Background: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most common hereditary autoinflammatory disease. We aimed to investigate the oral health status and oral hygiene habits in children with FMF.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 199 children with FMF, aged between 3-18 years, were included.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess oral health and halitosis in children aged 6-13, comparing those with type 1 diabetes to healthy children using various dental health indices.
- Results showed that diabetes does not significantly worsen oral health, with similar decayed teeth rates in both groups, but diabetic children had a lower plaque index.
- The conclusion highlighted the need for ongoing dental care and education about oral hygiene for both diabetic children and their parents, regardless of the findings.
Root fracture injuries affect 0.5%-7% of permanent teeth. Although cervical root fractures are less frequent in children, their serious consequences and poor prognosis may lead to tooth loss.
