primordial prevention

primordial prevention refers to prevent at a very early stage, often before the risk
factor is present, the activities which encourage the emergence of lifestyles,
behaviors and exposure patterns that contribute to increased risk of disease ,ex

population{mass} strategy

represent prevention approaches that target the whole population or large

subgroups of it. This strategy rests on the observation that many risk factors and
risk behaviors (e. g. blood pressure, smoking) exhibit a continuum of severity and
associated risk for disease

high risk strategy

prevention strategies aim to identify individuals or groups who are likely to have
an increased incidence of a disease, based on the presence of modifiable risk
factors known to be causal for the disease (e.g., high blood pressure)

tooth brushing technigue

When it comes to maintaining good oral hygiene, there are many steps and
processes you can use to do so; flossing, mouthwash, specialised diet, etc.
However, one of the most effective, and widely used methods for ensuring high
quality oral hygiene is brushing.

there are a variety of methods you can use to make sure your brushing is more
effective at cleaning your teeth, and removing tartar and plaque build-up. Not to
mention food that has been caught in the gaps between your teeth:

1- Charter’s Brushing Method .

2- Bass (Sulcular) Brushing Method .

3- Circular Brushing Method .

4- Stillman’s Brushing Method.

5- Scrub Brush Method .

6-Charter's Method Indications .

- Stillman’s Brushing Method :

With this method the aim is to remove plaque from above the gum line, and is
also good for patients with gingivitis.

Technique: angle the bristles at 45 degrees toward the gum line. The bristles
should be half on the gums and half on the tooth’s surface. By making short, light
horizontal movements, the plaque is removed from above the gum line. The
motion helps to remove plaque and stimulate the gums, and is great for targeting
small groups of teeth effectively. Once you have finished with a set of teeth, move
to the next and repeat.
