Resumo
This study investigates the impact of forced migration on oral and dental health, focusing on individuals with high social and intellectual capital who were displaced after the July 15 events in Turkey. Despite regular oral care, many exhibited significant lower molar tooth loss and advanced periodontal breakdown. The findings highlight the relationship between psychological trauma, immune dysregulation, and oral health, with bruxism (teeth grinding) emerging as a significant contributing factor. To understand this phenomenon fully, the study delves into the psychological and physiological mechanisms behind trauma, the challenges posed by forced migration, and the specific vulnerabilities of mandibular molars.
