Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the patients’ knowledge about dental implants and implant awareness of the patients. Materials and Method: Five hundred patients referred to Necmettin Erbakan University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Prosthodontics for rehabilitation of missing teeth. The patients were informed about the aim and method of the study. Questionnaire including 15 questions about dental implant were filled by the patients. Desriciptive statistics and chi square test were performed for statistically assesment. Results: 257 male and 243 female were included in this study. The rate of patients’ implant awareness was 70.4% in five hundreds patients. A significant difference was found awareness and educational status. (p<0.001) There was no significant relationship between implant awareness and gender (p=0.233), income status (p=0.084), age (p=0.303). The information sources of the implants were from the dentist (32.60%), media (26%) and friends who have implant treatment (26.60%) and medical doctor (14.80%), respectively, however 88.40% of the patients stated that they wanted to learn about the dental implant knowledge from the dentist. 79% of the patients stated that they want to have implant treatments at university hospital. While 39.40% of the patients wanted implant treatment, 13.20% did not want implant treatment and 47.40% reported that they were undecided. Conclusion: The dentists should give more information to the patients about dental implant. Training programs should be organized for the patients.

Özet

Giriş: Bu çalışmanın amacı; hastaların dental implant hakkında bilgilerini ve implant farkındalıklarını değerlendirmektir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Ağız, Diş ve Çene Cerrahisi ve Protez bölümlerine eksik dişlerinin rehabilitasyonu için başvuran 500 hasta çalışmaya dâhil edildi. Hastalara çalışmanın amacı ve metodu ile ilgili bilgi verildi. Dental implant ile ilgili 15 sorudan oluşan anket hastalar tarafından dolduruldu. Veriler toplandı. Elde edilen sonuçların istatistiksel değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistik ve ki-kare testi uygulandı,Bulgular: 257 erkek ve 243 kadın hasta bu çalışmaya dâhil edildi. 500 hastada implant farkındalığı %70,4’tü. İmplant farkındalığı ile eğitim durumu arasında anlamlı bir fark bulundu. (p<0,001) İmplant farkındalığı ile cinsiyet (p=0,233), gelir durumu (p=0,084) ve yaş (p= 0,303) arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadı. İmplantların bilgi kaynaklarının sırası ile diş hekiminden (%32,60), implant yaptıran arkadaşlarından (%26,60), medyadan (%26) ve tıp doktorundan (%14,80) öğrenildiği tespit edildi ama hastaların %88,40’ı dental implant ile ilgili bilgileri diş hekiminden öğrenmek istediğini belirttiler. Hastaların %79’u (395) implant tedavilerini üniversite hastanesinde yaptırmak istediklerini ifade etmişlerdir. Hastaların %39,40’ı implant tedavisini isterken %13,20’si implant tedavisini istemediğini ve %47.40’ı ise kararsız olduğunu bildirdi.Sonuç: İmplant farkındalığını arttırmak için diş hekimleri hastalara dental implant ile ilgili daha fazla bilgi vermelidir. Hastalar için eğitim programları organize edilmelidir.
