Furthermore, the number of teeth with caries decreased among family caregivers. It can therefore be recommended that such information and education on oral hygiene be implemented in healthcare systems in general. Furthermore, an interprofessional approach is necessary to promote better oral health in this vulnerable group of older adults.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Trial Registration<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04003493.
