Brief Summary:
In Egypt, the prevalence of end stage renal disease in pediatric population has never been estimated on a national scale. The patients at end stage renal disease encounter oral and dental problems that emphasize regular and careful screening . In Egypt, the prevalence of oral findings is not studied so we conduct this study to study the oral findings among a group of pediatric patients at end stage renal disease either on haemodialysis or after kidney transplantation.
Detailed Description:
Study setting:
* The study will be held at the center of Pediatric Nephrology and transplantation, El- Mounira children's hospital (Abu El rish).
* The data collected through the questionnaire will be obtained through an interview between the investigator and the parent or the legal guardian that's based on WHO guide for health surveys(WHO Oral health surveys, 2013)
* For patients undergoing dialysis, examination will be performed at the dialysis unit during dialysis session (there is no waiting room for patients before dialysis).
* For patients who received renal transplantation, examination will be performed at the outpatient nephrology clinic during follow up visits.
* Clinical examination will be performed for both oral (soft tissue) and dental (hard) tissue.
* Decayed-Missing-Filled Index ( DMF ) which was introduced by Klein, Palmer and Knutson in 1938 and modified by WHO.
The components are:
D component:
Used to describe (Decayed teeth) which include:
Carious tooth. Filled tooth with recurrent decay. Only the roots are left. Defect filling with caries. Temporary filling. Filled tooth surface with other surface decayed.
M component:
Used to describe (Missing teeth due to caries) other cases should be excluded.
F component:
Used to describe (Filled teeth due to caries). Teeth were considered filled without decay when one or more permanent restorations were present and there was no secondary (recurrent) caries or other area of the tooth with primary caries. A tooth with a crown placed because of previous decay was recorded in this category. Teeth stored for reason other than dental caries should be excluded.
deft / defs , which was introduced by Gruebbel in 1944
d- decayed tooth . e- decayed tooth indicated for extraction . f- filled tooth
• The coding system for the Modified DDE Index has three items of information that will be recorded for each tooth surface. (Clarkson and O'Mullane, 1989)
First, the Type of Defect, codes 0-7, was recorded. Then the Sub-type of that defect was noted, i.e., when a demarcated opacity was present, the Sub-type was either white/cream (code 1) or yellow/brown (code 2), or when a diffuse opacity was present, then six options were possible. Finally, the extent of each defect was recorded. The new additional sub-type (code 3) termed "diffuse confluent opacity" is defined as a diffuse opacity in which any patchiness has merged into a regular condensed chalky white area, and it could cover the entire surface of a tooth or be confined to a localized area of the tooth surface.
* Oral candidiasis assessment will be based on the Lehner scale (Cleverson et al., 2014)
* In assessing the degree of gingival hyperplasia we will use the index of Angelopoulos and Goaz, described by Prof. T. Djemileva. (Dencheva et al., 2011)
