Socioeconomic and behavioral determinants of tooth brushing frequency: results from the representative French 2010 HBSC cross ‐sectional study
ConclusionsWe believe that preventive health campaigns should target school and family environments more specifically to reach the most disadvantaged sections of the population and include promotion of whole health. The messages should be designed to efficiently reach adolescents, e.g., by appealing to their maturity, self‐esteem, and emotional factors. Through the incorporation of qualitative research elements, identifying the reasons for not brushing twice a day would also help to develop new prevention programs.
