To understand the oral health status and oral health awareness of leukemia children in the Greater Bay Area, and to conduct oral health education, while providing a basis for improving multidisciplinary treatment plans for leukemia children Randomly select leukemia patients who seek treatment in the Hematology Department of Shenzhen Second People's Hospital for a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire is divided into two parts: basic information of the child, oral health status, and health awareness This survey ultimately obtained 204 complete and valid questionnaires, with only about one-third of the affected children (37.25%) consistently brushing their teeth at least twice a day; 200 children (98.04%) have never used dental floss The oral health education and oral hygiene promotion for leukemia patients in the Greater Bay Area still need to be strengthened; The multidisciplinary treatment plan for children with leukemia still needs to be improved.
