Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Nordic Orofacial Test-Screening (NOT-S)

    it has 12 domains distributed between two sections. Six domains are based on an interview (sensory function, breathing, habits, chewing and swallowing, drooling and dry mouth) and six based on a clinical evaluation (face at rest, nose breathing, masticatory muscles and jaw function, oral motor function and speech).

    Day 0

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Parental- Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ)

    Day 0

  • Caries Status (the number of decayed (d, D) teeth) in the primary dentition

    Day 0

  • Caries Status (the number of decayed (d, D) teeth) in the permanent dentition

    Day 0

  • Caries Status (the number of missing (m,M) teeth) in the primary dentition

    Day 0

  • Caries Status (the number of missing (m,M) teeth) in the permanent dentition

    Day 0

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Study Group

Children with cerebral palsy aged 3-16 years will be evaluated in terms of the orofacial function using the Nordic Orofacial test- screening (NOT-S). Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) level and Communication Function Scale (CFS) of child will be recorded. Oral health related quality of life will be assessed using the Parental- Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaire. Caries experience will be measured by identifying decayed, missing, and filled teeth for deciduous and permanent teeth (dmft)

Other: NOT-S

Interventions

NOT-SOTHER

Participants are assessed for the orofacial function using the Nordic Orofacial test- screening (NOT-S), Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) and Communication Function Scale (CFS). Oral health related quality of life is assessed using the Parental- Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ). Caries experience was measured by identifying decayed, missing, and filled teeth for deciduous and permanent teeth (dmft). Gingival index and type of occlusion will be recorded.

Also known as: Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS), Communication Function Scale (CFS), The decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index, Parental- Caregiver Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ), Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHI-S), Gingival index, Type of occlusion
