To display the profile
of oral and dental health of Turkish athletes preparing for Rio 2016 Paralympic
Games and to take measures to improve preventive dentistry services. n=17 (24
%) visually impaired athletes of judo, athletics and goalball (men) brances;
n=43 (60.5 %) athletes with physical disabilities of coarchery, basketball,
swimming, tennis, table tennis branches and 
n=11 (% 15,5) athletes with hearing impaired taekwondo branches
preparing for Rio 2016 Paralympic Games participated in our study. The
evaluations of athletes’ decay (D), missing (M), filled (F) teeth (DMF-T) index
and of community periodontal treatment need index (CPITN) have been made
according to the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. In statistical
evaluation realized through paired-samples t-test statistical analysis method,
there was a statistically significance between the athletes’ D, M and F
numerical values and the age (p<0.05). In comparison of gender and dental
disease, D, M and F numerical values were statistically significant for both
genders (p<0.05); the relation between gender and periodontal tissue disease
was found statistically significant (p<0.05). Dental and periodontal disease
rates of disabled athletes were above the WHO’s 2020 target values. However, it
was seen that the athletes' group had been actively involved in tooth treatment
rather than tooth loss. In order to increase the provision of preventive
dentistry, disabled athletes should have oral and dental health check twice a
year and education on the impact of oral-teeth health on the health of athletes
should be organized.

Türkiye Paralimpik Takımlar Ağız-Diş Sağlığı Profili

Rio 2016 Paralimpik
Oyunlarına hazırlanan Türk sporcularının ağız-diş sağlığı profilini göstermek
ve koruyucu diş hekimliği hizmetlerini arttırmaya yönelik önlemler almaktır.
Çalışmamıza Rio 2016 Paralimpik Oyunlarına hazırlanan judo, atletizm ve erkek
golball branşlarından oluşan görme engelli n=17 (% 24) sporcu; okçuluk,
basketbol, yüzme, tenis, masa tenisi branşlarından oluşan bedensel engelli n=43
(% 60,5) sporcu ve işitme engelli tekvando branşından n=11 (% 15,5) sporcu
katıldı. Sporcuların çürük (D), kayıp (M), 
restore diş (F) indeksi (DMF-T) ve toplumda periodontal tedavi
gereksinim indeksi (CPITN) değerlendirmeleri, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ)
kriterlerine göre yapıldı. Sporcuların sahip oldukları çürük, kayıp ve restore
diş sayısal değerleri ile yaş Paired-Samples T Testi istatiksel analiz yöntemi
ile istatiksel olarak değerlendirildiğinde; D, M ve F sayısal değeri ile yaş
arasında, istatiksel olarak anlamlılık görüldü (p<0.05). Cinsiyet ile diş
hastalığı karşılaştırıldığında, D, M ve F sayısal değerleri her iki cinsiyette
istatiksel olarak anlamlıydı (p<0.05); cinsiyet ve periodontal doku
hastalığı arasındaki ilişkide her iki cinsiyette istatiksel olarak anlamlı
bulundu (p<0,05). Engelli sporcuların sahip oldukları diş ve dişeti hastalık
oranları DSÖ 2020 hedef değerlerinin üzerindeydi. Buna rağmen sporcu grubunun
diş kaybından daha çok dişin tedavisine yönelik eylemlerde bulunduğu görüldü.
Koruyucu diş hekimliği hizmetini arttırmak için engelli sporculara yılda iki
kez ağız-diş sağlığı kontrolü yapılmalı ve ağız-diş sağlığının sporcu sağlığı
üzerine etkileri hakkında eğitimler düzenlenmelidir.
