“…Manrique, Malpartida-Carrillo, & Arriola-Guillén, 2019). It was reported in another study that the amount of plaque decreased with the correct toothbrushing technique (Ilyas, Ashraf, & Jamil, 2018). Pabel, Freitag, Hrasky, Zapf, and Wiegand (2018) reported that the amount of plaque in children decreased significantly with the education provided using a model.…”

This study aimed to investigate the effect of playful learning interventions (with toys, visual and auditory sources) on appropriate toothbrushing behaviors and the amount of accumulated plaque in preschool children.Design and methods: The study was carried out as a parallel-group, randomized and controlled study during the period October-December 2018, with 100 preschool children. The preschool students were randomly assigned to an intervention and a control group. The children in the intervention group were given instructions on how to brush their teeth while the children in the control group were not given any instruction outside of what they had learned in preschool. The playful learning interventions that were carried out consisted of three rounds of meetings designed to educate the children about adopting appropriate toothbrushing behaviors. Results: The study groups were well matched at baseline (p = .537) and the intervention group showed statistically significant improvements in toothbrushing (p = .001) and plaque control (p = .001) following the intervention in comparison to the controls. Additionally, while the amount of plaque decreased in the children in the intervention group (p = .001), plaque increased in the control group after the intervention (p = .001). Conclusions: This study showed that after the playful learning interventions carried out with the preschool children, appropriate toothbrushing behaviors were acquired and there was a decrease in the amount of plaque. Application to practice: Nurses who work with preschool children could use toys and songs as effective and entertaining nursing interventions for developing correct toothbrushing behaviors.

“…The first group was given 0.2 % hyaluronic acid gel (Gengigel; Ricerfarma, Milan, Lombardy, Italy) and the second group was given 0.2% chlorhexidine gel (Denta Perio CJSC "VITEX" Republic of Belarus,) twice daily after they had scaling and polishing. The patients instructed to brush their teeth with the modified bass method 13 and randomly (by coin toss) were assigned to each treatment group then placed 1ml of the gel over the gingival surface, by advising them to take 1.5 cm of the gel which was found to correspond to 1ml gel. After tooth brushing; eating was avoided at least one hour after gel application.…”

Background and objectives: Chemotherapeutic agents have the potential to inhibit plaque growth, reduce gingivitis and improve oral health beyond tooth brushing alone. The aim of this study is to compare the therapeutic effectiveness of 0.2% hyaluronic acid-containing gel (Gengigel) with a 0.2% chlorhexidine containing gel effect, in the treatment of plaque induced gingivitis. Methods: This cross-sectional analytical case control study involved 150 generally healthy patients, age ranging 20-40 years, with gingivitis. The patients were divided in two groups, after scaling and polishing, 75 patients in each. The first group was given 0.2% hyaluronic acid containing gel and the second group was given 0.2 % chlorhexidine containing gel. Clinical examination, which included bleeding on probing, plaque index at the baseline, after 7 days and after 21 days were calculated. Antimicrobial properties of both gels in the saliva were measured by agar diffusion method. Results: No significant difference was detected between the two groups regarding the mean ranks of the Plaque index difference after a week (chlorhexidine group = 0.81, hyaluronic acid group = 0.89) and after three weeks (0.58, 0.54 respectively). The mean of the difference in Bleeding index after one week in the chlorhexidine group (39.44) were significantly higher than those (32.87) of the group of hyaluronic acid, But the difference was not significant after three weeks (37.40 and 37.27 respectively). The chlorhexidine group inhibition zone (19.2) was significantly higher than the hyaluronic acid group (10.6) Conclusions: in this study, the adjunctive use of 0.2 percent hyaluronic acid gel is comparable to 0.2 percent chlorhexidine gel for gingivitis treatment.

Background: Brushing teeth to maintain dental and oral health can be done by various methods. The proper brushing method is very important in achieving dental and oral hygiene. One of them is brushing teeth with the bass method. The bass method is one of the recommended brushing methods in dentistry. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of dental health education using video media on how to brush teeth with the Bass technique on the knowledge of brushing teeth in school children. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample in this study was taken by purposive sampling as many as 54 children aged 9-12 years. The research was conducted at the Al Istiqomah Mosque TPA, Sumberagung Village, Moyudan District, Sleman Regency. The research instrument used a questionnaire about brushing teeth. Dental health education in the intervention group used video media brushing teeth with bass technique, while in the control group used images media. Data analysis used descriptive analysis and independent t-test to compare the difference in knowledge scores of the treatment group and the control group. Results: the mean value of knowledge in the intervention group before was 11.19+1.54 and after was 12.11+1.33. The mean value of knowledge before in the control group was 11.24 +1.58 and after 11.44+1.22. The results of the knowledge dependent t-test in the intervention group were p=0.040 and in the control group were p=0.326. The results of the independent t-test were obtained p = 0.038. Conclusion: Video media is more effective in increasing tooth brushing knowledge than image media for school-age children Keywords: Video media, image media, tooth brushing knowledge, bass technique, school age children
