About this trial

The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Oral Assessment Sheet (OAS). The OAS is a clinical assessment tool developed to evaluate oral health conditions such as lips, tongue, mucosa, saliva, swallowing, and voice.

This study will investigate whether the Turkish version of the OAS is a valid and reliable tool for assessing oral health status in clinical practice. Participants will undergo oral assessment using the Turkish version of the OAS. Statistical analyses will be performed to determine the validity and reliability of the scale.

The results of this study are expected to provide a standardized oral assessment tool that can be used in Turkish clinical settings.
