March 21, 2016: Session 1 Park Central Location

Our first meeting, at the Park Central Housing community was with the
Housing authority director in attendance along with some residents. There
were only a few residents in attendance that day. The director was a little
disappointed but she stated that this was a brand new location and that she,
at that moment, was working on building a rapport with the Park Central
community residents. It is her desire that in the near future, presentations
and out-reach programs like ours will be mandatory at that community. The
first thing we did was give the residents a pre-test to get an idea of their
dental knowledge.
We then educated the residents about plaque and its
detrimental effects on the gingiva.
We explained that if plaque is not
mechanically removed with a toothbrush daily, it can cause gingivitis. We

educated the residents about what gingivitis is and the symptoms it causes.
We showed them pictures off of our learning poster board and also passed
our patient education books around so that they could get more visuals. We
explained that plaque has a domino effect that moves beyond gingivitis if it
goes untreated.
We then presented each resident, the director and the
secretary in attendance with a toothbrush, dentifrice and floss. We asked

questions about the lesson and exposed the residents to the dental hygiene
profession. We invited everyone to return the following week and told them
about our raffle as an incentive to get them to return.
To increase the
success of residential participation, after our session was over, we walked

around the premises with the director inviting other residents to attend our
second session the following week.
April 05, 2016: Session 3 Lakeview Location

Our second meeting was at the same location, Parkview Central. We
educated the residents on how periodontitis is formed and its destructive
results. They were informed that by the lack of good oral hygiene plaque will
calcify and turn into calculus (tartar).
Due to this neglect recession and
bone-loss are inevitable and tooth-loss would be the end result. We taught
the residents that periodontitis is irreversible and that the disease can be
halted from progressing by visiting a professional like ourselves.
The
residents were also given information about the LIT dental hygiene clinic,
and all the services we offer for the low price of $25.00. We also gave them
a print-out of all local, low-cost healthcare services offered in their
community.
The residence director also asked us to talk about the
educational opportunities offered at LIT. We informed the residents of all of

the educational programs it has to offer including the dental hygiene
program. We talked to them about financial aid possibilities and the process
of college admission. In conclusion the residents were given an opportunity
to ask questions about periodontal disease and we also asked them
questions about the lesson from the first meeting in regards to plaque and
gingivitis.
The residents were then given a post-test to evaluate their
learning level. The director was very happy with all the information shared
and asked if we could talk to a second residential community, the Lakeview
location she coordinates events for, we agreed.

April 12, 2016: Session 2 Park Central Location

For our third meeting we went to a different residential community, the
Lakeview Housing Community. This is an older community and attendance
for our Oral Hygiene Program was mandatory for all the residents. Although
our lesson plan for today was to educate the residents about the caries
process, proper brushing and nutrition, our plan was reverted to Lesson Plan
1 and we educated the residents about plaque and its detrimental effects on
the gingiva. We explained that if plaque is not mechanically removed with a
toothbrush daily, it can cause gingivitis. We educated the residents about
what gingivitis is and the symptoms it causes. We showed them pictures off
of our learning poster board and also passed our patient education books
around so that they could get more visuals. We explained that plaque has a
domino effect that moves beyond gingivitis if it goes untreated. We asked
them if any of their gums bled when brushing and some raised their hands.
We explained that their gums bleed because of the presence of bacteria in
the plaque. We also explained that they must continue to brush even if they
bleed and educated them on how to angle their toothbrush. We explained
that brushing twice a day would be ideal but that they should brush at least
once before going to bed because that is when they are at a higher risk of
developing caries. We then presented each resident, and the secretaries in
attendance with a toothbrush, dentifrice and floss.
We asked questions
about the lesson and also exposed the residents to the dental hygiene
profession because some were very interested.

happy to have us and everyone participated in some form. We were very

pleased with the number that showed up and we invited everyone to return
the following week and told them about our raffle as an incentive to get
them to return. The director was very happy with our presentation.
April 25, 2016: Session 4 Lakeview Location

For our fourth session we went once again to the Lakeview Housing
Community. This is an older community and attendance for any Presentation
or Community outreach program is mandatory for all the residents. Although
our original lesson plan for today was to educate the residents about the
tobacco, oral cancer, and to teach them how to perform head/neck and
intraoral self-assessment cancer screenings; our plan was reverted to Lesson
Plan 2 because this is a new group.
We educated the residents about
periodontitis, what it is, how it is formed and its detrimental consequences.

The residents were informed that by the lack of good oral hygiene plaque will
calcify and turn into calculus (tartar) in as little as 48 hours.
Due to this
neglect recession and bone-loss are inevitable and tooth-loss would be the
end result. We taught the residents that periodontitis is irreversible and that
the disease can be halted from progressing by visiting a professional like
ourselves to remove all the calcified build-up from around the teeth and
under the gum-line where we cant see it.
The residents were also given
information about the LIT dental hygiene clinic, and all the services we offer:
cleaning, sealants and x-rays for the low price of $25.00. We also gave them
a print-out of all local, low-cost healthcare services offered in their
community including dental care. The residence director asked us to talk

about the educational opportunities offered at LIT.
We informed the
residents of all of the educational programs it has to offer including the

dental hygiene program. We talked to them about financial aid possibilities
and the process of college admission. We gave out information print-outs
about all of the educational opportunities LIT offers including school
admission applications.
In conclusion the residents were given an
opportunity to ask questions about periodontal disease and any questions

they had about furthering their education. We also asked them questions
about the lesson from the first meeting in regards to plaque and gingivitis.
The residents were then given a post-test to evaluate their learning level.

