Summary

The objectives are a) to determine the scores of general self-efficacy (GSE) and oral hygiene related self-efficacy (OHSE) b) to evaluate the relations between the scores of GSE and OHSE c) to examine the changes in OHSE scores and the relationship between OHSE and PI scores after motivation and oral hygiene instructions. OHSE scores could be an indicator in predicting daily plaque control of patients. Also, it may be needed to show greater interest about motivation and oral hygiene instructions especially for smokers and OHSE-low group patients.
