“…[34][35][36] Lifestyle modifications have been successfully implemented even in the very old, provided that comorbidities are not overwhelming. 13,24 In particular, the use of ICT provides additional opportunities to supplement traditional methods of oral health promotion in these community settings. 39 Additionally, self-efficacy expectations are positively and significantly associated with the initiation and maintenance of healthy behaviours.…”

“…37,38 Developing an understanding of oral health knowledge, attitudes and beliefs among older adults is the first step towards designing health promotion programmes which guide policies and programmes. 13 These approaches may prove to be more successful than simply representation to these groups' information that already exists or that emphasizes oral health professionals as the source of information. 40,41 Oral health education and prevention efforts must be tailored for specific subgroups of older adults.…”

“…8 Health knowledge not only influences, but precedes health behaviours. Two Australian studies 12,13 have evaluated oral health knowledge and attitudes among older urban residents, while information from their rural counterparts is lacking. However, studies in older adults have often focused on oral health status and practices, 5,10,11 whereas knowledge and attitudes have seldom been investigated.…”

Findings indicate that there were some misconceptions in oral health among this group of older adults. These are important influences on the success/failure of an oral health programme. Oral health education is needed to increase older adults' oral health knowledge, in particular of oral cancer, and to some extent periodontal disease, and improves attitudes and oral health self-efficacy. Oral health knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy were minimally explained by socio-demographic and clinical variables.

Objective In the present study, we attempted to assess how psychological theories (health belief model [HBM], theory of planned behaviour [TPB], social cognitive theory [SCT], clinical theories [CT] and other theories [OT]) influence oral health interventions. Methods PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and Web of Knowledge databases from 2000 to 2017 were searched. We defined psychological theories based on five subgroups: (A) HBM, (B) TPB, (C) SCT, (E) CT and (F) OT. Results From the 156 identified studies, 19 studies based on PICO were included. Our findings indicated that the standardized mean difference (SMD) of HBM was 0.37 (95% CI: 0.24, 0.51), which was statistically significant in improving oral health. The SMD of SCT was not significant (0.05 [95% CI: −0.33, 0.44]) in improving oral health. The SMD of TPB was significant (1.66 [95% CI: 1.06, 2.27]) in improving oral health. The SMD of CT (−4.6 [95% CI: −6.49, −2.71]) and OT (2.93 [95% CI: 1.55, 4.32]) revealed significant differences in improving oral health. Conclusion The current meta‐analysis showed that in general, psychological interventions that used OT, CT, HBM and TPB were effective in enhancing oral health status, and interventions that used SCT did not have an effect on improving oral health status. Oral health care providers who work with patients to take methods and improve behaviours that are related to appropriate oral health need to comprehend their applicability and strengths.
