks dental education vaccines Exposure to biological hazards is common in dental practice, and it is a globally morbidity and mortality problem. The purpose of this research was to investigate what knowledge students of the have, on such risks, how to prevent and how to proceed before an accident. A total of 192 students of the last year of the Faculty of Dentistry (UNC) were surveyed. 95% said know the risks associated with infectious diseases, but generally do not know which they are. With regard to the provision of prophylaxis, in some cases the responses were incorrect. 94% claimed to know the procedures before an accident, but answers were vague and lack of knowledge about the protocols to follow. From this study it appears that most students do not perceive the link between disease risk and not fully aware of the protocols related to exposure to biological material and immunization, or what to do with accidents in clinical practice En la práctica odontológica hay exposición a riesgos biológicos. En este trabajo indagamos: qué conocimientos sobre dichos riesgos tienen los alumnos, pues representan una problemática de morbi-mortalidad a nivel mundial, nacional y local; y si saben cómo prevenirlos y cómo proceder ante un accidente. Se encuestaron 192 estudiantes del último año de la Facultad de Odontología (UNC). El 95% afirmó conocer los riesgos vinculados con enfermedades infectocontagiosas, pero en general no conocen cuáles son. Con respecto a la profilaxis de disposición, las respuestas fueron incorrectas. El 94 % afirmó conocer los procedimientos ante un accidente de trabajo, pero hubo respuestas imprecisas y desconocimiento sobre los protocolos a seguir. De este estudio inferimos que la mayoría de los alumnos no percibe la vinculación entre riesgo- enfermedad, no conoce totalmente los protocolos relacionados a exposición con material biológico e inmunización , ni la conducta a seguir ante accidentes de trabajo en la práctica clínica.
