Öğe Accessibility to dental services by immigrant and refugee children residing in Turkey(WILEY, 111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ, 2022) Duman, Canan; Uslu, Fatih Samet; Çakmak, Sena; Aytekin, Şevval Ilgın; Apaydın, Tuana; Egil, EdibeBackground: Turkey is hosting the world's largest immigrant population under temporary and international protection. Due to the social inequalities contributing to early childhood dental caries, the effectiveness of dental care service for immigrant children should be evaluated. Aim: To evaluate the accessibility of immigrant and refugee children residing in four different regions of Turkey to oral health products and dental treatment services. Design: A questionnaire consisting of 21 questions was administered: The first six questions elicited demographic data, and the remaining 15 questions asked about oral health habits, access to oral hygiene materials, and dental treatment services. Participants included the parents of 430 children under the age of 18, who were registered with migrant associations in the regions where they lived (Istanbul, Samsun, Hatay, or Ankara). Results: The majority of the participants were from Syria and Iraq. Of the participants, 42.1% reported that their children's oral hygiene habits had changed negatively after they migrated, 71.9% reported that they had not been to the dentist in the last year, and 82.8% reported that they had not been to the dentist for more than 12months. Access to oral and dental hygiene products was not difficult for 68.4%. About 62.6%, however, reported that they had difficulty accessing dental treatment. Conclusion: The findings showed that this disadvantaged group had difficulty accessing dental treatment. Therefore, there is a need for national and international health strategies to ensure that immigrant and refugee children have effective access to dental treatment.Öğe Çocuklarda ve Adölesanlarda Ağız Sağlığına Bağlı Yaşam Kalitesinin Değerlendirilmesi(İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi Yayınları / Istanbul Gelisim University Press, 2021) Yaran, Ayşegül; Egil, EdibeYaşam kalitesi kişinin kendini sosyal, psikolojik ve fizyolojik olarak iyi hissetme halidir. Kişinin fiziksel sağlığından, psikolojik durumundan, sosyal ilişkilerinden ve çevrenin sosyal özelliklerinden etkilenir. Sağlık alanında verilen hizmetlerin değerlendirilmesinde yaşam kalitesi üzerine yapılan araştırmalar önem kazanmaktadır. Hastalık durumunun ve hastalık tedavilerinin birey üzerindeki etkileri sağlık protokollerinin düzenlenmesinde rol oynar. Ağız sağlığı da genel sağlığın ayrılmaz bir parçasıdır. Diş çürüğü, travma ve maloklüzyon gibi oral problemlere çocukluk döneminde rastlanırken adölesan ve yetişkinlik döneminde de etkileri devam edebilmektedir. Ağız sağlığının kötü olmasına bağlı olarak çocuklarda ve adölesanlarda estetik kaygı, konuşma bozuklukları ile birlikte yaşanan ağrıya bağlı olarak uyku, yemek yeme problemleri ve konsantrasyonda zorluk görülmektedir. Ağız sağlığının iyi olması, bireyin günlük aktivitelerini rahatlıkla idame ettirebilmesine katkıda bulunur, bununla birlikte topluma yaratıcı bir şekilde katkıda bulunması konusunda motive olmasına yardımcı olur. Ağız sağlığına bağlı yaşam kalitesinin değerlendirilmesinde çok sayıda ölçek kullanılmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı çocuk ve adölesanlarda ağız sağlığına bağlı yaşam kalitesini ve ağız sağlığına bağlı yaşam kalitesini değerlendirmede kullanılan ölçekleri değerlendirerek bir araya getirmektir.Öğe Comparison of Two Aerosol-Free Caries Removal Methods: A Split-Mouth Randomized Clinical Trial(Sivas Cumhuriyet Üniversitesi, 2021) Duman, Canan; Kalaoğlu, Elif Ece; Şirinoğlu Çapan, Belen; Egil, EdibeObjectives: The management of deep caries lesions in immature permanent molars can be challenging in clinical practice, but minimally invasive caries removal methods can maintain apexogenesis by preventing extensive tissue loss. Here we compare a chemo-mechanical caries removal (CMCR) gel and polymer bur in terms of time spent on caries removal, patient acceptability, and clinical success. Materials and Methods: The teeth of 30 children were randomly divided into two groups. The duration of each method, the level of cooperation during each method, and