Tóm tắt : | 625-631 This study is a follow- up of one made in 1998- 99 on first- year dental students in Monastir. Now in their fifth year, we assessed the effect of dental studies on students' oral health practices and dental health. Of the 155 students in the first study, 140 were still enrolled.

However, the prevalence of smoking, bleeding and calculus had not changed, and the frequency of malocclusion had increased |
