Conocimientos, actitudes y prácticas de salud bucal mediante técnica de Feedback en niños de la Escuela Gustavo Darquea Terán de la ciudad de Loja 2018-2019

Education as a strategy in health promotion has become a form of education, which aims to lead the individual and the community to a process of attitude and behavior change, that is why the educational intervention in oral health in children develops favorable attitudes and practices. For this, it is important to promote oral health promotion, applying inputs (feedback) that allow the reinforcement of knowledge, attitudes, and practices at an early age leaving the curative approach in the background. Objective: “Assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of oral health through feedback techniques in children of the School" Gustavo Darquea Terán ". Materials and Methods: Longitudinal section evaluative study, with a sample of 40 children aged 7 to 12 years, to whom the questionnaire of knowledge, attitudes, and practices of oral health were applied, reinforcing these through feedback technique between the evaluation intervals. Results: It was established that there is no normality in the data, both in the results of the post-test knowledge tests, pre-test attitudes and pre-test practices, therefore, the p-value is <0.05 (0.023; 0.028; and, 0.033 respectively). This means that the children improved their knowledge and attitudes in oral health but not their practices significantly. Conclusions: it was established that there is no significant statistical difference between oral education before and after positive reinforcement, in the children participating in this study.
