The study will investigate to verify whether pediatric dentists could determine chewing performance level by using Karaduman Chewing Performance Scale in children.
The KCPS was developed by physical therapists who had expertise in pediatric swallowing disorders. This scale could be used as a practical tool to define chewing disorders as a common language for professionals due to its quick and easy to use features. However, its reliability in other professions has not been verified. The study will investigate to verify whether pediatric dentists could determine chewing performance level by using Karaduman Chewing Performance Scale in children.
