Abstract

  Teaching a patient oral prophylaxis may seem like an innocuous exercise but it is a most critical aspect in clinical dentistry. It is hardly given the importance it deserves. The purpose of this issue is to highlight its importance and present an effective technique for the same.
Dental therapy is a long complex treatment modality even in the simplest of cases. Once completed, it is very critical to ensure that the treatment lasts for a long number of years and serves the patient effectively while it lasts. This can only be achieved if oral hygiene is maintained impeccably by the patient.