Objectives
1. Increase the oral health knowledge of the residents by 25%, by interacting in dental based
word games.
2. Decrease plaque of the residents 15%, through brushing modification instructions and
implementing a daily plaque control routine and teaching proper flossing techniques.
Due to the fact that we had two separate groups we were only able to implement a daily
plaque control routine by asking them to brush at least twice a day and to floss at least
three times a week. Because we had to divide our time between two separate
communities the time allotted did not allow for a more in depth implementation.
3. Teach residents about the effects of tobacco in the oral cavity and system.
Due to the fact that we had two separate community groups, time did not allow us to
educate the residents of either community about tobacco and its detrimental effects in the
oral cavity and overall health. Instead we talked to the residents about plaque and its
domino effects in the oral cavity causing gingivitis, periodontitis and calculus (tartar).
4. Provide an oral/head and neck cancer screening, by teaching visual inspection and
teaching self assessment.
Again, because we had two separate community groups, the time allotted did not allow us
to speak to the residents about tobacco, oral/head and neck cancer screenings. Instead we
talked to them about periodontitis and the detrimental effects it causes in the oral cavity
and overall health.

J De La Garza
5. Establish a daily routine of proper oral hygiene for the residents that can be easily
remembered and followed.
We educated the residents from both communities about the importance of brushing twice
daily and flossing at least once before bedtime. We informed them that if they cannot for
any reason brush twice to at least do it once before bed. We also asked them to
implement this home-care regimen daily for two weeks so that they could see a positive
effect in regards to gingivitis.
6. Provide a dental resource list to help residents find low cost dental providers in their area.
We provided all of the residents from both communities informational print-outs about
local low-cost healthcare and dental care providers.
7. Provide details about all careers LIT has to offer including the DH program.
We were able to educate the residents from both communities in regards to all of the
educational opportunities LIT has to offer. We gave each of the residents packets with
information about the admission process, sonography, police academy, and the dental
hygiene program amongst others.

We were able to increase the oral health knowledge of the Lakeview community by 7%.
Did we meet our Goals?
The goal of this project was to increase the knowledge and skills on oral hygiene of the Port
Arthur Housing residents by 25% and to teach them about the benefits of a healthy oral cavity
and how it is correlated with the rest of the body to improve their overall health.
I believe that we met our goals by educating both communities about plaque, what causes it and
how to prevent it from calcifying by implementing a home-care oral hygiene regimen that is
simple to follow and remember. We taught our patients to brush twice daily and floss at least
once per day. We stressed the importance of brushing twice daily but we told them that if for any
reason they cannot brush twice a day to at least brush once before going to bed. We explained
that they are at a higher risk of getting caries if they go to bed without brushing. We were able to
increase the oral health knowledge of the Parkview Community residents by 19.5% and we were
able to increase the oral health knowledge of the Lakeview community by 7%. We didnt meet
our goal of 25% on either community but at least we increased their knowledge overall.
We met our goals by teaching both communities about gingivitis and the symptoms it presents
with. We informed the residents that gingivitis is reversible but we also informed them that if it
is not reversed by brushing at least twice a day and flossing daily that it can also progress into a
much worse disease.
We met our goal of speaking and educating about periodontitis disease and its detrimental effects
on the oral cavity. We taught about how periodontitis is irreversible and if not halted it causes
recession and bone loss. We educated that once you have periodontitis the residents must go to a
professional to have their teeth professionally cleaned in order to halt the disease. Failing to halt
the disease inevitably leads to tooth loss.
We met our goals by being a service to our community and bringing knowledge and
opportunities for low cost dental and healthcare.
Evaluation:
The strengths of this program was the wealth of information that was brought to each of the
residents from both communities. We were able to apply congnitive learning by educating the
residents about plaque, gingival diseases and by applying a pre and post-test at each community.
8

C Jefferson
J De La Garza
We were able to apply Affective skills by challenging each resident to implement the home-care
regiment of brushing at least twice per day and flossing at least 3 times per week for two whole
weeks. We were able to apply a psychomotor skills by demonstrating to the residents a proper
brushing technique. The director was very happy with our oral hygiene program and she was
also happy that we talked to her residents about continuing education and the different
educational opportunities LIT offers.
Although the director didnt note any weaknesses in our program, we feel that one of the
weaknesses in this program was time, because we had to divide our allotted time into two
separate communities, we were not able to teach more about oral health. We didnt get to
educate about tobacco and its effects on oral health, we didnt get to speak about cancer, and we
didnt get to teach more in depth about the caries process and proper nutrition.
I would recommend that perhaps two groups of students go out to educate these communities,
one group per community rather that one group for both communities. If two groups are
involved I think more could be taught and learned by the residents.
Future site for oral health program:
Both the Parkview community and the Lakeview community are great candidates to continue an
Oral hygiene program in. The residents are in true need of assistance and appreciate all the
information shared with them. The target group is of mainly women and men and a few kids, a
family oriented target group. The director and staff on site were very courteous and helpful in
every way. Since this was the first time an oral hygiene program was implemented on these two
communities, scheduling a time was a bit of a hassle in the beginning but, now that the program
has been established we advised the director to keep the month of April open for implementation
of the program again in 2017.
