Abstract
Objective & Method: To compare the knowledge, attitude, and behavior for oral health between university students receiving a semester of oral health class as a selective course and those not.
Results: A questionnaire was administered to 458 students who took a class and 484 students not exposed to the oral health education. The data were collected and compared. The cognitive domain score was higher in the educated group than in non-educated group. The affective domain was evinced in more tooth brushing time and in tooth brushing method in the educated group than in non-educated group (cognitive domain: 0.73±0.03, 0.33±0.02) (affective domain: 0.40±0.15, 0.22±0.16). In the psychomotor domain, the level was higher in frequency of dental visits and in the sorts of the auxiliary oral hygiene devices. Educational efficiency, measured by interest in oral health education, was higher in the educated group than in non educated group (psychomotor domain: 0.43±0.03, 0.30±0.21) (educational efficiency: 3.91±0.82, 3.37±1.01). Promotion of oral health measured by symptoms over 6 months was no different between the educated group and non educated group (3.81±1.09, 3.85±1.00).
Conclusion: It was recommended that the oral health class be opened as a selective course in most universities. By developing the proper educational content this effort will promote interest and motivation towards oral health for university students.
