Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objectives are a) to determine the scores of general self-efficacy (GSE) and oral hygiene related self-efficacy (OHSE) b) to evaluate the relations between the scores of GSE and OHSE c) to examine the changes in OHSE scores and the relationship between OHSE and PI scores after motivation and oral hygiene instructions. OHSE scores could be an indicator in predicting daily plaque control of patients. Also, it may be needed to show greater interest about motivation and oral hygiene instructions especially for smokers and OHSE-low group patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All study patients (n=210) between the ages of 35 to 60 with inflammatory periodontal diseases filled out questionnaires regarding GSE and OHSE. Subgroups including OHSE-low (n=26) and OHSE-high (n=26) groups were selected after performing "cut off" on OHSE scores of all study patients. In both subgroups, plaque index (PI) values were determined, and motivation and oral hygiene instructions were performed at baseline. PI measurements and OHSE questionnaire were repeated at 1 and 3 months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

2 groups: OHSE-high and OHSE-low

OHSE-high: Group with ≥ 50 OHSE scores received motivation and oral hygiene instructions .

OHSE-low: Group with \< 30 OHSE scores received motivation and oral hygiene instructions .

motivation and and oral hygiene instructions

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Motivation and oral hygiene instructions were received OHSE-high and OHSE-low groups. After showing the modified-Bass tooth brushing technique and interdental cleaning on the model, patients were followed up while brushing and flossing their teeth to correct misapplications. It was advised to brush teeth twice a day and use the interdental cleaning devices once a day.
