dc.description.abstractINTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE. The proactive involvement of health and education professionals with a focus on development transition groups is an important pillar for achieving the oral health goals for 2020 established by the World Health Organization and require reinforcement of actions for health promotion and prevention of oral diseases. Thus, it is justi+ed to develop a program of oral health promotion in schools, such as ProSorriso (Costa, 2014), in order to evaluate the e9ectiveness of the Program. METHODS. Quasi-experimental study, with measures’ application before and after the implementation of the ProSorriso Program, in 200 adolescents, aged between 11-16 years (mean of 13.21±1.014 years). This Program is developed in three phases: diagnosis, intervention and evaluation of the oral health of adolescents. The application of the Questionnaires of Eating Habits, Oral Hygiene and Oral Health Knowledge, as well as mouth observation according to WHO criteria (1997), occurred before and after participation in the program. RESULTS. Adolescents improved their oral health after active participation in ProSorriso, presenting fewer decayed teeth and more +lled teeth. Their dental plaque bio+lm also improved with signi+cant bene+ts for adolescents who bene+ted from the Program interventions (t = 7.389; p = .000). Adolescents’ knowledge about oral health and nutrition enhanced signi+cantly after participation in the ProSorriso Program (t = -6.510; p = .000); (t = 2.523; p = .012). CONCLUSIONS. Adolescents improved their health status, eating habits, hygiene and oral health knowledge, recognizing the e9ectiveness of the implementation of the ProSorriso Program as a determinant of adolescents present and future health.pt_PT
