الهدف: يصادف مقدمو الرعاية الصحية في قسم الإسعاف أموراً عاطفية التي من شأنها أن تعكس تأثيراً سلبياً على نوعية الحياة أثناء معالجة الأذيات الرضية السنية. و إنّ تقييم صحة الفم المرتبطة بنوعية الحياة أثناء المعالجة و تدبير الأذيات الرضية السنية في الحالات الإسعافية يعزز و يحول عملية التدبير من سنية تقليدية إلى رعاية داعمة تركز على الحالات الاجتماعية و العاطفية و الجسدية للفرد، بحيث يتم تحقيق رعاية صحية مناسبة و نتائج مثالية. كان الهدف من هذه الدراسة تحري تأثير الأذيات الرضية السنية على نوعية الحياة لدى أطفال المدارس السوريين بين عمري 7-16 عاماً و اختبار ما إذا كان معالجة هذه الأذيات يحسن من صحة الفم المرتبطة بنوعية الحياة. التصميم الأساسي للبحث:أجريت دراسة حالة-شاهد بمشاركة 147 طفلاً بين عمري 7-16 عاماً من المراجعين لقسم طب أسنان الأطفال في جامعة دمشق. تم اعتماد تصنيف Andreasen لتشخيص الأذيات الرضية السنية. و تم استخدام استبيان إدراك الطفل CPQ11-14 لتقييم صحة الفم المرتبطة بنوعية الحياة (P > 0.05). الخلاصة: تحسنت صحة الفم المرتبطة بنوعية الحياة بشكل واضح عند الأطفال المصابين بالأذيات الرضية السنية بعد المعالجة. و كانت الأعراض الفموية و القصور الوظيفي و الحالتين العاطفية و الاجتماعية جميعها مشابهة لتلك الموجودة عند الأطفال الأصحاء. لذا يتوجب على اختصاصي الصحة في سوريا بذل المزيد من الجهود لتخفيف وطأة و أثر الحرب على الأطفال و ذويهم. و على طب الأسنان في الأزمات أن يتجاوز تحضير و ترميم السن المصابة إلى التزامات أخرى أخلاقية تشمل من خلالها مفهومي الرعاية و الدعم معاً.
Objective: Health care providers in emergency settings encounter emotional issues in treating traumatic dental injuries TDIs which may have a significant negative impact on the quality of life. Assessing OHRQoL of children with TDIs, in emergency, promote a shift from traditional dental management to a more supportive care that focuses on a person’s social and emotional status and physical functioning in which appropriate health care and optimal outcomes can be obtained. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of TDIs on the quality of life of 7to16-year-old Syrian school children and to test whether treatment of TDI will improve their OHRQoL. Basic research design:A case-control study was carried out involving 147children aged 7 to 16 years attending the Department of Pediatric Dentistry in Damascus University. Andreasen classification was adopted for TDI diagnosis. CPQ11-14 instrument was utilized to assess OHRQoL. Results: Findings of this study revealed significant differences in OHRQoL items before and after treatment of participating children. There were no statistically significant differences between healthy children and those who were treated with TDI in regard to the overall OHRQoL (P > 0.05). Conclusions: OHRQoL was significantly improved in children with TDIs after treatment. Oral symptoms, functional limitations, emotional and social well-being were similar to healthy children. Health professionals in Syria should put efforts to make war less damaging for children and their parents. Dentistry during the crisis goes beyond filling and drilling of injured teeth to a moral commitment within a supportive and caring context.

Aim of study:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of antiasthma drug (Budesonide) on oral health of asthmatic children during one year of treatment. Materials and Methods: Thirty children with asthma aged (5-10) years were selected fro
m the children who presented to children´s section at AL-Assad University Hospital in Lattakia with medium asthma severity and they needed to use antiasthma inhaled drug (Budesonide).This study have evaluated dental caries, gingival bleeding, dental plaque and saliva pH for each child before and after treatment with Budesonide in (3-6-9-12) months. Results: The results showed increasing in DMFT, dmft indices ,gingival bleeding index and dental plaque after follow- up for 12 months.
Lexical complexity is a highly subjective notion, yet this factor is often neglected in lexical simplification and readability systems which use a ''one-size-fits-all'' approach. In this paper, we investigate which aspects contribute to the notion of
lexical complexity in various groups of readers, focusing on native and non-native speakers of English, and how the notion of complexity changes depending on the proficiency level of a non-native reader. To facilitate reproducibility of our approach and foster further research into these aspects, we release a dataset of complex words annotated by readers with different backgrounds.
Periodontal diseases are considered to be the most prevalent disease among
population next to dental caries , they differ from other systemic diseases
such as depression , cardiac diseases and diabetes in that they have clear
causes and depend upo
n person’s daily life style .
The health knowledge can play an active role in prevention of oral disease
while other diseases have complicating factors that health knowledge alone
is insufficient to prevent its occurrence .
This study aimed to determine the level of oral health knowledge among of
Damascus university students.
Aim of study: Evaluating the oral health status of children with congenital heart
disease in comparison with the healthy children in Lattakia city.
Materials and Methods: A total of 100 children aged between 5 and 12 years
attending the pediatric
clinic of AL-Assad Hospital-Lattakia were included. The study
group was consisted of 50 children diagnosed with heart disease. The control group was
consisted of 50 healthy children of the same age and gender. Dental caries, plaque,
gingivitis and developmental enamel defects were assessed for each child in the two
groups.
Results: Mean dmft, gingivitis and plaque were significantly higher in the cardiac
group as compared to the control group. Statistically, no significant differences were found
in the comparison between the prevalence of developmental enamel defects and mean
DMFT for the two groups.
Conclusion: Children with congenital heart disease had a poor oral health compared
to the healthy children, which increased the risk of susceptibility to bacteremia and
development of infective endocarditis. Therefore, dental care for children with heart
disease must be seriously considered at an early age when the first tooth erupts.
