Purpose: This study assessed the relationship between the frequency of deterioration in the first major minor tooth of young adults in different deterioration risk groups, according to the DMFT (dirty-lost-filled number of teeth) index and oral hygiene factors.Reasons and methods: For this study, 360 young adults aged 18 were assessed. The first large minor tooth detection was done using the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. On the basis of the general disruption experience of individuals (DMFT), 3 different risk groups were created. DMFT si 0-2 were included in the low risk (R1), 3-5 were included in the middle risk (R2), 6 or more were included in the high risk (R3) group. For statistical analysis, the Chi-square test was used.The findings: Each risk group consisted of 120 individuals. A total of 360 individuals is 23.6 per cent of the total 1. The major few teeth were solid, and 17.2% of the monkeys found that all the 1st major few teeth were dirty. The frequency of solidity of the first four large minor teeth was found in the group R1 (61%) and in the group R2 (8) and in the group R3 (1%). There was no meaningful relationship between the detrimental state of the first big little tooth and the frequency of toothbrushing (p=0.017), the frequency of going to the dentist (p=0,506), the brushing before bed (p=0,091), the use of flowered toothbrush (p=0,425) and the topical flower application (p=0,326).The result: The first big little toothbrushing rate in these individuals was quite high and this tooth had a significant effect on the rise of the general DMFT value. As the frequency of toothbrushing increases, the rate of dirty appearance in the first big little tooth decreases, young individuals may be advised to increase the frequency of toothbrushing.
