First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how well children aged 7-12 with specific learning disabilities (SLD) can remove dental plaque after receiving special toothbrushing education. The education uses visual cards, videos, and parent help. Researchers will compare their plaque removal to healthy children of the same age. The goal is to see if tailored teaching improves oral hygiene in kids with SLD.
