Oral hälsa hos barn och ungdomar med Downs syndrom : En litteraturstudie / Oral health in children and adolescents with Down syndrome : General literature study

Abdulhasan Looli, Intisar January 2023 (has links)
Syfte: Syfte med denna litteraturstudie var att undersöka oral hälsa hos barn och ungdomar med Downs syndrom    Metod: Studien är en allmän litteraturstudie där sökningarna genomfördes i databaserna CINAHL, MEDLINE och Dentistry & oral sciences source (DOSS). Vetenskapliga artiklar som svarade på studiens syfte valdes utifrån inklusions- och exklusionskriterier samt relevanta sökord. Resultat: Totalt granskades 22 kvantitativa studier som visade att barn och ungdomar med Downs syndrom hade sämre munhygien, fler orala sjukdomar och bettavvikelser jämfört med barn och ungdomar utan Downs syndrom. De redovisade orala sjukdomarna/ tillstånden var karies, gingivit, parodontit, oral candidos, bettavvikelser, attrition, agenesi och dental erosion. Riskfaktorer som kan påverka utveckling av orala sjukdomar och bettutvecklings störningar var exempelvis munhygienvanor och oralmotoriska faktorer. Slutsats: Barn och ungdomar med Downs syndrom har en ökad risk att drabbas av orala sjukdomar och bettavvikelser. Genom ökad kunskap om den orala hälsan hos barn och ungdomar med Downs syndrom kan tandhygienister arbeta förebyggande och motivera till stöd och omhändertagande för denna riskgrupp. / Aim: The aim of this literature study was to investigate oral health in children and adolescents with Down syndrome. Method: The study is a general literature study where the searches were carried out in the databases CINAHL, MEDLINE and Dentistry & oral sciences source (DOSS). Scientific articles that responded to the purpose of the study were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and relevant keywords. Results: A total of 22 quantitative studies were reviewed which showed that children and adolescents with Down syndrome had poorer oral hygiene, more oral diseases and malocclusions compared to children and adolescents without Down syndrome. The reported oral diseases/conditions were caries, gingivitis, periodontitis, oral candidosis, malocclusions, attrition, agenesis and dental erosion. Risk factors that can influence the development of oral diseases and malocclusions, for example, oral hygiene habits and oral motor factors. Conclusion: Children and young people with Down syndrome have an increased risk of suffering from oral diseases and malocclusions. Through increased knowledge about the oral health of children and young people with Down syndrome, dental hygienists can work preventively and motivate support and care for this risk group.
