| Popis: | Diabetes in children is a chronic condition that involves rigorous blood sugar management to prevent complications. The psychological stress associated with this disease can worsen the general condition and oral health of diabetic children, causing xerostomia, oral infections and gum disease. This study explores the effectiveness of stress management strategies, including relaxation techniques, psychological counseling, family support, and behavioral interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. Research shows that these methods reduce anxiety, improve blood sugar control and adherence to treatment, thus contributing to better oral health and an improved overall quality of life. The integrated approach to psychological stress is essential in the holistic treatment of diabetic children, to prevent long-term complications and promote healthy living. |
