Article Abstract
This article aims to assess the importance of caring for oral health among prisoners, as an often-overlooked aspect of general health well-being in prisons. The incidence of oral disease among prisoners compared to the general population is much higher due to many factors such as limited access to dental care, unhealthy lifestyles and overcrowded cells. The research review confirms the need to increase access to dental care and promote hygiene awareness among inmates. Differences between genders and the impact of the length of the sentence on oral health are also pointed out.