the child’s choice of caries removal method were recorded. Patients were followed at six-month intervals for at least two years. Results: The difference between the patients’ preferences was not statistically significant, while the average caries removal time of the polymer bur method was significantly shorter (p<0.05) than the CMCR method. The rates of apical closure without pathology in the CMCR and polymer bur groups were 63.2% and 73.7%, respectively; 10% of each group underwent further treatment due to their clinical and/or radiographic pathology. Conclusions: These methods were thought to serve as an interim treatment in managing immature permanent teeth with deep caries. Furthermore, these methods, which do not involve water cooling, can minimize the risk of contamination and cross-infection.Öğe Cost-effectiveness analysis of fissure sealants for caries prevention in children(WILEY, 111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ, 2023) Egil, Edibe; Yaylalı, EmineObjective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of resin-based and glass ionomer-based fissure sealants compared with no intervention for children. Methods: We developed a Markov-based decision analytic model that simulated Turkish children from aged 6 to 15 years. Two types of costs were explored from the payers’ perspective and the health care system perspectives. A costeffectiveness analysis of resin-based and glass ionomer-based fissure sealants was conducted to quantify their effectiveness using the number of caries prevented and the quality-adjusted tooth years (QATYs). Costs and effectiveness measures were discounted at 3% per year. Results: The most cost-effective intervention was resin-based fissure sealant, with an additional $5.34 per caries prevented and $1.86 per QATY gained compared with no treatment. Conclusion: Fissure sealants particularly resin-based sealants are cost-effective for children in Turkey due to their low cost and highly preventive characteristics.Öğe Effect of work environment and specialty degree of dentists on cross-infection control in COVID-19 pandemic(ELSEVIER BRAZIL, R SETE SETEMBRO, 111-16, RIO DE JANEIRO RJ 20050-006, BRAZIL, 2021) Mutluay, Merve; Egil, EdibeObjectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the work environment and expertise/specialty degree of dentists on their behavior, awareness, and attitudes regarding cross-infection control during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: The study population consisted of Turkish dentists who work in private clinics, public clinics and university hospitals. The demographic information of the participants, their awareness of the COVID-19 acute respiratory disease, and clinical measures taken against cross-infection were evaluated with an online survey. Between the 10th and 20th of November 2020, 2,400 surveys were e-mailed to dentists. Results: A total 454 professionals answered the survey. According to the results, 29.3% of the participants performed only urgent care during the pandemic period, whereas 59.9% of them performed both urgent and routine treatments. Among the responding dentists, 90.6% stated that they were worried about aerosol-generating dental procedures, but there was no differences between genders (p = 0.119). Most participants, especially specialists (p = 0.160) , applied strict cross-infection control methods during the COVID19 pandemic (77.2%). These dentists used personal protective equipment (PPE) at rates that varied between 75.5% and 98.4%. Nonetheless, the rate of PPE use was different between genders and degrees of expertise: women used PPE more frequently than men (p = 0.025), and specialists used PPE more often than the other dentists (p = 0.04). Finally, there was a weak positive correlation between the level of PPE use and expertise (r = 0.121; p = 0.010). Conclusions: Despite the overall knowledge of the participants regarding COVID-19 symptoms, transmission routes, and the guidelines needed to prevent the virus from spreading, the dental specialists followed infection control methods more strictly. Even though the participants were concerned about dental practices that create microbial aerosols during the pandemic period, they continued their clinical routines using high PPE levels and taking extra clinical precautions to avoid cross-infection.