An assessment of oral self‐care level among Japanese dental hygiene students and general nursing students using the Hiroshima University – Dental Behavioural Inventory (HU‐DBI): Surveys in 1990/1999

Abstract

Although the difference in the HU-DBI score across time was not major, the variation in HU-DBI and the favourable attitudes/behaviour toward oral health appeared to reflect the differences in schooling between student hygienists and student nurses.
