Özet:

 OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the relationship between orthodontic treatment, oral hygiene practices, and periodontal health in individuals undergoing or completed orthodontic treatment. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Systemically healthy patients undergoing or completed stable orthodontic treatment were included in the study. The periodontal status of 142 participants was determined using a comprehensive oral hygiene questionnaire and clinical oral examinations to assess various periodontal indices. Chi-square and t-tests were used for statistical analyses to compare periodontal status metrics between groups. RESULTS: Statistical analyses revealed no significant differences between oral hygiene habits, periodontal indices, or periodontal status between the ongoing treatment OT and post-orthodontic treatment PT groups p0.05. However, significant differences were noted in attachment level, dental visit frequency, and reasons for visits between the OT and PT groups p0.05. While participants generally showed similar oral hygiene awareness and practices, differences arose in toothbrushing times during orthodontic treatment and adherence to orthodontist recommendations. CONCLUSION: This study investigated the effect of OT on oral health and concluded that OT did not change oral hygiene habits but affected attachment levels. Orthodontists should consistently guide patients on oral hygiene and managing clinical attachment loss. In these cases, the patient should be referred to a periodontist when necessary.

 AMAÇ: Bu çalışma ile ortodontik tedavi görmekte olan veya tedavisini tamamlamış bireylerde ağız hijyeni uygulamaları ile periodontal sağlık ve hastalık durumu arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Sabit ortodontik tedavi görmekte olan veya tamamlamış 142 katılımcının periodontal durumları klinik indeksleri incelenerek tespit edilmiştir ve kapsamlı bir anket ile oral hijyen alışkanlıkları hakkında bilgi sahibi olunmuştur. Sistemik olarak sağlıklı, sabit ortodontik tedavi gören veya tamamlanmış hastalar çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Gruplar arasında periodontal durumların ölçümlerini karşılaştırmak için istatistiksel analizlerde kikare ve t-testleri kullanılmıştır. BULGULAR: Ortodontik tedavisi devam eden OT ve postortodontik tedavi PT zamanında olan gruplar arasında ağız hijyeni alışkanlıkları, periodontal indeksler veya periodontal durum açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık olmadığı bulunmuştur p0.05. Bunun yanında OT ve PT arasında ataşman seviyesi, diş hekimi ziyaret sıklığı ve ziyaret nedenleri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık kaydedilmiştir p0.05. Katılımcılar genel olarak benzer ağız hijyeni farkındalığı ve alışkanlığı gösterirken, OT sırasında diş fırçalama sürelerinde ve diş hekimi tavsiyelerine uymada farklılıklar ortaya çıkmıştır. SONUÇ: Bu çalışma OTnin ağız sağlığı üzerindeki etkisini araştırmış ve ağız hijyeni alışkanlıklarını değiştirmediğini ancak klinik ataşman seviyelerini etkilediğini bulmuştur. Ortodontistler, hastalarını ağız hijyeni alışkanlığı kazandırmak ve klinik ataşman kaybını önlemek için periodontologlara yönlendirmelidirler.
