| Abstract: | Sleep is an integral part of health. When this part of an individual's life isn't in its proper form, it might lead to many other abnormalities or disorders. This is said to be sleep disorder or somnipathy. It is a medical disorder of sleep patterns of a person or in a simpler term it is said to be a group of conditions that affect the ability to sleep well on a regular basis. The aim of this study is to determine the sleep disturbances among dental students. A questionnaire based study was conducted to evaluate the duration, disturbances of sleep and effects of sleep deprivation among dental students in Saveetha Dental College. An online survey was conducted among 100 dental students from Saveetha dental college. Causes of sleep disturbance, the after affects of sleep deprivations and their normal sleep hours have been calculated in percentage. Only 10% of the students of dental college go to bed before 10pm whereas 41% sleep between 10pm-12am and the rest 49% sleep after 12am. Most students reported daytime dysfunction and they suffered from nausea (5.6%), headache (6.7%), irritability (33.3%), sometimes all of the above mentioned (27.8%). Sleep disturbances cause considerable issues among dental students. The major issue that is presented in this study is the difficulty in concentrating while performing an individual's day to day activity after lack of sleep. |
