Negligence in observing it, leads to dental problems, endangering the general health conditions, low self-confidence, chronic infections and lower quality of life, especially in children. Any change or improvement in the health of this group can have a lasting and significant impact on the health of the future generation of the community. As a result, children's access to oral and dental health knowledge is only achievable through the school, which is the easiest and most cost-effective way.
