PURPOSE
Previous studies in the dental traumatology literature have proposed an association between incidence of dental trauma and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of comorbid dental trauma and ADHD in children presenting for both trauma-related and routine dental care.
METHODS
An Institutional Review Board-approved case group series study examined both populations using the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder rating scale IV (ARS).
RESULTS
Data were collected from 161 children. There were no differences in overall ARS score or in the inattentiveness subscale. Children with a confirmed recent history of dental trauma did score higher on the hyperactivity/impulsivity subscale (P<.001). There was no difference in subjects scoring above the 90th percentile on the ARS based on group.
CONCLUSION
Children presenting with dental trauma scored a higher baseline level of hyperactivity/impulsivity.
目的
牙科创伤学文献中先前的研究提出了牙齿创伤发生率与注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）之间的关联。本研究的目的是评估因创伤相关和常规牙科护理就诊的儿童中合并牙齿创伤和ADHD的发生率。
方法
一项经机构审查委员会批准的病例组系列研究使用注意力缺陷多动障碍评定量表IV（ARS）对这两类人群进行了检查。
结果
收集了161名儿童的数据。ARS总分或注意力不集中子量表方面没有差异。近期有牙齿创伤确诊史的儿童在多动/冲动子量表上的得分确实更高（P<0.001）。基于分组，在ARS上得分高于第90百分位数的受试者之间没有差异。
结论
患有牙齿创伤的儿童多动/冲动的基线水平较高。
