■认知能力低下可能会降低理解口腔健康重要性和进行必要实践以保持适当口腔卫生的能力。高龋齿风险后早期失去乳牙可能导致永久牙列错牙合。本研究旨在评估青少年的认知水平与正畸治疗需求之间的关系。
在2018年1月至2018年5月之间,邀请了200名10-15岁的青少年申请马尔马拉大学儿科牙科诊所并寻求正畸治疗。通过“正畸治疗需求指数-美学成分”评估了150名同意参加的青少年的正畸治疗需求,并通过Raven标准渐进矩阵(SPM)测试评估了他们的认知水平。P值<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
■完成SPM测试的126名青少年(77名女性和49名男性)的平均年龄(±标准偏差)为11.8(±1.3)。智力水平与正畸治疗需求之间没有一致性(Kappa值=0.071,p值=0.081)。青少年的错牙合严重程度与智商得分之间没有相关性(ρ[rho]=-0.089,p=0.322)。根据多元逻辑回归结果,在智商不同的青少年中,“临界需求”(p=0.059)和“巨大需求”(p=0.881)与“无需”正畸治疗之间没有差异。
■结果显示没有证据表明咬合不正和智商之间存在关联。
UNASSIGNED: Low cognitive ability may reduce the ability to understand the importance of oral health and to perform the necessary practices to maintain proper oral hygiene. Early loss of primary teeth following high caries risk may lead to malocclusion of permanent dentition. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the cognitive levels of adolescents and their orthodontic treatment needs.
UNASSIGNED: Between January 2018 and May 2018, 200 adolescents aged 10 - 15 who applied to the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of Marmara University and sought orthodontic treatment were invited to participate in the study. The orthodontic treatment needs of 150 adolescents who agreed to participate were evaluated with the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need - Aesthetic Component and their cognitive levels were evaluated with the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices (SPM) Test. P-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
UNASSIGNED: The mean age (± standard deviation) of 126 adolescents (77 females and 49 males) who completed the SPM test was 11.8 (± 1.3). There was no consistency between the intellectual level and the need for orthodontic treatment (Kappa value = 0.071, p-value = 0.081). There was no correlation between malocclusion severity and intelligence quotient scores of adolescents (ρ [rho] = -0.089, p = 0.322). According to Multiple logistic regression results, there was no difference between \'borderline need\' (p = 0.059) and \'great need\' (p = 0.881) from \'no need\' for orthodontic treatment in adolescents with different intelligence quotients.
UNASSIGNED: The results showed no evidence for an association between malocclusion and intelligence quotient.
