The Brush Day & Night programme is successful in improving oral hygiene in children, according to a study published in the International Dental Journal.
Poor oral hygiene can have an adverse effect on the quality of life. School-based interventions can establish positive behaviours that reduce the likelihood of dental caries later in life. The Brush Day & Night programme aims to encourage good oral health behaviour and improve oral health and quality-of-life outcomes. In this article, we report the effect of the programme on well-being and oral hygiene measured by plaque levels at 3, 8, and 24 weeks and dental caries at 24 weeks after the programme start date.
