Öz

Amaç:
Sporla ilgilenen bireylere, dental yaralanmalardan korunabilmek için ağız
koruyucular önerilmektedir. Ancak, geçmişte dental yaralanmaya maruz kalan
sporcuların büyük çoğunluğunun, sportif aktiviteler sırasında ağız koruyucu
kullanmamaya devam ettiği rapor edilmiştir. Bu
çalışmada, spor lisesi öğrencilerinin, beden eğitimi öğretmenlerinin ve diş
hekimlerinin ağız koruyucular hakkındaki görüşlerinin değerlendirilerek, ağız
koruyucu kullanımını etkileyen faktörlerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Gereç
ve Yöntem: Çalışma, 3 gruplu anket çalışması
olarak planlanmıştır. Birinci grupta, spor liselerinde eğitim ve öğrenim gören
14-17 yaş aralığında toplam 446 öğrenci; ikinci grupta, 58 beden eğitimi
öğretmeni ve üçüncü grupta 506 diş hekimi yer almaktadır.  Hazırlanan anketler ile geçmişte yaşadıkları
spor ile ilişkili dental travma deneyimleri, acil durum prosedürleri hakkındaki
bilgileri, ağız koruyucu kullanımı ve ağız koruyucu tercihleri
değerlendirilmiştir.

Bulgular:
Çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin yarısının (%49,9) yaralanma hikayesi olmasına
rağmen çok az bir kısmının (%6) ağız koruyucu kullandığı belirlenmiştir. Beden
eğitimi öğretmenlerinin %77,6’sının ağız koruyuculardan haberdar olduğu ve
%96,6’sının ağız koruyucu kullanımını yararlı bulduğu görülmüştür.
Öğretmenlerin %87,9’u, diş hekimlerinin %67,8’i zorunlu olan spor dallarının
yanı sıra diğer spor dallarında da kullanımın zorunlu olması gerektiği
düşüncesindedir. Diş hekimlerinin %50,6’sının sporla ilgilenen hastalarına ağız
koruyucu önerdiği tespit edilmiştir.

Sonuç:
Sonuç olarak, sporcuların dental yaralanmalardan daha az zarar görmeleri için
ağız koruyucu kullanım oranının arttırılması ve diş hekimlerinin, beden eğitimi
öğretmenlerinin, öğrencilerin ve velilerin konu hakkında daha fazla
eğitilmeleri gerekmektedir.

SPORTS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’, PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHERS’ AND DENTISTS’
OPINION ABOUT MOUTHGUARDS

ABSTRACT

Aim:
Mouthguards are suggested for sports-interested individuals to protect against
dental injuries. Even so, it has been reported that the majority of the
athletes who experienced dental injury in the past, continue to perform
sportive activities without using mouthguards. The aim of this study is; to
determine the opinions of sports
high school students, physical education teachers and dentists about
mouthguards, to evaluate the factors
influencing the use of mouthguards. 

Material and
Methods: The study was planned as a 3-group survey
study. There
were 446 sports high school
students aged between
14-17 years in the first group, 58 physical education teachers in the second
group and 506 dentists in the third group. The questionnaires were used to
assess past experience of dental trauma related to sports, knowledge of related
emergency procedures, use of mouthguard and mouthguard preferences.

Results: Although half of the students who participated the study have a story
of trauma (49,9%), it has been determined that only a small percentage of
students (6%) use mouthguards. 77.6% of physical education teachers were aware
of mouthguards and 96.6% of them found beneficial mouthguard use. About 88% of
teachers and 67.8% of dentists thought that it must be compulsory use in sports
that are mandatory for as well as other sports. 50.6% of dentists suggest a
mouthguard the patients interested in sports has been determined.

Conclusion: As a result, to
protect the athletes from dental trauma, mouthguard usage rates should be
increased and the dentists, physical education teachers, students and the
parents need to be educated more about this subject.
