This study aimed to assess the knowledge of nursing students at Sumandeep Vidyapeeth regarding geriatric oral health. All nursing students participated, including both MSc and BSc students. Knowledge was evaluated using a validated questionnaire across three domains: oral conditions, indicators of a healthy mouth, and necessary oral care products/agents. Participants' responses were scored, with correct answers receiving points, and scores were categorized as adequate or inadequate based on a set threshold. The results indicated that most students demonstrated adequate knowledge in these domains, with a few knowledge gaps observed, particularly among BSc students in oral conditions and MSc students in necessary oral care products. The study concluded that while nursing students had generally adequate knowledge of geriatric oral health, significant gaps still existed in specific areas, although education level did not significantly affect the overall knowledge.
