Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of oral habits and dentoalveolar alterations among 6- to-12-year-old children treated at the Teaching Private Hospital. Material and methods: It is a descriptive, observational, cross- sectional and retrospective study with a sample size of 1,006 medical records of 6- to-12-year-old children treated at UPC teaching Clinic were reviewed of medical records of children 6 to 12 years, children and male and female medical records that were authorized by specialists of Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics area was included. Medical records of children without DNI and children with special needs were excluded. Results: It was found a predisposition towards an atypical swallowing habit (19,48%); digit sucking (2,19%); and mouth breathing (0,20%). The prevalence of dentoalveolar alterations was: anterior crossbite (8.65%), and posterior crossbite (5,27%); anterior open bite (9,74%) and posterior open bite (0.89%); Angle´s Class I (57,95%), Class II (18.98%) and class III (10,64%) right molar relationship; Angle´s Class I (55.86%), Class II (18.39%) and Class III (14.61%) left molar relationship; right mesial step (6.66%), flush step (0.89%) and distal step (0.40%); left mesial step (6.16%), flush step (0.99%) and distal step (0.70%); overjet of 1mm to 4mm (70.78%), greater than 4mm (11.93%) and less than 4mm (6.26%); overbite of 10% to 40% (45.03%), greater than 40% (16.60%) and less than 10% (11.43%). No association was found between age and gender and the oral habits. An association was found between age and left and right molar relationship in terms of Angle´s classes, overjet and overbite (p=0.001); whereas no statistically significant association was found with gender and dentoalveolar alterations. Conclusions: The study concluded that the most prevalent oral habit was atypical swallowing and dentoalveolar alteration of anterior open bite.
