Abstract:
Oral Hygiene means cleanness of your mouth. There are some procedure to make ones mouth clean such as brushing twice a day (In the morning after breakfast and before going to bed), duration of tooth brushing 1-2 minutes, use of mouthwash and floss, cleaning tongue regularly, avoiding cigarette and frequent use of sugar containing foods, visiting doctor regularly etc. From the previous study it is understand that young generation follows these procedures and maintain their oral hygiene most. And in every generation female follow this more than the male. In this survey it is understand that more than half of the students know the oral hygiene procedures and follow this. All the procedures have been followed by the pharmacy students more rather than other students and by female students more rather than male students. In some cases male students also show some consciousness like avoiding smoking because in this survey very less amount of students do smoking and pharmacy students are less enough than other students. So it is understand the pharmacy students show more consciousness about their oral health. Other students know all the procedure to make ones oral hygiene but they don’t follow this because of habituation and laziness and most of them are from other departments.
