Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, görme engeli olan çocuklarda Dental Braille Eğitiminin (DBE) çocukların oral sağlık ve hijyen

ile ilgili bilgi ve tutumlarına olan etkisini analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmada

pre-post test yönetemi kullanılmıştır. Çocuklar eğitim öncesi ve sonrası 21. günde değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlar:

Bu çalışma, görme engelli 12 çocuğa uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre eğitim öncesi ve sonrası

çocukların bilgi düzeyi (Z = -3217 ve p = 0.001, p> 0.05) ile tutumları (Z = -2724 ve p = 0.006, p> 0.05) arasında

istatiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır. Tartışma: Görme engelli çocuklara Braille yöntemi ile verilen

eğitim çocukların oral sağlık ve hijyen ile ilgili bilgi ve tutumları üzerinde anlamlı değişikliğe neden olmamıştır.

Bu popülasyonda oral sağlık ve hijyen eğitiminin başarısını etkileyen faktörlerin incelendiği ileri çalışmaların

planlanması önerilmektedir.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the influence of Dental Braille Education (DBE) on the oral health and

hygiene knowledge and attitude of children with visual impairment. Material and Methods: Pre and post test

research design was used. Dental Braille Education (DBE) was given to a sample and then evaluated again on

day 21. The results were compared by statisctical analysis. Results: This study was conducted on 12 child

with visual impairment. No statistically significant difference were found between the oral health and hygiene

knowledge (Z = -3217 and p = 0.001, p> 0.05) and the attitudes (Z = -2724 and p = 0.006, p> 0.05) of the sample.

Conclusion: It can be concluded that the DBE education did not change the maintenance of oral health and improve

the status of oral hygiene among children with visual disability. Further studies investigating the factors

which may effect DBE education among children with visual impairment must be planned.
