Comparison Of Oral Hygiene Status Between Children With And Without Deleterious Oral Habits- Case Control Study

Author: PAVITHRA H.DAVE, MAHESH RAMAKRISHNAN
Abstract: Oral habits in children, particularly if they continue past the preschool period, have been affiliated as an essential portion associated with the development of malocclusion. Oral health plays an essential part in general well-being and is more necessary for the peculiar growth of general health and overall well being. The orofacial function offers indispensable actions such as breathing, chewing, and swallowing and muscle posture and creates the basis for social synergy in terms of speech, emotional connection. The knowledge of prevalence and determinants of poor oral hygiene status can help formulate policies for prevention, interception, and corrective therapy. The primary aim of the study was to assess the oral hygiene status between children with and without deleterious oral habits and the secondary aim was to assess gender difference in the OHIS scores in patients attending a private dental hospital. The cast sheets of patients were obtained from patient records. The data of each patient was obtained and tabulated. Although the OHI score showed a significant difference between gender (p<0.05), we couldn't deduce a significant difference in the oral hygiene of children with and without oral habits.
