يعتبر مرضى الشلل الدماغي أكثر عرضة للالتهابات اللثوية و المشاكل الفموية الاخرى
بسبب الضعف العضلي و عدم القدرة على إنجاز العناية الفموية اللازمة. تهدف هذه
الدراسة إلى تقييم حالة اللثة و حالة النسج حول السنية لدى المرضى المصابين بالشلل
الدماغي و مقارنتها مع أشقائهم السليمين.
It is recognized that Cerebral Palsy (CP) can have
direct and indirect effects on oral health status, and that results in
Gingivitis, periodontitis and other oral diseases, because of their

maintenance is a difficult task for patients.
Objectives: to assess the gingival and periodontal status in patients
with CP and compare that to their healthy siblings.
