Abstract
Major depressive disorder affects millions of adults worldwide. It impacts most activities of daily living, including oral hygiene practices and use of dental resources. Recent studies have highlighted the association between depression and oral health behaviors and oral health status. Biological mechanisms include the association between depression and the inhibition of immune function, as well as the discovery of the association between anti-depressant medication and the growth of specific bacteria.
