The aim is to study whether participants at risk could be identified using an aMMP-8 chairside mouth rinse test and to study if oral health and health behaviour is linked to the test result in Finnish adolescents.
Adolescents (14-15-year-olds) are randomly divided to control group and test group. Chairside mouth rinse test for aMMP-8 is performed for the test group. Two groups are compared with each other.
Participants are asked to fill a questionnaire which consists of questions concerning oral hygiene habits, tobacco products, alcohol, drug and snuff use.
