Oral Manifestations Clinical Trial
Official title:
Oral Findings In A Group of Egyptian Children With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Cross-Sectional Study
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is the most common childhood neuro-developmental
disorder that is characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms
last till adulthood in 65% of cases. ADHD has been reported to have a worldwide prevalence of
5.3% and it is more common in boys than in girls (Ghanizadeh 2008; Serra-Negra et al. 2012
and Shooshtari et al. 2013) The symptoms of ADHD are generally treated through behavioral
therapy, with or without pharmacological intervention. Medications prescribed are commonly
divided into stimulant or non-stimulant drugs. The stimulant medications (such as
methylphenidate and amphetamines) have been implicated in adverse oral effects, such as
xerostomia and gingival enlargement. The current evidence is controversial regarding the
severity and prevalence of dental caries, dental trauma, periodontal diseases, oral habits
and tooth wear among patients with ADHD (Chau et al. 2017).
In the Arab world, few studies have been published on ADHD. Accordingly, in the Arab society
and Egypt there are limited data regarding the oral findings of children with ADHD. Owing to
the sparsity of these data, this study will be conducted to evaluate different oral
characteristics of Egyptian children with ADHD.
Due to lack of published studies about the oral findings of Egyptian Children with ADHD, this study will be conducted to cover this point. ;
