Brief Summary:
The background for the study is that many bariatric surgery patients struggle with their oral health after bariatric surgery This is probably related to both physiological changes and changes in eating and drinking patterns In addition many have reduced oral health even before surgery and a significant proportion also have dental treatment anxiety which also affects their ability to seek dental treatment In sum this is probably a patient group that may be at risk of oral pathology
Participants in the study will be randomly allocated to different patient education programmes The three interventions are
1 customised information on a website
2 education delivered by a clinician
3 distribution of free samples relevant to dental hygiene
The outcomes recorded are level of knowledge drinking patterns self-perceived oral health and oral hygiene routines

Detailed Description:
Both caries and periodontitis are more prevalent among people with obesity At the same time we know that bariatric surgery is associated with poorer oral health expressed by caries enamel erosion and short-term increased inflammation in the gums Although we do not yet have evidence to determine causality we suspect that oral health in bariatric surgery patients is further impaired by both systemic effects hyposalivation altered oral microbiome reflux and vomiting and by altered eating and drinking patterns after surgery acid exposure with subsequent demineralisation of tooth enamel
The patients own diet and oral hygiene can be an opportunity to prevent or slow down such oral problems but requires personal effort and must be a special focus in patient education
Patient education is one of the hospitals statutory duties but the quality of patient education is rarely systematically investigated This project investigates the effect of three alternative educational interventions on patients drinking habits oral hygiene routines knowledge level and oral health The three interventions are a website with adapted patient information group-based education given by healthcare professionals and distribution of relevant product samples to maintain oral hygiene Patients are randomised between the different educational interventions
