Oral and Dental Health Approach in Children Treated with Asthma

Year 2026, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 41 - 47, 29.01.2026

Abstract

The increasing number of asthmatic children in our country and around the world is an important health problem. Beta 2-agonists used in the treatment of asthma can affect the oral and dental health of the child. Tooth decay and periodontal diseases can be seen commonly, especially in asthmatic children. Awareness should be created about the oral and dental problems that are ignored in asthmatic children and preventive dentistry programs should be expanded.
