简要总结
The aim of this study An augmented reality (AR) simulation toothbrushing machine was developed to train proper brushing technique for children. The investigators aimed to evaluate the effects of AR brushing machine on knowledge of dental clearing skill, self-efficacy and dental plaque control in elementary schoolchildren in Taiwan.
详细描述
A quasi-experimental design was conducted; ten intervention schools (AR group) and ten comparison schools were selected from elementary schools. Overall, grade 3-6 students in the AR group (n = 290) and the traditional group (n = 311), respectively. Students in the AR group received a two-time repeated AR-based training for 30 minutes at two-week intervals. Students in the CG received traditional classroom-based teaching. Baseline and follow-ups information was collected using dental plaque examinations and questionnaires. The generalized estimating equations(GEE) were used to evaluate the outcomes between two groups over time.

研究组 & 干预措施
AR group
Student in AR group received a two-time repeated AR-based training for 30 minutes at two-week intervals.
干预措施: AR-toothbrush machine (Device)
traditional group
Students in the traditional group received a two-time repeated 10-minute lesson regarding proper toothbrushing skills in the classroom at two-week intervals.
干预措施: Teach proper brushing skills (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Self-efficacy
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 4-week after intervention
2 questions , e.g: I feel confident.Response 1 = strongly disagree 2 = Disagree 3 = Normal 4 = agree 5 = strongly agree
Plaque Control Record (PCR)
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 4-week after intervention
Each tooth is divided into six surfaces, and the PCR record is calculated ( range 0-100% )
Skill of Toothbrushing
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 4-week after intervention
5 questions , e.g: The toothbrush is pressed against the gums at a 45-degree angle.Response multiple choice
Plaque Control Record (PCR)
时间窗: Change from Baseline at 2-week after intervention
Each tooth is divided into six surfaces, and the PCR record is calculated ( range 0-100% )
