This research work is based on the comparison of the modified Bass and Stillman brushing techniques in children from the educational center "MI FUTURO" to demonstrate which is more effective in removing dental bacterial plaque. First, the Green and Vermillon oral hygiene indices were performed on both groups, and the sample was taken immediately. The modified Bass brushing technique was taught to one group and the Stillman technique to the other group. A toothbrush and toothpaste were assigned to each child to practice the learned technique, and the oral hygiene index was reassessed after five days. Upon analyzing the results obtained, there was no significant difference in hygiene before applying the modified Bass and Stillman techniques (p = 0.805). In reference to the comparison between modified Bass and Stillman immediately after applying the technique (0 days), no significant difference in hygiene was found (p = 0.483). Furthermore, in the comparison between modified Bass and Stillman five days after applying the techniques, no significant difference in hygiene was found (p = 1).
