People with disabilities develop more dental disease than the average population and have a harder time accessing and using resources for dental treatment. It is therefore critical to prevent dental problems in this population. This article discusses the development and use of a preventive dentistry training program consisting of a videotape, workbook, instructions for trainers, and pre- and post-tests. The training program was designed to facilitate integration of dental and behavioral information into daily routines. Participants were able to demonstrate that they could learn the information in the training materials using the methodology that was employed. Further work remains to be done to revise and disseminate the materials and to demonstrate that the knowledge that the participants gained can be effectively applied in community care settings.
残疾人比普通人群更容易患牙病，并且在获取和使用牙科治疗资源方面存在更大困难。因此，预防这一人群的牙齿问题至关重要。本文讨论了一个预防牙科培训项目的开发和使用，该项目包括录像带、工作手册、培训师指南以及课前和课后测试。该培训项目旨在促进将牙科和行为信息融入日常工作中。参与者能够证明他们可以使用所采用的方法学习培训材料中的信息。仍有待进一步开展工作，以修订和传播这些材料，并证明参与者所获得的知识能够有效地应用于社区护理环境。
