Özet:

 

Some of the reasons for being admitted to the clinic with the need for emergency treatment in dentistry are trauma-related injuries. Etiological factors include most frequently household accidents at young ages followed by falls/crashes and sports injuries. In addition to these factors, congenital/systemic diseases and the sleepiness and distraction caused by some drugs in relation to these, as well as neurological, behavioral and physical disorders seen in diseases like epilepsy, make children more prone to dental injuries. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between systemic/congenital diseases and drugs used in relation to these diseases and trauma of the permanent teeth. Files of 440 patients at the ages of 7-17 who visited the pedodontics clinic due to traumatic injury were examined. By determining those without any health problems and those with serious health problems and using medication for a long time from these files, the patients were grouped based on age, sex and the severity of traumatic injury. Considering the health problems, the ratios of the children with respectively asthma, epilepsy and cardiac disease were found to be higher. When traumatic injuries were separated as simple injuries and serious dental injuries that may end up in loss of teeth, it was determined that 61% of the children with health problems had severe dental injuries. As a result of our study, it was considered that serious health problems or related medication usage may be effective in trauma injuries seen in children. However, to make a clear conclusion on this topic, it is needed to conduct further studies.
