ABSTRACT: Oral health is a key indicator of overall health, well-being and quality of life. Awareness related to dental health is important to maintain optimum oral hygiene. The aim of the present study was to compare the oral health-related awareness among dental students and students of other disciplines. The survey comprised 20 questions which were asked using a web-based anonymous questionnaire. A total of 370 students (218 dental students and 152 students of other disciplines) were estimated for research. Dental students constitute a higher awareness of self-reliant oral hygiene than the students of other disciplines.
