Özet:

Determining the levels of oral health, as well as the quality of dental health, are the keystone upon which oral health conceptions are built. This study aimed to assess teethbrushing techniques practices, using technical and physical model, in order to clarify the learning way of teeth brushing in children and pre-adults ages. Materials and Methods: Data through a group of 23 participants, males and females of different ages, has been recorded by the  proposed electronic toothbrushing equipment of 3 types axes pathways of  X- Y- Z. Detection, of the Before and After training Experiments, and been processed by MATLAB to plot codes for the three axes. Results: Through this study, most of the parameter values, such as the Mean Difference Between Amplitudes MAV (6.00), Wilson Amplitude WAMP (179.419), and Average Amplitude Coupling AAC (1.270) exhibit decreasing from the before to the after experiments, as the Variance VAR (78.829), and shown the mean differences between the amplitudes and the amplitudes of the signals rate, as the Mean Frequency MNF and Median Frequency MDF (0.071, 0.021 respectively) show the change in frequency components. Farthermore the average over all the epochs lengths AVG between the two experiments, is in the range of 75% in aspects of movement amplitude reduction. Conclusion: The results from a dentist's observation, demonstrated what the acceptable or nonacceptable brushing method. Furthermore, analytical values show us that person learns the movements of teeth brushing technique, and from his /her medical observations, we can see clearly the success of the method we offer.
