, Klichowska-Palonka M. Effect of prophylactic actions on the state of oral health and hygienic habits in a selected age group. Ann Agric Environ Med. doi: 10.26444/aaem/77975 Abstract Introduction and objective. The aim of the study was investigation of the effect of simple prophylactic methods on the motivation for concern about oral hygiene among 13-15-year-olds. Materials and method. The study covered 98 children from 4 groups attending junior high school. Adolescents from 3 groups were randomly qualified for conducting prophylactic procedures, while the fourth group constituted the control group. Three examinations were performed: preliminary and check-up examinations after 4 and 12 months. The state of the teeth and periodontium and the frequency of brushing of teeth were evaluated. Results. After 4 months, an increase in the number of decayed teeth was observed in all groups; in the control group it was significantly higher compared to the groups subjected to prophylactic actions. After 4 months in the groups covered by prophylactic actions, a significant decrease was obtained in the number of adolescents with CPITN > 0. In the examinations performed after 12 months, no significant differences were found in the value of the DMF and the CPITN index in the examined groups. In both examinations, after 4 and 12 months, the declared frequency of brushing teeth increased, especially in the group which had been provided individual instructions concerning oral hygiene. Conclusions. 1) Implementation of prophylactic methods resulted in an improvement in the state of oral health among junior high school adolescents. 2) Prophylactic actions should be regularly repeated.3) The provision of individual instruction with supervised individual teaching of brushing teeth resulted in an improvement in the motivation for concern about oral hygiene.

“…Moreover, fluoride-containing dentifrices and mouth rinses have proven to decrease caries experience significantly in several randomised, controlled clinical trials (Biesbrock et al, 2001, Marinho et al, 2003. The dose response effect of different fluoride levels in toothpastes was also established in different clinical trials (Chesters et al, 1992, Biesbrock et al, 2003, and in a recent Cochrane review published by Walsh et al (2010), who indicated that the caries preventive effect of fluoride toothpaste significantly increases with higher fluoride concentrations.…”

“…Literature indicated that 1450 ppm F toothpastes display anti-caries efficacy (Walsh et al, 2010, Biesbrock et al, 2003, Chesters et al, 1992, Marinho et al, 2003. This concentration is being used widely in adult toothpastes in Europe.…”
