Year 2017, Volume: 8 Issue: 1, 11 - 15, 16.03.2017

Abstract

Aim: Poor oral hygenia
status affects nutrition and sleep in children and it is reported to have a
negative influence on growth and development. Therefore, similarly it may
negatively affect young athletes’ performance in sports activities. The aim of
this study is to evaluate the relationship between oral hygenia and athletic
performance in child athletes from the Sports Academy of Kırıkkale University.

 

Material and Methods: Decayed Missing Filled Teeth index (DMFT) scores were recorded for each
subject and sports performance tests were performed.

 

Results: The
agility (Tdrill, Zigzag, 505, LCDT) and short sprint (10m, 20m, 30m best) tests
conducted in this research showed that athletes whose DMFT values were over 3
were more successful than athletes whose DMFT values were equal or more than 3
(P < 0.01). Moreover, the results from Bosco test revealed that athletes
whose DMFT values less than 3 were significantly more successful (P < 0.01).
Also a correlation between DMFT values and results of the performance tests
were found.

 

Conclusion: These results highlight the importance of informing young athletes
regarding oral health.

Abstract

Amaç: Kötü ağız
hijyeninin çocuklarda beslenme ve uykuyu etkilediği ve büyüme-gelişim üzerinde
olumsuz etkileri olduğu bildirilmiştir. Bu durum çocuk sporcuların sportif
aktiviteler sırasındaki başarısını da olumsuz yönde etkileyebilir. Çalışmamızın
amacı Kırıkkale Üniversitesi Spor Akademisindeki çocuk hastaların atletik
performansları ile ağız sağlığı arasındaki bir ilişki olup olmadığının değerlendirlmesidir.



 

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmaya katılan tüm çocuklara ait “Decayed Missing Filled Teeth
index” (DMFT) skorları kaydedilmiş ve spor performans testleri uygulanmıştır. 


 

Bulgular: Uygulanan
çeviklik (Tdrill, Zigzag, 505, LCDT) ve “short sprint” (10m, 20m, 30m best)
testleri, DMFT değerleri 3’ten düşük olan sporcuların, DMFT değerleri 3 ve daha
yüksek olan sporculara göre istatistiksel olarak daha başarılı olduğunu
göstermiştir (P < 0,01). Bosco testi sonuçlarına göre de DMFT değeri 3’ten
daha az olan sporcuların istatistiksel olarak daha başarılı olduğunu
göstermiştir (P < 0,01). Ayrıca, DMFT skorları ve performans testi sonuçları
arasında korelasyon varlığı tespit edilmiştir.


 

Sonuçlar: Bu
sonuçlar çocuk sporcuların ağız sağlığı konusunda bilgilendirilmelerinin
önemini ortaya koymaktadır.
