Abstract

Cilj: Cilj istraživanja bio je usporediti navike, stavove i samoprocjenjenu oralnu higijenu studenata integriranog studija dentalne medicine Stomatološkog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu s objektivnim, klinički mjerljivim parametrima oralne higijene.
Materijali i metode: Istraživanje je uključilo 60 studenata, 10 sa svake godine studija, te je podijeljeno u dva dijela: ispunjavanje upitnika te kliničkog parodontološkog pregleda. Za obradu podataka koristio se programski jezik R te Shapiro-Wilkov, Spearmanov, Kruskal-Wallisov i Dunnov test.
Rezultati: Usporedbom objektivnih i subjektivnih parametara oralne higijene među godinama studija nije potvrđena početna hipoteza da je oralna higijena bolja u studenata viših godina studija te da to korelira s njihovom samoprocjenom. Iako samoprocjena znanja o oralnoj higijeni raste s godinama studija, nema statistički značajne razlike u vrijednostima krvarenja pri sondiranju i plak
indeksa među različitim godinama studija.
Zaključak: Oralna higijena studenata ne poboljšava se s godinama studija što upućuje na potrebu za povećanjem udjela edukacije o oralnoj higijeni u kurikulumu studija dentalne medicine.

Abstract (english)

Objective: The aim of the research was to compare the habits, attitudes and self-assessed oral hygiene of students of the integrated study of dental medicine at the School of Dental Medicine at the University of Zagreb with objective, clinically measurable parameters of oral hygiene.
Materials and methods: The research included 60 students, 10 from each year of study, and was divided into two parts: filling out a questionnaire and a clinical periodontal examination. The programming language R and the Shapiro-Wilk, Spearman, Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests were used for data processing.
Results: Comparing the objective and subjective parameters of oral hygiene between years of study did not confirm the initial hypothesis that oral hygiene is better in students of higher years of study and that this correlates with their self-assessment. Although the self-assessment of oral hygiene knowledge increases with the years of study, there is no statistically significant difference in the values of bleeding on probing and plaque index among the different years of study.
Conclusion: The oral hygiene of students does not improve with the years of study, which points to the need to increase the share of oral hygiene education in the curriculum of dental medicine studies.
