Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate dietary habits related to oral health status of Baskent University Faculty of Dentistry students. Subjects and Methods: A total of 71 students educating in Baskent University Faculty of Dentistry participated in the study. The students were asked to complete a questionnaire concerning their dietary habits, oral hygiene and smoking behaviours, also food diaries for three consecutive days were collected from all participants. Additionally, clinical oral examinations of all subjects were performed and DMFT scores were calculated. Means +/- standard deviations were calculated , Mann Whitney U and Chi-square/Fisher’s exact tests were used for statistical analysis of the data.(p0.05).Conclusions: Despite frequent sugar and snack intake, DMFT scores were found in acceptable ranges for young adults, which may be related to good oral hygiene behaviors.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı Başkent Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi öğrencilerinin beslenme alışkanlıklarının ağız-diş sağlığı düzeylerine etkisinin değerlendirilmesidir.Bireyler ve Yöntem: Araştırmaya Başkent Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’nde öğrenim görmekte olan toplam 71 öğrenci katılmıştır. Katılan bireylerden beslenme ve oral hijyen alışkanlıklarının değerlendirilmesi amacıyla hazırlanan soruları cevaplamaları ve 3 günlük diyet analiz formunu doldurmaları istenmiştir. Bununla birlikte öğrencilerin ağız-diş muayeneleri yapılarak, DMFT skorları hesaplanmıştır. Veriler ortalama +/- standart sapma olarak gösterilip, Mann Whitney U ve Ki- kare / Fisher’s exact testleri ile analiz edilmiştir(p0.05).Sonuç: Şekerli besinleri çok sık tüketmelerine rağmen çalışmaya katılan bireylerin ortalama DMFT skoru genç erişkinler için kabul edilebilir sınırlarda bulunmuştur. Elde edilen sonuçların iyi ağız hijyeni alışkanlıklarına bağlı olduğu düşünülmektedir.
