        Introduction: A growing number of people are expressing concern about breath odor, so it is important that dental hygienists have basic knowledge on the etiology and treatment of halitosis. Objective: The general level of awareness of this condition is unclear and quantification is important in targeting specific educational resources at this group. Methods: We performed a questionnaire survey on 31 dental hygienists of Fukuoka Dental College Medical and Dental Hospital. We also examined how their job experience affected their knowledge and awareness of halitosis treatment. The subjects were divided into two groups. Results: “Experienced” and “less experienced”, having five or more years and less than five years of experience, respectively. Both groups of dental hygienists had encountered oral malodor in patients during dental treatment, and many were consulted specifically regarding this condition. The hygienists generally felt competent in explaining the causes of oral malodor but less felt able to describe the treatments. The “less experienced” group had particularly low confidence in providing this information. However, more than 78% of the “less experienced” dental hygienists believed that they should actively participate in treating halitosis, although fewer of the “experienced” group felt that this was part of their role. Conclusion: From these results, we conclude that although dental hygienists are aware of the importance of halitosis treatment, their knowledge and ability to deliver this therapy varies relative to their level of experience.
