Study on health status and oral hygiene of children at a primary school. Health status and oral hygiene in schoolchildren

The Authors refer about a research made in a primary school after checking mouth sickness in school boys. The research concerns three periods: 1st. medicaL examination, 2 nd. instructions about a correct oral hygiene, 3 rd. anew inspection. The conclusions they made, are the following: now only the children know what they must do for their teeth in order to avoid mouth sickness and how to prevent then, but also their parents and often their teachers are not sensitive to this problem. So it is necessary that the prevention work begun by the dentist, will be carried on by parents and by teachers.
