Abstract

The André Vidal de Araújo Municipal Special Education School (EMEEAVA) is an institution that promotes school education and the development of the potential of students with disabilities, at all stages and modalities of basic education. This research aimed to evaluate the oral health conditions of EMEEAVA students and the understanding of their relatives and/or caregivers regarding oral health. An interview was conducted with the guardians/caregivers, and doubts regarding oral hygiene care were clarified. Through the procedures that were carried out, a booklet of dental information on oral hygiene practices was developed.
