Purpose:
To explore a more effective comprehensive prevention and treatment model for children's oral health by constructing a health network platform that integrates medical information evaluation, interaction, monitoring, and prevention with oral health management as the core.
Methods:
The database of Shaoxing Children's Oral Health Management Network Platform was established. The oral health survey and information entry of 7 042 second-grade children in primary school in Yuecheng District from 2021 to 2022 were conducted. An open randomized controlled clinical trial was designed, with 3 472 of 7 042 children randomly assigned to the platform management group and 3 570 to the control group. One year later, oral examinations were conducted again on two groups of children, and the correlation between oral examination indicators between the two groups was statistically analyzed using SPSS 25.0 software package.
Results:
There was significant difference between the two groups in the mean number of newly added deciduous caries decayed- missing-filled teeth(dmft), deciduous caries decayed teeth (dt), deciduous caries missing teeth(mt), and deciduous caries filled teeth(ft) after one year(P<0.05). The newly added rates of caries, gingival bleeding, calculus detection, and malocclusion between the two groups were lower in the platform group than in the control group, with a significant difference(P<0.05).
Conclusions:
To the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, intelligence has become more and more indispensable and important. Building a network platform for oral health is an effective way to promote oral health level.
