For the prevention of oral health problems, health education of schoolchildren has a vital role. The oral health status of the children can be improved if health promotion in schools is conducted in a comprehensive and interesting manner.
Effectivity of game-based oral health education over conventional on the oral health-related knowledge and oral hygiene status among 8- to 12-year-old schoolchildren.
A total of 150 children aged 8 to 12 years were divided into two groups. A pretest evaluation of their knowledge regarding oral health and the estimation of plaque index was carried out. Children in group I were given oral health education through PowerPoint presentation once daily for 7 days. Children in group II were educated through the play method (i.e., crosswords and quiz with PowerPoint presentation). The evaluations regarding oral health-related knowledge and plaque scores were recorded on postintervention 1 and 3 months.
In group II, high knowledge scores of 10.32 and 9.98 were obtained by the on postintervention 1 and 3 months respectively. In both the groups, there was a significant increase in good oral hygiene scores and a significant decrease in plaque scores on postintervention 1 and 3 months follow-up, but much better scores were seen in group II compared to group I at both the follow-ups.
Implementation of crossword game-based oral health education program is an easy and effective aid for teaching oral health instructions and preventing oral diseases in children as the knowledge scores of children increased considerably when the game-based teaching intervention was used.

对于预防口腔健康问题而言，对学童的健康教育至关重要。如果以全面且有趣的方式在学校开展健康促进活动，儿童的口腔健康状况就能得到改善。
对比基于游戏的口腔健康教育与传统口腔健康教育对8至12岁学童口腔健康相关知识及口腔卫生状况的效果。
总共150名8至12岁的儿童被分为两组。对他们的口腔健康知识进行了预测试评估，并估算了菌斑指数。第一组儿童通过PowerPoint演示文稿每天进行一次口腔健康教育，持续7天。第二组儿童通过游戏方式（即填字游戏和带有PowerPoint演示文稿的问答竞赛）接受教育。在干预后1个月和3个月记录有关口腔健康相关知识和菌斑分数的评估情况。
在第二组中，干预后1个月和3个月分别获得了10.32和9.98的高知识分数。在两组中，干预后1个月和3个月随访时口腔卫生良好分数均显著增加，菌斑分数显著降低，但在两次随访中，第二组的分数均比第一组要好得多。
实施基于填字游戏的口腔健康教育计划是一种简单有效的辅助手段，可用于教授儿童口腔健康知识并预防口腔疾病，因为在采用基于游戏的教学干预时，儿童的知识分数有了显著提高。
