Abstract
Objective: to investigate if experiential, pactice-based oral health education for 5-10 year old childrens would improve children’s oral health behavior. Data were collected before, immediately and 2-weeks after a practice based, experiential (N=106) or traditional (Control group:N=117) educational intervention. Experiential, practice-based oral hygiene-related instructions affected children's oral health-related behavior positively.
