In our project, which we planned to emphasize the importance of oral and dental health in children, increase their awareness and teach them correct oral and dental care, we determined our target audience within the framework of the topic we determined together with our teacher and our group, and prepared a presentation explaining appropriate oral and dental health to them and the knowledge and awareness level of the children before the presentation. We prepared survey questions for them to fill in to measure their results. The next week, we went to the relevant institution and made our presentation to give oral and dental health education to children. We repeated the survey one month after the training to evaluate the impact of the training we provided on children's knowledge, awareness and attitudes. After our presentation, we learned that a few of the children went to the dentist for an examination, and many of them have now started brushing their teeth correctly and more carefully. According to the survey results, we concluded that our training had a positive impact on children's oral and dental care, hygiene and health, and that children's knowledge and awareness about this issue increased.
