Oral Orientation With App
The oral health educational method of this group comprised a total of 72 adolescents aged between 14 and 19 years who received standardized oral guidance performed by one of the previously trained researchers and included aspects of general and oral health and, in particular, of periodontal diseases. This intervention was carried out in a classroom, in a group with approximately 20 participants, providing an environment of discussions about the subjects covered. The duration was approximately 15 minutes. The participants also received an App for smartphone containing messages of reinforcement in oral health which was sent during a period of 30 days.
Oral health educational methods: An educational protocol including different methods of education will be evaluated through the knowledge score and periodontal indexes.
