Özet:

 Objective: Dental caries is an important public health problem that affects the majority of the worlds population. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the relationship between oral care practices, food consumption and DMFT index in young adults. Material and Methods: The general characteristics of individuals, oral care practices, anthropometric measurements and food consumption frequencies were questioned with the questionnaire form. The DMFT index was calculated by questioning the number of decayed, missing and filled teeth of the individuals. Results: The mean DMFT index of females was 2.51.6, and the mean of DMFT index of males was 2.01.6, and a significant difference was determined between the genders in terms of mean DMFT index p0.05. According to linear regression analysis, age, gender, frequency of tooth brushing, having a dental examination and smoking status were effective on DMFT index R20.098; p0.001. A positive statistically significant correlation was found between the frequency of consumption of cariogenic foods such as honey, jam, molasses, pastry desserts, sugar added teacoffee, fruit juices, acidic beverages, alcoholic beverages and packaged foods and the DMFT index p0.05. Conclusion: Nutritional habits are as important as oral care practices in the prevention of dental caries. Keywords: Anticariogenic Foods, Cariogenic Foods, DMFT Index, Karyostatic Foods, Oral Care.

 Amaç: Diş çürükleri dünya nüfusunun büyük bir bölümünü etkileyen önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Bu çalışmada genç yetişkinlerde ağız bakımı uygulamaları, gıda tüketimi ve DMFT D: çürük, M: eksik, F: dolgulu, T: diş indeksi arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve yöntem: Anket formu ile bireylerin genel özellikleri, ağız bakım uygulamaları, antropometrik ölçümleri ve besin tüketim sıklıkları sorgulanmıştır. Bireylerin çürük, eksik ve dolgulu diş sayıları sorgulanarak DMFT indeksi hesaplanmıştır. Bulgular: Kadınların ortalama DMFT indeksi 2.51.6, erkeklerin 2.01.6 olup, ortalama DMFT indeksi açısından cinsiyetler arasında anlamlı fark saptanmıştır p0,05. Lineer regresyon analizine göre yaş, cinsiyet, diş fırçalama sıklığı, diş muayenesi olma ve sigara içme durumu DMFT indeksi üzerinde etkilidir R20.098; p0.001. Karyojenik besinlerden bal, reçel, pekmez, hamur işi tatlılar, şeker eklenmiş çaykahve, meyve suları, asitli içecekler, alkollü içecekler ve paketli gıdalar tüketim sıklığı ile DMFT indeksi arasında pozitif yönde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı korelasyon saptanmıştır p0.05. Sonuç: Diş çürüğünün önlenmesinde ağız bakım uygulamaları kadar beslenme alışkanlıkları da önemlidir.
