The Global burden of Disease Study 2017, estimated that oral diseases affect close to 3.5 billion people worldwide. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the oral health status, unmet oral health needs and oral impact of daily life among the permanent residents in Tiruvallur district. Materials and Methods: The WHO Oral health assessment form (2013) was used to record the oral health status.
