Abstract

This article pretends to be a guide for the visualization and valuation of the risk factors for the disgnatias; chronologically ordered and in relation to the
general development of the child. Due to the high prevalence of disgnatias in childhood, its late effects in adulthood and the little interest
shown in the prevention schemes, this guide can be useful for pediatrics, dentists, orthopedists to detect early and control de risk factors. The early control of the risk factors in disgnatias makes it possible to keep the patient in health, avoid the installation of an incipient disgnatia and/or minimize those which are more complex.
