Interventions/Control_1

Participants will complete seven daily sessions of the 7-day DentalGO web application within 10 days after their initial login, in principle once daily. Each session is expected to take a few minutes to approximately five minutes. Participants will record whether they brushed their teeth that day, read brief educational content about oral health, fluoride, and xylitol, and answer a short quiz. If participants miss a day, they may resume using the application on a subsequent day within the 10-day period.
