Dental health behaviour of adolescents and their parents II

Júlia Bartos¹, *Judit Mészáros²

Summary
The aim of the second part of our study is similar to that of the first part: our main target is to get a picture about the adolescents’ and their parents’ self-qualification concerning the status of their teeth and also about their attitude to dental prevention. During the survey including closed and open questions we processed 164 parents’ and 186 adolescents’ questionnaires. In the results statistically proven differences can be seen in the oral hygiene patterns of the parents and their children and also in their attitude towards health education. According to the conclusions the adolescents have greater trust in the possibility of dental prevention, but their parents are more open to dissemination of information on health promotion, so we suggest holistic formation of health behaviour in all age groups.
