Awareness and knowledge of halitosis among students at two different dental universities in Turkey: a cross-sectional survey
These results support the importance of developing training programs to improve dentists' self-confidence, social skills, and communication skills, thereby enhancing the diagnosis and treatment of halitosis. A manual for the diagnosis and treatment of halitosis could be helpful for improving dentists' attitudes and behaviours and for promoting optimal oral health.
