| description | Aim:Oral diseases can affect various aspects of life in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the oral health conditions, oral health behaviors, and the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of children with ADHD.Materials and Methods:A sample of 76 children with ADHD who were treatment naive was compared to 71 healthy children, with ages ranging from 6 to 13 years. Through an intraoral clinical examination, the numbers of decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT, dmft index), the plaque index, the gingival index, occlusion status, overjet, overbite and parafunctional oral habits were determined. The children’s parents completed the Turkish version of early childhood oral health impact scale (T-ECOHIS) and questionnaires regarding oral health behaviors and dental care.Results:The child impact score (CIS) of the T-ECOHIS were significantly higher among those children with ADHD compared to the control group patients (16 versus 12), consistent with poorer OHRQoL. The children with ADHD also had more dental trauma in both dentitions and more frequent nail-biting habits compared to the participants in the control group.Conclusion:In our study, T ECOHIS-CIS scores showed that those children with ADHD were affected more when compared to those children without ADHD in terms of oral health problems. |
