Brief Summary

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

The goal of this observational study is to determine mean plaque scores to compare the effectiveness after using modified bass and horizontal brushing technique in undergraduate dental students. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Modified bass method is less effective than the horizontal brushing technique for plaque removal in undergraduate dental students
* Modified bass method is more effective than the horizontal brushing technique for plaque in undergraduate dental students.

Participants will check plaque scores with the help of probe and disclosing agents after applying both techniques in a separate quadrant on the same subject. Researchers will compare modified bass and a horizontal brushing technique to see which one is reliable and more effective.
