Summary

This study looks at whether teaching people how to care for their mouth and teeth can improve oral health, sleep, and quality of life for those using a non-invasive ventilator at home. Thirty adults will be split into two groups: one gets standard printed leaflets, the other gets personalized digital guidance. Researchers will check oral health and sleep quality over three months.
