This study examined the impact of web-based education on enhancing mothers' awareness of oral health care for children aged 9 and 12 years. It focused on the crucial role of mothers in educating about oral health to prevent dental diseases and reduce long-term healthcare costs.
Mothers were divided into three groups: control, intervention with a web system, and intervention with a brochure. Over one month, their knowledge about their children's oral health was assessed before and after the intervention.
Data were analyzed using parametric t-tests and non-parametric Mann-Whitney U tests. The findings indicated a significant increase in parental awareness in both intervention groups.
It is recommended that parent education be done using web-based systems or mobile apps, which are better choices due to greater accessibility and interactivity.
本研究旨在探讨基于网络的教育对提高母亲对 9 岁和 12 岁儿童口腔保健意识的影响。重点关注母亲在口腔健康教育方面的关键作用,以预防牙科疾病和降低长期医疗保健成本。
将母亲分为三组:对照组、基于网络系统的干预组和基于宣传册的干预组。在一个月的时间里,在干预前后评估了他们对子女口腔健康的知识。
使用参数 t 检验和非参数曼-惠特尼 U 检验对数据进行分析。结果表明,两个干预组的家长意识都有显著提高。
建议使用基于网络的系统或移动应用程序进行家长教育,因为它们更具可及性和交互性,是更好的选择。
