Abstract

Special Olympics (SO) athletes in many parts of the world were reported to have poor oral health and high unmet treatment needs. This study was carried out to determine the oral health condition and treatment needs of SO athletes in Nigeria and to suggest ways of improving access to oral healthcare. Consenting athletes who participated in SO events in Nigeria from 2007 to 2008 received oral examination and evaluation by trained volunteers, using standardized Special Smiles screening forms and procedures designed for the event. A total of 1,286 athletes aged 3 to 71 years, 480 (37.3%) females and 806 (62.7%) males, participated in the screening. The majority (86.1%) cleaned their mouths once daily, 12.2% complained of pain, 21.1% had untreated decay, 6.6% had dental injury, 48.1% had gingival signs suggestive of periodontal disease, 15.8% required urgent treatment, and 43.7% required non-urgent treatment. We found that the oral health of SO athletes in this study was poorer than that of the general population in Nigeria.

摘要

据报道,世界许多地区的特奥会(SO)运动员口腔健康状况不佳,治疗需求未得到满足的情况普遍。本研究旨在确定尼日利亚特奥会运动员的口腔健康状况和治疗需求,并提出改善口腔医疗服务可及性的方法。2007年至2008年期间,同意参与的尼日利亚特奥会运动员接受了经过培训的志愿者使用为该赛事设计的标准化“特别微笑”筛查表格和程序进行的口腔检查和评估。共有1286名年龄在3至71岁之间的运动员参与了筛查,其中480名(37.3%)为女性,806名(62.7%)为男性。大多数(86.1%)运动员每天清洁口腔一次,12.2%的人抱怨疼痛,21.1%的人有未经治疗的龋齿,6.6%的人有牙齿损伤,48.1%的人有提示牙周疾病的牙龈症状,15.8%的人需要紧急治疗,43.7%的人需要非紧急治疗。我们发现,本研究中特奥会运动员的口腔健康状况比尼日利亚普通人群的口腔健康状况更差。
