Abstract:

 Aim: The aim of this study was to assess bruxism and temporomandibular disorder in mothers of children with cerebral palsy CP. Materials and Methods: 18 mothers of children with CP and 18 mothers of healthy children were included in study. The pressure pain threshold of the masticatory muscles and the upper trapezius were measured with a digital dynamometer. Maximum mouth opening was assessed with a digital caliper. Bruxism was evaluated by a non-instrumental method. Sleep quality, depression, neck disability, and temporomandibular disorder were evaluated with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Beck Depression Index, Neck Disability Index, and Fonseca Questionnaire. Results: Pain thresholds were lower p0.05, sleep disturbance, depression, neck disability, and temporomandibular disorder were higher in the mothers of children with CP p0.05. Conclusion: Our study showed that bruxism and temporomandibular disorder are highly observed in mothers of children with CP.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı serebral palsili çocuğu olan annelerde bruksizmi ve temporomandibular rahatsızlığı değerlendirmekti. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya serebral palsili çocuğu olan 18 anne ve sağlıklı çocuğu olan 18 anne dahil edildi. Çiğneme kasları ve üst trapez kasının ağrı eşiği dijital dinamometre ile ölçüldü. Maksimum ağız açma mesafesi dijital kaliper ile ölçüldü. Bruksizm non-enstrümental yöntemle değerlendirildi. Uyku kalitesi, depresyon, boyun özürlülüğü ve temporomandibular rahatsızlık; Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi, Beck Depresyon Envanteri, Boyun Özürlülük İndeksi ve Fonseka Anketiyle değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Serebral palsili çocuğu olan annelerde kas ağrı eşikleri düşüktü p0,05, uyku bozukluğu, depresyon, boyun özürlülüğü ve temporomandibular rahatsızlıksa daha yüksekti p0,05. Sonuç: Çalışmamız serebral palsili çocuğu olan annelerde bruksizm ve temporomandibular rahatsızlığın yüksek oranda görüldüğünü gösterdi.
