description Objectives This study was aimed at assessing the knowledge of oral health and training needs of health workers in geriatric nursing homes. Background Providing daily oral care to dependent elderly people is the best way to prevent oral disorders. Because there are no dental hygienists in France, health workers play an important role in providing oral care in nursing homes and should have correct and adequate knowledge. Materials and methods Health workers from 8 geriatric nursing homes in Puy de Dôme (France) completed a 58‐item questionnaire. Oral health knowledge regarding dental decay, periodontal diseases, oral hygiene and denture care was assessed. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed. Results A total of 99 health workers took part in the study. The total mean score was significantly different if health workers had received training in oral disorders (49.3 ± 11.7 vs. 43.9 ± 10; p
