Data on tongue plaque, oral hygiene aids and demographic characteristics were recorded. Data were collected between 2020 and 2023. Generalised estimating equations were used to compare the oral hygiene between both study groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Residents in the Gerodent group (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009171) had significantly lower mean dental and denture plaque scores than their counterparts in the non\u2010Gerodent group (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009159; dental plaque 1.68 vs. 2.71; RR 0.32; 95% CI: 0.23\u20130.44; and denture plaque 1.60 vs. 2.21; RR 0.55; 95% CI: 0.42\u20130.72).
