“…As Foster suggests, behavioral change can be evaluated after 21 days. 17 In terms of the difference in effectiveness between Braille-verbal and tactile-verbal tooth-brushing exercise methods, this study's conclusion was consistent with that of a study by Sabilillah et al 18 who concluded that Dental Braille Education could change blind children's knowledge and attitude. This finding, it is suggested, could be related to Braille text and reading aloud technique in educating blind students.…”

Objective Blind children tend to have poor oral health. Oral health education is needed to reduce the prevalence of dental caries and periodontal diseases among blind children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two tooth brushing exercise methods toward blind children’s knowledge, attitude, behavior, and oral hygiene. Materials and Methods The purposive sampling technique was used in this study on 80 blind children aged between 7 and 16. Children were divided into two groups of 40 children each. In group I, children received the tooth-brushing exercise through the Braille–verbal method, and group II received the tactile–verbal method. Their knowledge, behavior, and attitude were recorded by a questionnaire, and their oral hygiene was assessed during a personal oral examination. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney non-parametric test. Results Differences in effectiveness toward knowledge, attitude, and oral hygiene were found between both methods with the following values: p-value = 0.04 (<0.05), 0.04 (<0.05), and 0.0002 (<0.05). No difference in effectiveness toward behavior was found: p-value 0.30 (>0.05). Conclusion The two tooth-brushing methods could change knowledge, attitude, and oral hygiene in blind children. The tactile–verbal method was more effective than the Braille–verbal method in changing blind children's oral hygiene.

“…Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh singh dkk. pada tahun 2014, menunjukkan buruknya status kesehatan gigi dan mulut pada anak berkebutuhan khusus disebabkan oleh kurangnya pemahaman dan penguasaan mengenai teknik praktik kebersihan gigi dan mulut (Sabilillah et al, 2016). I Gede Dewa berdasarkan penelitianya memberikan saran bahwa penyakit gigi dan mulut seperti karies yang diakibatkan oleh kurangnya kebersihan gigi dan mulut dapat dicegah dengan dilakukanya penyuluhan kesehatan gigi (Prasada, 2016).…”

Introduction: Children with visual impairment are more susceptible to acquiring pathologies in the oral cavity than the general population, the most prevalent of which are dental caries, inflammation of the gums, and loss of the structures that support the teeth. The oral health care needs of visually impaired children are needed. Purpose: To provide a better understanding that can guide ophthalmologists about the importance of comprehensive dental care for children with visual impairments. Review: Factors that respond to the need for oral health care in visually impaired children are lack of ability to carry out oral hygiene habits, lack of knowledge on the part of health personnel to provide services adapted to the needs of this population, absence of promotion and education programs, and lack of public policies on oral health. This article discusses the dental aspects of visual impairment, its implications for obtaining dental care, associated oral conditions, and medical complications. Conclusion: It is imperative to prioritize the implementation of preventive methods and oral health education among visually impaired children. The function of the dentist is significant in the management of children with such conditions. Ophthalmologists should collaborate with dentists who possess a strong drive to provide care for children with special needs such as visual impairment and will discover that this endeavor offers significant opportunities to be an enriching experience.
