Introduction: A high rate of malocclusion and caries injuries is observed in children and adolescents, however the interaction between both still causes divergences in the scientific world. Objective: To investigate the possible association between malocclusion and oral health condition. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional and retrospective study was carried out based on the evaluation of medical records of patients aged 8 to 16 attended at the Dental Clinics of the State University of Rio Grande do Norte - Brazil, between the years 2013 to 2019between the years 2013 to 2019. The sample consisted of 135 patient records divided into 4 distinct groups: patients with Class I malocclusion (Group 1), Class II malocclusion (Group 2), Class III malocclusion (Group 3) and patients with normal occlusion (Group 4). To assess the oral health condition, information was collected on the DMFT and its components and for the identification of malocclusion, the anteroposterior relationship of the first permanent molars was used. To check the possible associations between the DMFT and the type of malocclusion, the Chi-square test was used, as well as the one-way ANOVA to compare the caries experience between the groups, with a significance of 5%. Results: There was no greater experience of caries within each group, just as there was no difference between groups for oral health condition. Conclusion: The oral health condition assessed by the caries experience is not associated with the presence or absence of malocclusion when the anteroposterior molar relationship is assessed.
