Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of text message active reminders at different time intervals of oral hygiene instructions in patients with orthodontic fixed appliances.
Detailed Description:
Participants with orthodontic fixed appliances will be recruited from the university hospital clinics to receive text message reminders of oral hygiene. Four groups of participants will be formulated. Group 1 will be the control group and will not receive text messages. Group 2 will receive messages once a week. Group 3 will receive text message reminders 3 times a week. Group 4 will receive daily reminders. At baseline, after 4 weeks and after 8 weeks, gingival index and plaque index will be measured at each time point and then compared between groups.
