We conducted a qualitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and transversal study to assess the prevalence of malocclusions in children aged 6 to 12 years of the school Máximo san Román de of the Calca province of Cusco. We assessed the presence of maloclusions using Angle’s classification and different anatomical variants. We evaluated 214 individuals, 106 (50.9%) were women, most of them (49.1%) had between 6 and 12 years. The prevalence of malocclusions was 88.8%, the most prevalent according to Angle’s classification was class I (37.9%). Orthodontic alterations were present in 67.2% of cases. The most frequent were excessive overbite (49.1%), exaggerated overjet (42.5%). We found a high prevalence of malocclusion and orthodontic changes in t the evaluated province, highlighting the need to implement preventive programs to improve the oral health of these negleted populations.
