Effect of Repeated Directing Tooth-brushing Education on Plaque Control

Abstract: Educational object of this study was patients who visited H-dental clinic in D-Metropolitan City. It was investigated on the general character, subjective health condition, oral knowledge, oral recognition and oral practice of patients(experimental group 134 subjects and control group 110 subjects) who were educated to repeated directing tooth-brushing through questionnaire. For understanding the degree of actual oral practice, plaque control score was analyzed by the O'Leary index. The results of this study a… Show more

“…Such result coincided with study results of Choi and Park (2008), Eom et al (2009) and Son (2003) that investigated on plaque control score by applying O'Leary Plaque Index evaluation method. Moreover, results were similar to previous researches (Chae, Kim, Jang, Kim, & Lee, 2009;Eom et al;Jo, 2010) that showed that www.kan.or.kr plaque control score increased to average of 70 points after completion of education. Above all, in this study, the improvement range of plaque control score being average of 37.62 points was higher than increase of 32 points in previous studies.…”

“…Plaque control scores measured by using O'Leary plaque index for degree of stain of 4 sides of the teeth (root area, top area, anterior area, posterior area) when all teeth are dyed with teeth stainers (Jo, 2010). In this study, we used teeth stainers and O'Leary plaque index to measure plaque control score.…”

“…This is similar to the result that in the preceding paper [7,8], the rate of discontinuation of maintenance periodontal treatment patients during the first year was the highest. Many researchers [5,9,10] argued the importance of systematic oral health education and repetitive tooth brushing lessons as a way to induce a change in an individual's attitude toward oral care. However, 50.7 percent of the total subjects were stopped management within three months.…”

“…Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by the host’s reaction to the biofilm formed on the surface of the teeth, which becomes hard dental calculus after some time, destroys the alveolar bone, and eventually causes tooth loss [ 4 ]. Therefore, to prevent the progression of periodontal disease, it is necessary to manage biofilms and dental calculus [ 5 ].…”
