Ağız koruyucusu kullanımı ile yaşanabilecektravmanın etkilerinin en aza indirildiği bilinmektedir.&amp;nbsp; Bu çalışmanın amacı, diş hekimlerinin spordiş hekimliği ve dental travmalar ile ilgili bilgi düzeylerinin ölçülmesi,davranış ve tutumlarının belirlenmesidirGereç ve yöntem: 23 sorudan oluşan tanımlayıcı nitelikteki anket İstanbulilinde kamu kuruluşunda veya özel sektörde çalışan diş hekimlerine basılı veyainternet üzerinden ulaştırıldı. Anketi yanıtlayan 346 diş hekimi çalışmayadahil edildi ve elde edilen yanıtlar kaydedildi. &amp;nbsp;Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde; ki-Kareanalizi, Fisher Exact testi ve parametrik olmayan Sperman korelasyon değerlerikullanıldı. Sonuçlar p&amp;lt;0,05 düzeyinde değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan hekimlerin %94,80’ünün spor aktivitelerisırasında ağız koruyucusu kullanımının travma karşısında koruyucu olduğunudüşündüğü belirlenmiştir. Ancak hekimlerin sadece klinikte %13,8’i hastalarınaağız koruyucusu uygulaması yapmaktadır. Hekimlerin ağız koruyucusu uygulamamanedenleri; %38,15’i herhangi bir eğitim almadığı için, %5,78’i hastalartarafından yüksek maliyetli bulunduğu için, %3,76’sı diş hekimliği alanınagirdiğini düşünmediği için, %42,77’si diğer sebepler olarak belirlenmiştir.Hekimlerin %62,43’ü ağız koruyucu uygulaması konusunda eğitim almamış iken; %29,48’üyalnızca teorik, %8,09’u hem teorik hem pratik eğitim almışlardır. Konuhakkında eğitim almayan hekimlerin %84,1’i eğitim almak istediklerinibelirtmiştir.Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre, İstanbul ilinde çalışan dişhekimleri ağız koruyucusu kullanımının spor travmalarında etkili bir koruyucuuygulama olduğunu düşünmektedirler; ancak ağız koruyucusu uygulaması yapan dişhekimlerinin sayısı bu orana göre beklenildiği kadar yüksek bulunmamıştır.Anahtarkelimeler: Spor diş hekimliği, travma,ağız koruyucuEVALUATION OF KNOWLEDGE OFDENTISTS ABOUT TRAUMA AND PREVENTIVE METHODS IN SPORTS DENTISTRYAim: Sports activities and competitions increases the potential for possible dental trauma. It is known that the effects of trauma can be minimized with the use of mouthguards&amp;nbsp;. The aim of this study is to evaluate the level of knowledge and behavior of dentists on sports dentistry and dental trauma.Material and Methods: In this study, the descriptive questionnaire including 23 questions was delivered via printed or internet to the dentists working in public or private clinics in Istanbul. 346 respondents who returned the completed data forms were included in the study. For statistical analysis, Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test were used, and Sperman correlation​​ were used for nonparametric tests. P value was set as 0.05. Results: It was determined that 94.80% of dentistsparticipating in the study believed that the use of mouthguards during sportsactivities was protective against trauma. However, only 13.8% of dentistsrecommended their patients to wear mouthguard. The reasons why doctors do notapply mouthguards; 38.15% did not have any education, 5.77% was found to becostly by patients, and 42.77% was stated other causes, because 3.76% did notthink it was belong to dentistry field. 62.43% of the dentists did not haveeducation on mouthguard application; 29,48% had only theoretical education,8,09% had both theoretical education and hands-on. 84.1% of dentists who didnot have education on the subject stated that they wanted to have furthereducation.Conclusion: As a result, this study shows that using mouthgards during sports activities is considered as an effective protective method by dentists in Istanbul. However, the percentage of dentists who apply mouthgards is not as&amp;nbsp;high as expected.Keywords: sports dentistry, trauma, mouthgard</p></abstract>
