Oral health

The WHO has defined oral health as ‘a standard of the
oral and related tissues which enables an individual to eat,
speak and socialise without active disease, discomfort
or embarrassment and which contributes to general
well-being’.

Oral health education?

This term is generally understood to mean giving patients
personally relevant information about their dental
health, based on scientific evidence. Skills required to perform
OHE involve communicating, motivating, teaching
and training individuals and small groups.
