Abstract

Introduction: Oral hygiene Education based on bad breath (i. e., Halitosis) can be more effective than other Educational methods because bad breath is considered a motivational tool for the improvement of oral health-associated behaviors. The purpose of this study was to compare hygiene Education to different Educational topics and effectiveness of these methods. Materials and Methods: A total of 136 school children within the age range of 9-10 years in Yazd, Iran, were randomly divided into three groups, namely 1) Education based on bad breath, 2) traditional Education based on caries and gum disease, and 3) control group receiving only oral and dental hygiene Education. The Plaque index, modified gingival index, and bad breath were measured before giving hygiene instruction and 1 and 6 months later. Paired and independent t-tests, McNemar’ s test, and Wilcoxon test were used to analyze the data. Results: The findings of the present study showed that there was no significant improvement in the Plaque index in the control groups of both genders in both follow-ups. In the 1-month follow-up, the modified gingiva index in group 1 was significantly less than those reported for the other two groups (P=0. 029). There was a significant decrease in the prevalence and severity of bad breath in group 1, compared to those reported at the initiation of the study (female participants: P=0. 003; male participants: P=0. 000). Conclusion: Oral hygiene Education based on bad breath was more effective, long-lasting, and faster than the other two Educational methods.
