In Basal (B), invitations were carried out to participate (person to person), followed by signing of the informed consent document. The intervention, for the GE, consisted of: Form to determine knowledge, practices and self-efficacy; educational presentation of 10 minutes duration with illustrated flipchart (to a maximum of 4 participants); O’leary index; practice of oral hygiene with individual guidance; Clinical inspection and dental record; Dental prophylaxis and inactivation of carious lesions in cases that were indicated. For the GC: The same procedures, only that the educational content was deliberated exclusively verbally.

Results: The rate of O’leary index improve for GE, in B was 88% for GE and 85% for GC, and in Cc, 14% and 58% respectively (p = 0.00001). Knowledge: In B 89% of participants (17) achieved ‹60% correct responses, in Cc = or› 60% correct answers: 58% (11) of GE and 16% (3) of GC (p=0.007). The practices and perceived self-efficacy did not have significant variation.
