“…The concept of Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) assesses the functional, social, and psychological effects of oral diseases [ 9 ], revealing significant differences between healthy children and those with general diseases [ 10 ]. Mild to moderate hearing impairment can lead to negative consequences affecting psychological, behavioral, social, and emotional development [ 11 ], impacting oral hygiene practices and quality of life [ 12 ].…”

Aim This study aimed to evaluate the oral health status of children with hearing impairments and assess the relationship between various oral health factors and the Pediatric Oral Health-Related Quality of Life. Materials and methods This observational cohort study involved 90 hearing-impaired children aged 6–12 years. Diagnostic tools such as pure-tone audiometry were used to evaluate their hearing abilities. Dental health was assessed by calculating DMFT, dmft, Plaque and Gingival indices. The oral health-related quality of life was measured using the POHRQoL. Results The severity of hearing impairment varied with 3% having severe hearing loss, 13% having profound hearing loss, and 83% having complete hearing loss. A high prevalence of dental cavities with 93% of children affected was found. DMFT score was similar between males and females (2.5 ± 0.3 vs. 2.3 ± 0.3 respectively). Males exhibited a higher mean dmft score (4.1 ± 0.5 vs. 3.3 ± 0.5), and a higher mean Plaque Index (1.9 ± 0.1 vs. 1.5 ± 0.1). On the other hand, females showed a higher mean Gingival Index (0.9 ± 0.1 vs. 1.1 ± 0.2). Results indicated a decreased OHRQoL with a mean POQL score of 6.4 ± 2.89. Spearman’s test revealed a significant positive correlation between POQL total score and DMFT scores (P = 0.000), dmft scores (P = 0.000), Plaque Index scores (P = 0.000), and Gingival Index scores (P = 0.038). There was a weak positive correlation between hearing impairment severity and POQL total score, it was not statistically significant. Conclusions Children who have hearing impairments exhibit poor oral health, and levels of dental caries, which can negatively impact their overall POHRQoL. Therefore, it is highly recommended to start specialized oral health education and comprehensive dental care programs to improve their OHRQoL.

“…Research conducted comparison research to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of suggested method vs established approaches based on k-nearest neighbors (KNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Hearing is essential for normal language and speech development, and hearing impairment occurs whenever the acuity to normally heard noises is reduced [11]. Many studies show that one out of once each three to four educated citizens with any degree of hearing loss faces educational, social, and impede learning.…”

The Arabic Sign Language has endorsed outstanding research achievements for identifying gestures and hand signs using the deep learning methodology. The term "forms of communication" refers to the actions used by hearingimpaired people to communicate. These actions are difficult for ordinary people to comprehend. The recognition of Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) has become a difficult study subject due to variations in Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) from one territory to another and then within states. The Convolution Neural Network has been encapsulated in the proposed system which is based on the machine learning technique. For the recognition of the Arabic Sign Language, the wearable sensor is utilized. This approach has been used a different system that could suit all Arabic gestures. This could be used by the impaired people of the local Arabic community. The research method has been used with reasonable and moderate accuracy. A deep Convolutional network is initially developed for feature extraction from the data gathered by the sensing devices. These sensors can reliably recognize the Arabic sign language's 30 hand sign letters. The hand movements in the dataset were captured using DG5-V hand gloves with wearable sensors. For categorization purposes, the CNN technique is used. The suggested system takes Arabic sign language hand gestures as input and outputs vocalized speech as output. The results were recognized by 90% of the people.
