Purpose
Educators can also contribute to the prevention of early childhood caries (ECC)
by educating children about oral diseases and hygiene practices. The aim of this
study was to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of pre-school teachers
concerning oral and dental health in Trabzon.
Subjects and methods
The study was carried out with 226 pre-school teachers in the city center using
a self-administered questionnaire to evaluate their knowledge, attitudes, and
behaviors concerning the oral and dental health of children.
Results
Only 29.8% of the respondents had a prior dental education. Although 83% of the
teachers said that regular visits to the dentist were effective for caries prevention,
only 13.2% said that they made regular visits to a dentist. Approximately 65.8%
of the teachers agreed that fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and 35.1% of the
teachers said that there were oral health activities in their schools. Additionally,
74.6% of teachers said that they would participate in dental education about
children’s oral health in the future.
Conclusion
Preventive dental health program could be implemented including the proper
behaviors related to the importance and treatability of primary teeth, first tooth
cleaning, dental visits, the use of fluoride toothpaste, and oral hygiene into the preschool
teachers’ undergraduate education programs in the future. This program
should be repeated at certain intervals for the prevention of ECC.
