Türk spor bilimleri fakültesi öğrencileri dental travma ve ağız koruyucular hakkında ne biliyor? Tanımlayıcı bir araştırma
Amaç: Sporla ilgili diş ve orofasiyal yaralanmalar, birincil korunma eğitimleri ve spor aktivitesi sırasında uygun ekipmanın kullanılmasıyla önemli ölçüde azaltılabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Spor Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencilerinin diş travması ve ağız koruyucuları ile korunma konusundaki bilgi düzeylerini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma Ankara, Gazi ve Hacettepe Üniversitelerinde yürütülmüş tanımlayıcı bir araştırmadır. Fakültelerin tüm öğrencilerinin (N=3097) dahil edilmesi planlanan çalışmaya, veri toplanan gün okulda olan gönüllüler (tüm öğrencilerinin %28.2) katılmıştır. Veriler öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özelliklerine, dental travma hikayelerine, ağız koruyucu kullanım durumlarına ve dental travma bilgilerine ilişkin toplam 31 sorudan oluşan bir anket aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Yaş ortalaması 22.5±2.9 olan (%60.3 erkek) 875 öğrenci katılmıştır. Tüm öğrencilerin %20.6'sında dental travma öyküsü ve %72.0'ının ilk yardım ve acil durum eğitimi, %20.9'unun oral-dental yaralanma eğitimi almış olduğu öğrenilmiştir. Öğrencilerin %69.5'i ağız koruyucusunu duymuşken, %19.7'si kullandığını belirtmiştir. Ağız koruyucusu kullanımı en sık profesyonel olarak uzak doğu sporları yapan ve buz hokeyi oynayan sporcularda görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin genel dental travma doğru bilgi puanı 2.75±1.68 olarak bulunmuştur ve %66.6 öğrenci bu konu hakkında daha fazla bilgi edinmek istediklerini belirtmiştir. Sonuç: Bulgular, öğrencilerin hem dental travma hem de ağız koruyucuları hakkında yetersiz bilgileri ve spor etkinliklerinde ağız koruyucularının yetersiz kullanımı olduğunu göstermiştir. Her iki konuda da temel bilgilerin, öğrencilerin mezuniyet öncesi bilgi edinebilmeleri için müfredatlarına eklenmesi gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

What do Turkish sports sciences students know about dental trauma and mouthguards? A descriptive study
Objective: Sports-related dental-orofacial-injuries can be reduced significantly through training on primary prevention and using proper equipment before engaging in sporting activities. This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge regarding dental trauma and prevention by mouthguards among the students in the Faculty of Sport Sciences. Materials and Method: This was a descriptive study conducted at Ankara, Gazi, and Hacettepe Universities. Although intended to include all students at the faculties (N=3097), only those who were at the faculty and volunteered (28.2%) on the day the data were gathered participated. Data were gathered via a questionnaire comprising 31 questions on sociodemographic characteristics, dental trauma history, mouthguard use, and knowledge of dental trauma. Results: In total, 875 students with a mean age of 22.5±2.9 (60.3% male) participated. Of these students, 20.6% had dental trauma history, 72.0% had first aid and emergency training, and 20.9% had oral dental injuries training. Of the students, 69.5% had heard about mouthguards, although only 19.7% of these had used them. Mouthguards were mostly used in professional sports activities such as far-eastern sports and ice hockey. The average number of true answers out of ten dental trauma-related questions was 2.75±1.68 and 66.6% stated they wished to learn more about the topic. Conclusion: Results showed a lack-of-knowledge about both dental trauma and mouthguards and inadequate use of mouthguards in sports activities. Therefore, basic information about these topics should be implemented in the curriculum to instruct students before they graduate.