Öğe Evaluation of BIS-GMA Release in Different Types of Composites(Erzincan Binali Yıldırım Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Karaca, Serhat; Özdokur, Kemal Volkan; Egil, Edibe; Ceyran, Ertuğrul; Duman, CananBIS-GMA is frequently is involved in the structure of composite materials and may remain unpolymerized after polymerization. Residual Bis-GMA has harmful effects, it is crucial to determine the amounts released monomer from dental materials. The aim of this study is to compare residual BIS-GMA amounts in three types of composite. A total of 45 (n=15) composite (Filtek Ultimate Universal Restorative,3M ESPE,Germany), flowable composite (Nextcomp Flow,Meta Biomed,Kore), bulk fill composite(Tetric N Ceram, Ivoclar,Lichtenstein) cylindrical samples were polymerized in Teflon molds in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The samples were placed in 1.5ml ethanol (Carlo Erba, Pharm. Grade, 99.9%) and kept at 37oC. Monomer release of the samples was evaluated on the first, third and seventh days using the High Performance Liquid Chromatography technique. BIS-GMA release was shown with the highest amounts within all groups on the first day. The elution in composite fillings was significantly lower than the other materials on the first day(p<0.05). The highest total emission rates were observed in the flowable composite. The material selected in clinical practice should be considered because the monomer release may vary depending on the composite type.Öğe Evaluation of mesial root canal configuration of mandibular first molars using micro-computed tomography(KOREAN ACAD ORAL & MAXILLOFACIAL RADIOLOGY, SCH DENTISTRY, SEOUL NATL UNIV, SEOUL 03080, SOUTH KOREA, 2021) Altan Şallı, Gülay; Egil, EdibePurpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the root canal morphology of mesial roots of mandibular first molars. Materials and Methods: Forty extracted mandibular first molars were used in this study. The morphological examination of root canals was conducted in accordance with the Vertucci classification using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Any aberrant root canal configurations not included in the Vertucci classification were recorded, and their frequency was established using descriptive statistics. Intra-observer reliability was assessed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, while inter-observer reliability was assessed using the Cohen kappa test. Significance was evaluated at the P<0.05 level. Results: The mesial roots of mandibular first molars had canal configurations of type I (15%), type II (7.5%), type III (25%), type IV (10%), type V (2.5%), type VI (7.5%), and type VII (7.5%). The images showed 10 (25%) additional configuration types that were not included in the Vertucci classification. These types were 1-3-2-3, 1-2- 3-2-3, 2-3-1, 2-3, 1-2-3-1, 2-1-2-3, 3-2-1, 1-2-3-1, 2-3-2-3, and 1-2-1-2-1. The intra-observer differences were not statistically significant(P>0.05) and the kappa value for inter-observer agreement was found to be 0.957. Conclusion: Frequent variations were detected in mesial roots of mandibular first molars. Clinicians should take into consideration the complex structure of the root canal morphology before commencing root canal treatment procedures to prevent iatrogenic complications. Micro-CT was a highly suitable method to provide accurate 3-dimensional visualizations of root canal morphology.(Imaging Sci Dent 2021; 51: 383-8)Öğe Farklı etken maddelere sahip diş macunlarının antimikrobiyal etkinliğinin incelenmesi(Atatürk Üniversitesi, 2020) Egil, Edibe; Ünlü, ÖzgeAmaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı farklı etken maddelere sahip diş macunlarının antimikrobiyal etkinliğinin değerlendirilmesidir.

