Le but de notre étude était de déterminer les habitudes d'hygiène bucco-dentaire et l'état de santé parodontale d'une population d'élèves à Abidjan. Nous avons mené une enquête transversale sur un échantillon de 1228 élèves. Nos résultats ont montré que les élèves avaient de mauvaises habitudes d'hygiène bucco-dentaire qui se traduit par un mauvais état de santé parodontale. Plus de 80 % d'entre eux présentent des dépôts de tartre et 9,6 % de la population ont des poches parodontales.
