“…These findings were in accordance with previous studies by Kashyap et al [ 10 ], which showed that game-based education (i.e., crosswords and quiz with a PowerPoint presentation) proved very effective in improving oral health knowledge. Our findings are in accordance with those of Sharma et al [ 19 ], Malik et al [ 3 ], and Maheswari et al [ 20 ], who used game-based OHE to improve knowledge, health behaviour, and practices. The studies by Sinor et al [ 8 ] and Anwar et al [ 25 ] also reported that a cartoon-animated audiovisual aid significantly promoted knowledge regarding oral hygiene maintenance, in comparison to those who attended the conventional oral health talk.…”

“…Improved plaque scores were sustained over a three month period, proving that the effects of the IGVP learning technique persisted over time. This finding agreed with studies conducted by Kashyap et al [ 10 ] and Malik et al [ 3 ], which showed that implementing crossword and quiz game-based OHE programmes resulted in a significant decrease in plaque scores. Similarly, Aljafari et al [ 28 ] reported that implementing video game-based OHE programmes resulted in a significant decrease in plaque scores.…”

“…Among the studies included in that review, it is unclear if oral health education by itself lead to improved knowledge or if it was the combination of oral health education with supervised tooth brushing, use of fluoridated toothpaste and the involvement of caregivers. Among children younger than 6 years improved knowledge following oral health education using age-appropriate materials was observed in few studies where shows and games helped retain oral health information better than the traditional didactic approach [24,25].…”