Being low of flexural strength of glass ionomer has caused the search for different materials that can release fluoride. In this study, fluoride release of new alkasite based filling material which has been developed as an alternative to glass ionomer cement has been evaluated. Three commercially available filling materials were tested for the present study: Traditional glass ionomer (Ketac Molar Easymix, 3M ESPE, Germany), resin modified glass ionomer (Nova Glass LC, Imicryl, Konya,Turkey) and Alkasite filling (Cention N, Ivoclar, Vivadent,Schaan, Liechtenstein). Fluoride release of three filling materials were measured at certain intervals for 63 days. Nova Glass LC, Ketac Molar easymix and Cention N released fluoride throughout the study. Fluoride releases of Nova Glass LC for the first 24 hours were significantly higher than Ketac Molar and Cention N group (p<0.05). It has been observed that Cention N can release fluoride in the long term just like Ketac Molar Easymix and Nova Glass LC glass ionomer cement.Öğe Premolar Agenesis Prevalence and Patterns in a Sample of Turkish Children(Marmara Üniversitesi, 2021) Egil, EdibeObjective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of premolar tooth agenesis patterns in Turkish children and confirm a valid cutoff age. Methods: Included in this study were panoramic radiographs of 3637 Turkish pediatric patients aged 7–12 years (1819 males and 1818 females), whose panoramic radiographs were taken. The prevalence of premolar hypodontia, sex distribution, distribution of premolar hypodontia in the maxilla and mandible, unilateral/bilateral incidences and cutoff ages were examined in radiographs. Results: The prevalence rate of agenesis of one or more premolars was 3.1% (n = 111) for both sexes combined, and 1.4% for boys and 1.6% for girls, with no significant difference between the sexes (p = 0.498). No significant difference was observed between younger and older groups at the cutoff ages examined. Conclusion: An early diagnosis of premolar agenesis enables ideal and conservative treatment planning, which may involve less invasive treatment options for patients diagnosed in the early period. For these reasons, the awareness of dentists regarding these treatments should be enhanced. Therefore, there is a need for more studies regarding the prevalence of this condition, which will provide important clinical value in the timely diagnosis of hypodontia.Öğe Self-reported knowledge, attitudes, and practice of final-year dental students in relation to child abuse: A multi-centre study(WILEY, 111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ, 2021) Duman, Canan; Al-Batayneh, Ola B.; Ahmad, Sajjad; Durward, Callum S.; Kobylinska, Angelika; Vieira, Alexandre R.; Tredoux, Sheree; Okutan, Alev Eda; Egil, Edibe; Kalaoğlu, Elif Ece; Şirinoğlu Çapan, Belen; Akşit Bıçak, Damla; Zafar, SobiaBackground: The number of child abuse cases is increasing worldwide; therefore, it is important to educate individuals having contact with children about it. This includes dentists who play a pivotal role in detecting and reporting child abuse. Aim: To identify and compare the final- year dental student‘s knowledge, attitudes, and practice in relation to child abuse. Design: A 38- item and four- part online questionnaire was distributed to students of 11 dental schools in 10 countries. SPSS and GraphPad Prism were used for data analysis. The levels of statistical significance were determined using a chi- square test. P ? .05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results: A total of 660 students completed the survey. Fifty- six percent of the students received formal training on child abuse, and 86% wanted additional training. The knowledge of child abuse was significantly higher in Australia, the United States, and Jordan compared with other countries. Internet (60.3%) was commonly used as an information source for child abuse. Conclusions: The study showed that dental students lack knowledge and experience in recognizing and reporting child abuse. Most respondents indicated a desire for additional training; therefore, dental schools should review what they are currently teaching and make changes as appropriate.Öğe Siyah Havuç, Vişne ve Nar Konsantrelerinin Streptococcus mutans’ın Biyofilm Oluşturma Özelliği Üzerine Etkisinin Değerlendirilmesi(Türkiye Klinikleri Yayınevi, 2021) Egil, Edibe; Duman, Canan; Ünlü, Özge; Demirci, Mehmet; Altan Şallı, Gülay; Özdal Zincir, Özge; Katiboğlu, Ahmet BülentAmaç: Diş çürüğünün önlenmesi amacı ile çürük yapıcı mikroorganizmaların ağız ortamından uzaklaştırılmasında kullanılan antibakteriyel ajanların yan etkileri, insanların sağlık ihtiyaçları için tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavilere olan ilgisini artırmıştır.
