With recent trends in European child welfare policies moving towards shifting more responsibility for children health to parents, this study was intended to learn about parents’ knowledge of dental hygiene and the impact of education on oral health practices in economically disadvantaged families in Romania. Data about parent’s education, tooth brushing practices, and visits to a dental practice were collected from 64 participants. Data analysis using non-parametric statistical tests suggests that parents from this disadvantaged socio-economic category do not pay appropriate attention to their children’s dental hygiene. Activities aimed at increasing awareness are recommended alongside existing community support.
