Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the patients’ awareness of the relationship between oral and systemic health based on their oral hygiene habits and knowledge. Materials and Methods: A 21-item questionnaire was administered to 500 patients who had been referred to the İstanbul University Department of Restorative Dentistry. The questionnaire consisted of specific questions to evaluate the sociodemographic data and frequency of oral habits and to examine existing systemic diseases. The questionnaires were administered through interviews by the same dentist, and collected data were statistically evaluated using chi-square tests. Results: Of the 500 patients (aged 18-78 years), deficiencies in tooth brushing (70.6%) and diet (50.2%) were related to dental caries. The effects of inadequate tooth brushing on caries development were not significantly different when analyzed by patients’ gender and age groups (p>0.05), whereas significant results were observed in the educational status (p

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin ağız hijyeni alışkanlıklarına ve diş çürüğü gelişimine ilişkin bilgi düzeylerinin ölçülmesi ve genel sağlık-ağız ve diş sağlığı ilişkisi hakkındaki farkındalıklarının incelenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: İstanbul Üniversitesi Restoratif Diş Tedavisi Anabilim Dalı’na başvuran 500 hasta, 21 sorudan oluşan anketi cevaplamıştır. Tüm anketler bir diş hekimi tarafından röportaj şeklinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Anket, katılımcıların sosyodemografik değerlerini belirlemek, oral alışkanlıklarının sıklığını değerlendirmek ve mevcut sistemik hastalıklarını incelemek için ayrıntılı sorular içermiştir. Sonuçlar ki-kare testleri kullanılarak istatistiksel olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: 18-78 yaş arasındaki 500 hastaya göre, yetersiz diş fırçalama (%70,6) ve beslenme (%50,2) diş çürüğü gelişimi ile direkt ilişkilidir. Yetersiz diş fırçalamanın diş çürüğü gelişimine neden olacağını belirten bireyler, cinsiyet ve yaş grupları açısından anlamlı olarak farklılık göstermezken (p>0,05), eğitim durumları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık göstermiştir (p
