The aim of the study was to design and develop a mobile system for better management of children's oral health by using the internet technology. This study was followed in a three-step approach. (1) Design stage: participatory design (including patients, dentists and computer scientists) was taken in order to adapt the system to the clinical practice of dentistry; (2) Development stage: dentists and computer scientists were involved in this stage to develop the system by using internet technology; (3) Usability testing stage: the quality (MARS), usability (SUS) and satisfaction of the system were assessed by children's caregivers. The system contains patient-side app, doctor-side app and Web side program for manager. Children and their caregivers could acquire many useful services through the app, such as oral healthcare education, brushing management, dietary record, online consultation, online appointment, feedback of adverse events. The overall value of SUS was 67.75. The final quality mean score was 3.44 ± 0.95, with the highest mean score of functionality. The majority of caregivers were satisfied with the system. They expressed the system could improve the current medical services and their oral health literacy.
本研究旨在设计和开发一个移动系统，通过互联网技术更好地管理儿童口腔健康。本研究采用三步法进行。（1）设计阶段：采用参与式设计（包括患者、牙医和计算机科学家），以使系统适应牙科临床实践；（2）开发阶段：牙医和计算机科学家参与开发系统，使用互联网技术；（3）可用性测试阶段：通过儿童的照顾者评估系统的质量（MARS）、可用性（SUS）和满意度。该系统包含患者端应用程序、医生端应用程序和管理端的 Web 程序。儿童及其照顾者可以通过应用程序获得许多有用的服务，如口腔保健教育、刷牙管理、饮食记录、在线咨询、在线预约、不良事件反馈。SUS 的总体值为 67.75。最终质量平均得分为 3.44±0.95，功能得分最高。大多数照顾者对该系统感到满意。他们表示该系统可以改善当前的医疗服务和他们的口腔健康素养。
