Abstract: Background : Based on the results of Basic Health Research in 2018, the global incidence of dental and oral health problems reached 76%. The data obtained shows that the national prevalence rate for dental and oral health problems is 25.9%. The 15-24 year age group has 51.9% dental and oral health problems.
