Abstract

Background: There have been several advances in the field of dentistry and yet oral health remains a neglected sector among the upcoming generation. Oral Health Literacy (OHL) is merely a tool to propagate the importance of maintaining oral health and thus bridging the gap between healthcare providers and patients. The study aimed to assess the association between oral health literacy and oral health status among management students. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional analytical survey of 150 students presently studying at the Institute of Management was carried out. There were 55.34% (n = 83) males and 55.6% (n = 67) females.
