Increased knowledge through video-based dental health promotion: exploring the impact of new habits adaptation

Abstract

Education is a key factor that imparts knowledge essential for keeping pace with advancements in science and technology. One viable approach for delivering dental health education, particularly in the context of tooth brushing, is through the utilization of videos. Videos make it easier to remember and comprehend lessons as they engage multiple senses. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge enhancement achieved through the use of dental health promotion videos. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a quantitative approach, specifically a pre-test and post-test control group design. The sample, comprising 60 students, was selected through purposive sampling, wherein samples were deliberately chosen based on specific considerations. The investigation aimed to evaluate the impact of dental health promotion by utilizing online methods with videos during the adaptation period to new habits.
