Summary

Oral health knowledge is considered to be an essential prerequisite for oral health related attitude and behavior. Attitude is a mirror of individuals' beliefs, experiences, perception of the cultures, and social interactions. Basically, positive health attitude means positive health behavior. This also applies to a great extent to oral health attitude and is of paramount importance when it relates to oral health professionals. Therefore, with proper knowledge and oral health behaviour, oral health professionals can play an important role in oral health education of their patients as well as act as role models for these patients and community at large.
