Аннотация
OBJECTIVES: To describe a one-year follow-up study of an oral health care programme in special nursing homes for citizens with severe behavioural disorders.
METHODS: An oral health care programme for residents (n = 264) at special nursing homes, which included an initial oral examination, subsequent dental treatment based on the principles of realistic treatment need and visits by a hygienist every three months, was evaluated one year after implementation.
RESULTS: The follow-up data revealed a significant decrease in the mean number of teeth with primary decay and periodontal treatment need. Also less calculus and visible plaque were present. Regarding denture related conditions, a decrease was found in the presence of traumatic ulcers, denture stomatitis and the need for prosthodontic treatment. Finally, an improvement in denture hygiene was observed. A high rate of participation in the programme was obtained.
CONCLUSION: Professional dental intervention has an effect on oral health indicators even when introduced to rather unapproachable recipients of dental care services.
