AIMS
The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude, and behavior of school children towards oral health.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN
Descriptive study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
School children (n=700) aged between 10 to 14 years in a Davangere school were recruited into this study. The subjects completed a questionnaire that aimed to evaluate young school children's behavior, knowledge, and perception of their oral health and dental treatment.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
The results were statistically analysed and percentage was calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
The participant oral hygiene habits (such as tooth brushing) were found to be irregular, and parent role in the oral hygiene habits of their children was limited. The study population showed higher awareness of caries than periodontal conditions. The children in this study also recognized the importance of oral health. The results of this study indicate that Comprehensive oral health educational programs for both children and their parents are required to achieve this goal.

目的
本研究旨在评估学龄儿童对口腔健康的知识、态度和行为。
设置与设计
描述性研究。
材料与方法
招募了达万盖雷一所学校10至14岁的700名学龄儿童参与本研究。受试者完成了一份旨在评估低龄学龄儿童口腔健康行为、知识以及对牙科治疗看法的问卷。
统计分析
对结果进行统计学分析并计算百分比。
结果与结论
发现参与者的口腔卫生习惯（如刷牙）不规律，且父母在孩子口腔卫生习惯方面的作用有限。研究人群对龋齿的认知高于牙周状况。本研究中的儿童也认识到口腔健康的重要性。本研究结果表明，需要为儿童及其父母开展全面的口腔健康教育项目以实现这一目标。如何引用本文：Vishwanathaiah S. 达万盖雷学龄儿童的知识、态度和口腔健康实践。《国际临床儿科牙科学杂志》2016年；9(2):172 - 176。
