Diş Çürüğü Deneyimi ile Ergenler ve Anneler arasındaki Tutarlılık Duygusu İlişkisinin Saptanması

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada diş çürüğü deneyimi ile ergen bireyler ve anneler arasındaki tutarlılık duygusu (SOC) ilişkisinin saptanması ve tutarlılık duygusunun bireylerin oral hijyenleri üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma 11-14 yaş grubu arasındaki sağlıklı 100 ergen birey ve anneleri dahil edilerek oral klinik muayeneleri DMFT indeksi ve Silness - Löe plak indeksi kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Demografik verilerden kardeş sayısı, anne eğitim durumu, baba eğitim durumu ve aile geliri değerlendirilmiştir. Tutarlılık duygusu, tutarlılık duygu skalasının 13 sorudan oluşan Türkçe’ye uyarlanmış kısa anket versiyonu kullanılarak uygulanmıştır. Yanıtlar, her soru için 7’li Likert ölçeği ile değerlendirilmiştir. Tutarlılık duygusu ile DMFT, plak indeksi, demografik veriler arasındaki ilişki istatistiksel olarak Spearman Korelasyon Analizi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Çocukların SOC değeriyle annelerin SOC değeri arasında orta düzeyde anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur. Kardeş sayısı ve aile geliriyle çocukların SOC ve annelerin SOC değerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki yoktur. Anne eğitim durumlarıyla çocukların SOC değeri arasında zayıf düzeyde anlamlı ilişki bulunurken, anne eğitim durumlarıyla annelerin SOC değeri arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmamıştır. Çocukların DMFT değerleriyle çocukların SOC ve annelerin SOC değerleri arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmazken çocukların DMFT değerleriyle çocuk plak indeksi arasında ise zayıf düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki mevcuttur. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak anneyle ergen bireylerin tutarlılık duyguları arasında ilişki gözlenirken, diş çürüğü ve tutarlılık duygusu arasında ilişki bulunamamıştır.

Association between Dental Caries Experience and Sense of Coherence among Adolescents and Mothers

Öz

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate relationship between caries experience and sense of coherence (SOC) among adolescent and their mothers and to investigate effects of SOC on oral hygiene of individuals and their experience of caries. Material and Methods: In this study, 100 healthy adolescents aged 11-14 years and their mothers were evaluated and oral clinical examinations were performed using DMFT index and Silness - Lee plaque index. The number of siblings, parents’ educational level, and family income were recorded as a demographic data. Sense of coherence was implemented using a short questionnaire version adapted to Turkish, consisting of 13 questions of the coherence emotion scale. The answers were evaluated with a 7-point Likert scale for each question. The correlation between SOC and DMFT, plaque index and demographic data were evaluated statistically using Spearman Correlation Analysis (p<0.05) Results: There was a significant relationship between SOC of children and SOC of mothers. No statistically significant relationship was found between the number of siblings and family income and SOC of children and mothers. While there was a weakly significant relationship between mother's educational level and SOC of children, no significant relationship was found between mother's educational status and SOC of mothers. There was no significant relationship between DMFT of children and SOC of mothers, but a weakly significant relationship was found between DMFT of children and children's plaque index. Conclusion: As a result of this study; while there was a relationship between mothers and adolescents SOC, there was no correlation between caries experience and SOC.
