Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of verbal and video-based oral hygiene instructions on the oral health parameters in patients of different age groups. 202 patients in 6-9 and 10-12 aged (n=101 and n=101, respectively) were included in the study protocol. Before oral hygiene instructions, baseline oral g of all patients were determined using Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHI-S). Within each age group, approximately half of the participants randomly assigned to verbal (n=50 for 6-9 ages, n=51 for 10-12 ages) and video-based OHI (n=51 for 6-9 ages, n=50 for 10-12 ages). Patients were re-called for after 30 days and final OHI-S scores were recorded.
