Background: A simple but effective fones or horizontal scrub method has often been advocated and used among young toddlers. For young infants and others who lack the necessary muscle development for more advanced techniques, the Fones technique is recommended. We've seen that kids who use this technique focus more on the front buccal surfaces of their teeth and ignore the interior surfaces. To solve this issue, a change in methodology is required.
The study's goal is to explain a brushing technique based on the sequence
learning principle, as well as to assess changes in skills after teaching and
practising the technique via a video bio-feedback system.
Methods: The procedure of brushing, from
the dispensing of the paste on the brush to the end of brushing, was video
recorded in a standardised manner for each kid by an expert before and after
the training of the new brushing method for 12 weeks. The skills of data
brushing were collected and quantitatively assessed.
Results: In both the maxillary and mandibular arch, the overall change in
learning skills observed with the new brushing method as compared to the innate
method revealed statistically significant improvement with the new brushing
method (p0.001).
