    Summary

    Maintaining oral health requires proper nutrition, saliva flow, and mechanical cleaning. Nurses play a crucial role in assessing and implementing effective oral hygiene strategies to prevent dental issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing
    • Oral Health
    • Preventive Care

    Background:

    • Oral health depends on nutrition, mastication, saliva, and cleaning.
    • Disruptions lead to plaque, caries, and periodontal disease.
    • Nurses must integrate oral care into client assessments and plans.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review existing literature on oral hygiene practices in nursing.
    • To identify areas of agreement and question regarding oral care efficacy.
    • To emphasize evidence-based selection of oral hygiene agents and methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review on oral hygiene components.
    • Analysis of assessment criteria, agents, methods, and frequency.
    • Identification of gaps in current nursing knowledge and practice.

    Main Results:

    • Oral hygiene effectiveness depends on multiple factors, not just convenience.
    • Current practices may lack sufficient evidence of efficacy.
    • Further research is needed to refine assessment criteria and agent effects.

    Conclusions:

    • Nurses should prioritize evidence-based oral hygiene interventions.
    • Further scientific inquiry is required to optimize oral care protocols.
    • Research should focus on assessment criteria and the impact of agents on oral pH.
