AB  - This study aimed to examine the relationship between dietary acid load and oral health-related quality of life in adolescents. A total of 374 adolescents participated by completing a demographic questionnaire and the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) scale. Additionally, 24-hour recall food consumption records were gathered. The dietary acid load (DAL) was evaluated through the calculation of net endogenous acid production (NEAP) and potential renal acid load (PRAL). Data analysis was conducted using the SPSS 24 software package. Students who regularly visited the dentist had higher OHIP-14, NEAP, and PRAL values than those who did not (p

N2  - Bu çalışmada, adolesanlarda diyet asit yükü ile ağız sağlığı ile ilişkili yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Toplam 374 adolesana, demografik yapı anketi ve Ağız Sağlığı Etki Profili-14 (OHIP-14) ölçeği uygulanmıştır ve 24 saatlik geriye dönük besin tüketim kayıtları toplandı. Diyet asit yükü (DAL), potansiyel böbrek asit yükü (PRAL) ve net endojen asit üretimi (NEAP) hesaplanarak değerlendirilmiştir. Veri analizi SPSS 24 yazılım paketi kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Düzenli olarak diş hekimine giden öğrencilerin OHIP-14, NEAP ve PRAL değerleri gitmeyenlere göre daha yüksek saptanmıştır (p
