Abstract

Health starts with prevention and the fostering, in the field of oral health in our health clinics in Andalusia, and assistant staff have a shortage of knowledge about how to perform these activities. For this reason, a program of health prevention and awareness is being carried out. The main aim is has been to analyse the oral health quality of locals before and after the program, as well as determining the oral health indexes and the effectiveness of the aforementioned program; the specific objectives are detecting the needs for treatments of these patients and coordinate the needs for treatment at hospital level. Thanks to this study, today there are activities related to oral health awareness in centres for disabled people.
