We aimed to investigate the health behaviour of Iranian senior dental students in terms of oral self\u2010care and tobacco use during a 10\u2010year period to assess their preparedness to act as role models for health\u2010promoting behaviours.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study was performed in six dental schools selected through stratified cluster random sampling to have a representative sample of all dental schools in Iran. Data were collected in four occasions in 2005, 2008, 2011 and 2015. Senior dental students (<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u20091188) were invited to voluntarily complete a self\u2010administered anonymous questionnaire about their oral self\u2010care and tobacco use. Recommended tooth\u2010brushing habit (RTH) was defined as at least twice a day brushing with fluoridated toothpaste. Three separate questions about cigarette, pipe and waterpipe use were applied to assess the students' reported use of tobacco.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The response rate was 81%. Female students reported more frequently RTH than males (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u2009.001). The reported RTH was more prevalent among nonsmokers. In 2005, 2008, 2011 and 2015, 22.5%, 26%, 28.5% and 24.6% of the students reported smoking, respectively. The trend of reported smoking had the least variation among female students.
