Purpose: Epilepsy is a medical and social disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. It is a general view that patients with epilepsy have worse oral health than the general population. The DMFT index has been widely used worldwide to determine oral and dental health. The aim of this study is to determine the oral health status of epilepsy patients using the DMFT index and to compare it with the control group.
Materials & Methods: The DMFT score of the groups was determined by clinical and radiological examination. Decayed, missing and filled teeth were recorded immediately after the examination.
Results: The number of decayed teeth was 7.27 ± 3.994 in the epilepsy group and 4.04 ± 2.202 in the control group (p<0.05). The number of missing teeth was 5.71 ± 5.891 in the epilepsy group and 3.01 ± 3.763 in the control group (p<0.05). The number of filled teeth was 2.07 ± 2.382 in the epilepsy group and 3.50 ± 2.196 in the control group (p<0.05). DMFT scores were 15.05 ± 7.128 in the epilepsy group and 10.55 ± 5.589 in the control group (p<0.05).
Conclusion: It has been shown in this study that patients with epilepsy have worse oral health compared to the general population, but they do not receive adequate treatment. Functionally and aesthetically adequate dental treatment should be provided to these patients and their quality of life should be increased.

Amaç: Epilepsi tekrarlayan nöbetlerle karakterize, tıbbi ve sosyal bir bozukluktur. Epilepsili hastaların genel popülasyondan daha kötü ağız sağlığına sahip olduğu genel bir görüştür. DMFT indeksi, ağız ve diş sağlığını belirlemek için dünya çapında yaygın olarak kullanılan bir indekstir. Bu çalışmada DMFT indeksi kullanılarak epilepsi hastalarındaki oral sağlık durumunun belirlenmesi ve kontrol grubuyla kıyaslanması amaçlanmaktadır.
Materyal & Metod: Grupların DMFT skoru klinik ve radyolojik muayene ile belirlenmiştir. Çürük, eksik ve dolgulu dişler muayenenin hemen ardından kaydedilmiştir.
Bulgular: Çürük diş sayısı epilepsi grubunda 7.27 ± 3.994 ve kontrol grubunda 4.04 ± 2.202 idi (p<0.05). Eksik diş sayısı epilepsi grubunda 5.71 ± 5.891 kontrol grubunda 3.01 ± 3.763 idi (p<0.05). Dolgulu diş sayısı epilepsi grubunda 2.07 ± 2.382 ve kontrol grubunda 3.50 ± 2.196 idi (p<0.05). DMFT skorları epilepsi grubunda 15.05 ± 7.128 ve kontrol grubunda 10.55 ± 5.589 idi (p<0.05).
Sonuçlar: Epilepsili hastaların genel popülasyona kıyasla daha kötü ağız sağlığına sahip olduğu, ancak yeterli düzeyde tedavi almadıkları çalışmamızda gösterilmiştir. Fonksiyonel ve estetik olarak yeterli diş tedavisi bu hastalara sağlanarak yaşam kalitesi yükseltilmelidir.
