“…Chewing is one of the main markers of oral motor functions, and in clinical evaluation, information can be obtained from families as "with/without chewing problems" (27), and it can be evaluated observationally with different batteries (28). According to the infor- (30). This outcome also causes swallowing disorder due to the insufficient food chewing practices (12).…”

In children with suspected cerebral palsy (CP) after birth who are followed up, the possibility of swallowing disorder should also be considered from the early stages and should be evaluated on a regular basis. The aim of the study was to compare the prenatal, natal, and postnatal histories in children with CP with and without swallowing disorder. Materials and Methods:Children with CP who were between 2 and 16 years old and who were currently subjected to oral feeding were evaluated. The demographic characteristics and natal histories of the children were noted by asking their caregivers. The 3-ounce water swallow test was used in swallowing evaluation.Results: On the basis of the results of the water swallow test, 46 children were divided into two groups: those who had no swallowing disorder (n=15) and those who had swallowing disorder (n=31). The groups were similar in terms of histories between the prenatal period and natal period (p>0.05). Postnatal histories, including gagging after sucking, weight loss, chewing problem, and head control, were different between groups (p=0.024, p=0.001, p=0.001, and p=0.047, respectively). Conclusion:It is important to evaluate the postnatal symptoms and motor development of children with CP who have swallowing disorders during follow-up.

Aim To investigate the factors association with dental caries experience in the primary dentition of Thai preschool children with cerebral palsy. Methods and results A cross‐sectional study was conducted among sixty Thai preschool children with cerebral palsy, aged 3–6 years old. Caries experience was determined by identifying decayednon‐cavitated and cavitated lesion, missing, and filled surfaces of deciduous teeth(dmfs). Sociodemographic data, CP motor types, dietary habits, oral health behaviors and dental plaque index were collected. Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to identify the strength of the association between factors and dental caries experience. The prevalence of dental caries was 91.66%. The average dmfs was 20.30 ± 21.63 surfaces/individual. The multiple linear regression indicated that dmfs was significantly associated with snacking carbohydrate between meals more than two times/day (β ± SE = 0.372 ± 0.125; p = 0.004), spastic type of cerebral palsy (β ± SE = 0.309 ± 0.124; p = 0.015) and one‐time daily tooth brushing (β ± SE = 0.306 ± 0.124; p = 0.017). Conclusions Nine out of 10 preschool children with CP experienced dental caries. Spastic type of CP had more risk to develop dental decay. Caries prevention for preschool children with CP should emphasis on controlling the frequency of carbohydrate snack no more than two times/day and reinforcing tooth brushing at least twice daily.

Serebral Palsi’li Çocuklarda Çiğneme Bozuklukları ve İlişkili Beslenme Problemleri

Serebral palsi (SP) doğum öncesi, sırası veya sonrasında beyinde oluşan hasar sonucu meydana gelen klinik bir tablodur. Serebral palsi, çocukluk çağı engelliliğinin en yaygın nedenlerinden biridir. Serebral palside duyusal, motor ve zihinsel problemler tabloya eşlik etmektedir. Özellikle orofasiyal bölgedeki duyusal ve motor etkilenim beslenmenin önemli bir aşamasını oluşturan çiğneme fonksiyonunda ciddi problemlere yol açmaktadır. Çiğneme, besinleri parçalayıp yutmaya hazır hale getirilmesi sürecini ifade etmektedir. Çiğneme bozukluğu ise besinin ağıza alınması, ağızda tutulması ve yutulabilir bir kıvama getirilmesi sırasında görülen problemleri ifade etmektedir. Çiğneme fonksiyonu normal gelişim gösteren çocuklarda 4-6 ay civarında gözlenmeye başlamakta, dil hareketlerinin artması, dişlerin çıkması ve katı besin deneyimleriyle birlikte 8 yaşına kadar gelişim göstermektedir. Serebral palsili çocuklarda görülen oromotor disfonksiyonlar, anormal nörolojik gelişim, postüral bozukluklar ve kognitif etkilenim yaşa uygun besin dokularını yönetme ve besinleri yutulabilir kıvama getirme becerilerini olumsuz etkilemekte ve çiğneme bozukluğuna neden olmaktadır. Çiğneme bozukluğu nedeniyle SP’li çocuklarda katı besinlerin alımı sınırlanabilmekte ve daha çok yarı katı veya sıvı besinler gibi çiğneme becerisi gerektirmeyen besinler tercih edilmektedir. Bu durum gerekli enerji alımını sınırlandırabilmekte ve beslenme bozukluğuna neden olmaktadır. Aynı zamanda öğünlerin hazırlanması süreci de düşünüldüğünde hem çocuk, hem de aile için olumsuz sosyal etkileşim ve yaşam kalitesinde düşmeye neden olmaktadır. Bu nedenle çiğneme bozukluğu olan SP’li çocukların beslenme durumları erken dönemde belirlenmeli ve uygun tedavi yaklaşımları planlanmalıdır.
