Purpose: There is no study in literature that assesses the results of nutrition and oral hygiene training given in the early period of type 1 diabetes. The purpose of this study is to study the nutritional and oral hygiene habits in children with the subject of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) diagnosis, to compare the same age group with systematic healthy controls and to re-evaluate the findings in the 3rd month of diabetes control. Tools and methods: 60 people between 10 and 16 years of age were included in our work. Our working groups, similar in terms of age, size, weight and body mass index, formed the 3rd month check (DK) of systematically healthy individuals (S), new T1DM diagnosed patients (DY) and patients with T1DM. In periodontal examinations of individuals, OHI-S (Oral Hygiene Index) and SKI (Sulkus Blood Index) were determined. The study was conducted with the parents of the individuals who participated in the nutrition and oral hygiene survey. Results: in the DY group, the OHI-S values were higher than in the DK group (p=0.005). In the DY group, SKI values were found more than S and DK groups (respectively; p = 0.002 and p = 0.015). The percentage of people who did not eat was in the DK group (90%). In the DY group; the percentage of individuals who often consume sweets (66.7%) and the percentage of individuals who often consume drinks (76.7%) was higher. In the S group, the percentage of individuals who consumed snacks was decreased (26.7 per cent). The percentage of individuals who brush their teeth regularly and whisper their teeth is according to the DY group (relevantly; 30%, 10%), the DK group (relevantly; 76%). 7,46.7 per cent of the total number of votes. In the DY group, the percentage of individuals with general tooth bleeding during washing was higher than in the group (53.3), S (26.7) and DK (23.3). Results: Nutrition habits that may also affect oral hygiene have been observed in children with uncontrolled T1DM. Therefore, oral hygiene and nutrition training given to diabetic individuals; it is important for both the control of diabetes and the execution of periodontal health.

The aim of this study was to evaluate oral hygiene and nutritional education in children diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), and reevaluate the children diagnosed with T1DM after 3 months, and compare them with those of systemically healthy controls. Materials and Methods: The present study was consisted of 60 individuals aged between 10-16 years. Systemically healthy individuals (S), patients with newly diagnosed T1DM (DY), and their control after 3 months (DK), formed the study groups which were similar with regard to age, height, weight, and body mass index. The periodontal examination was consisted of OHI-S (Oral Hygiene Index) and SBI (Sulcus Bleeding Index). Oral hygiene and nutritional questionnaire was conducted with the parents. Results: OHI-S values were higher in group DY, compared to group DK (p = 0.005). SBI values in group DY were higher compared to group S and group DK (p = 0.002 and p = 0.015, respectively). No meal skipping percentage in group DK was the highest (90%). The percentages of usually sweet (66.7%) and drink consumption (76.7%) were the highest in the group DY. The percentage of usual snack consumption was the lowest in group S (26.7%). The percentages of usually tooth brushing and gargling increased in group DK (76.7% and 46.7%, respectively), compared to group DY (30% and 10%, respectively). The percentage of bleeding on brushing in group DY (53.3%) was higher compared to group S (26.7%) and group DK (23.3%). Conclusions: Dietary habits, which can effect oral hygiene, is disrupted in children with uncontrolled T1DM. Oral hygiene and nutritional education of individuals with diabetes is important for both control of diabetes and maintenance of periodontal health.
