Evaluating Methods of Dental Health Instructions on the Oral Health Indices of 12-18-year-old Patients With Fixed Orthodontics
Evaluating Methods of Dental Health Instructions on the Oral Health Indices of 12-18-year-old Patients With Fixed Orthodontics Referring to the Orthodontic Department and Clinic of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, A Randomized Clinical Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which type of oral health education works best to help 12-18-year-old participants with fixed orthodontic appliances (braces) keep their mouths healthy. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Which method of oral hygiene instruction-video-based, written, or face-to-face education-is most effective in improving oral health?
Do these education methods help lower dental plaque and gum inflammation during orthodontic treatment?
Researchers will compare the three groups of participants who receive different types of oral hygiene training to see which method leads to the best oral health results.
Participants will:
Receive one of three types of oral hygiene instruction (video, written, or in-person).
Continue their regular orthodontic care and brushing routine.
Have their oral health checked at different times during the study to measure changes in plaque and gum health.
The study hopes to identify the most effective and practical way to teach young orthodontic patients to keep their teeth and gums healthy while wearing braces.

실험적: Face-to-face Oral Hygiene Instruction
Participants receive traditional chairside oral hygiene instruction delivered verbally by a trained dentist or oral health educator.
Instructions include proper toothbrushing technique, use of fluoride toothpaste, interdental cleaning, and care of orthodontic appliances.
|
Participants receive standardized oral hygiene instruction delivered verbally by a trained dental professional at baseline.
|
|
실험적: Video-Based Oral Hygiene Instruction
Participants receive oral hygiene instruction using a video and visual demonstration on toothbrushing, interdental cleaning, and care of orthodontic appliances.
|
Participants view a standardized educational video demonstrating proper toothbrushing, interdental cleaning, and care for fixed orthodontic appliances.
The video includes animations and real-life demonstrations to ensure consistent delivery of information.
|
|
실험적: Pamphlet-based Oral Hygiene Instruction
Participants receive oral hygiene instruction through a printed educational pamphlet containing text and illustrations about proper toothbrushing technique, interdental cleaning, use of fluoride toothpaste, and care of orthodontic appliances.

Change in Plaque Index (PI)
기간: Baseline and 4 weeks after intervention
|
The Plaque Index (PI) will be measured using the Silness and Löe method to assess the level of dental plaque accumulation.
The outcome represents the change in PI scores from baseline to 4-week follow-up among participants in the three intervention groups (verbal, pamphlet, video).
Lower scores indicate improved oral hygiene status.
The measure evaluates the effectiveness of each instructional method in reducing plaque accumulation in adolescents with fixed orthodontic appliances.
