This episode will cover Oral health promotion and intervention. Oral health promotion is a process of increasing knowledge and empowering individuals and communities to increase the control they have over their own oral health. The key component to success of oral health promotion is informing and motivating members of the community to adopt healthy living habits and behaviors. Dental hygienists are change agents in oral health promotion and are prevention specialists tasked with educating others to reach their fullest potential. Theory’s and models related to oral health promotion will be discussed.
As I say.... "Those who know will grow."
