Methods We invited parents of children who were hospitalised in the period from the beginning of January till the end of June 2013. We collected data on how frequently children were cleaning their teeth, if they needed any help and how frequently they were visiting a dentist. We also organised a series of workshops for parents on appropriate oral hygiene for children. Results Most of the hospitalised children needed supervision or help from another person for cleaning of the oral cavity. Oral hygiene of children with severe impairments was very difficult to maintain and they needed help. Most of the children visited their dentist on a regular basis. Conclusion The majority of children hospitalised for inpatient rehabilitation need help to maintain oral hygieneUvod: V študiji smo želeli ugotoviti, kakšno je stanje ozaveščenosti staršev o pravilnem izvajanju ustne higiene otrok in kako redno se izvaja čiščenje zob pri otrocih, ki so bili v rehabilitacijo vključeni na otroškem oddelku Univerzitetnega rehabilitacijskega inštituta Republike Slovenije - Soča. Metode: V študijo smo vključili vse otroke, ki so bili v program rehabilitacije vključeni od začetka januarja do konca junija leta 2013. Zbrali smo podatke o tem, kako pogosto si otroci umivajo zobe, ali pri tem potrebujejo pomoč in ali redno obiskujejo zobozdravnika. Za otroke in starše smo organizirali delavnico o izvajanju ustne higiene. Rezultati: Ugotovili smo, da večina otrok, ki so bili vključeni v program rehabilitacije, redno hodi k zobozdravniku. Pri otrocih s hujšimi okvarami občutenja ali tistih, ki imajo zelo povišan tonus mišic, je izvajanje ustne higiene zelo oteženo, zato potrebujejo pomoč. Večina otrok je redno obiskovala zobozdravnika. Zaključek: Večina hospitaliziranih otrok pri umivanju zob potrebuje pomoč druge osebeTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverzitetni rehabilitacijski inštitut RS – Soča
