Study start date: June 25, 2025
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.This study focuses on examining how students in physical therapy and pharmacy programs at Sinai University take care of their oral health and what they eat. It aims to understand the connection between these students’ oral care routines and their eating habits, and how these might relate to any oral health issues they experience. Additionally, the study seeks to compare the knowledge about oral health between students from these two different fields. This research is important because maintaining good oral health is crucial for overall well-being, affecting basic activities like talking, eating, and smiling. Participants in this observational study will share information about their oral hygiene practices and dietary habits. The study will look at what these students know about oral health and how they apply this knowledge in their daily lives. By evaluating their nutritional habits and hygiene routines, the study aims to identify patterns or correlations that could inform better oral health practices. This research does not involve any medical treatments or interventions, and its findings could help improve educational approaches to oral health in university settings.
