الهدف من البحث: تقييم الحالة الصحية الفموية عند مجموعة من الأطفال المصابين بأمراض قلبية خلقية و مجموعة من الأطفال الأصحاء في مدينة اللاذقية.
المواد و الطرائق: شملت العينة 100 طفل تراوحت أعمارهم بين (5-12) سنة من مراجعي قسم الأطفال في مشفى الأسد الجامعي - اللاذقية, 50 طفل منهم لديه إصابة قلبية خلقية مشخصة (مجموعة الدراسة), و 50 طفل سليم مطابق لهم بالعمر و الجنس (المجموعة الشاهدة). تم إجراء فحص فموي و تقييم النخر السني, اللويحة, التهاب اللثة و عيوب الميناء التطورية لكل طفل في كلتا المجموعتين.
النتائج: كان متوسط مشعر النخر في الإسنان المؤقت dmft و كذلك كل من متوسط مشعر الالتهاب اللثوي و اللويحة السنية أعلى بشكل هام إحصائيا̋ في مجموعة الدراسة مقارنة بالمجموعة الشاهدة, في حين لم توجد فروق ذو أهمية إحصائية فيما يتعلق بكل من متوسط مشعر النخر في الإسنان الدائم DMFT و عيوب الميناء التطورية بين كلتا المجموعتين.
الاستنتاجات: لوحظ أن مستوى الصحة الفموية عند الأطفال ذوي الأمراض القلبية الخلقية متدنٍ مقارنة بالأطفال الأصحاء, و هذا يزيد من خطورة تعرضهم لتجرثم دم و بالتالي الإصابة بالتهاب شغاف القلب الانتاني, و من هنا تكمن الأهمية الكبرى للرعاية السنية عند هؤلاء الأطفال منذ بزوغ أول سن.
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.
