Summary
This study tested whether having a dental professional clean the teeth of older adults in their own homes every three months, combined with using a high-fluoride toothpaste daily, could prevent root cavities. The study included 194 adults aged 65 and older who needed help with daily care. The goal was to see if this approach improves oral health compared to usual care.
