METHODS Videos of oral hygiene instructions in Arabic sign language were produced under the supervision of a periodontist. Fifty male subjects above 18 years of age were chosen randomly from different deaf schools in Jazan, Saudi Arabia and divided into two groups as follows: Group 1 received printed booklets with oral hygiene instructions, and Group 2 received videos of the same instructions in Arabic sign language. Knowledge regarding oral health and hygiene practice was evaluated with the aid of a questionnaire before and after 4 weeks. RESULTS The estimated marginal mean of the knowledge regarding oral hygiene in Group 1 was 3.37, which was slightly increased to 4.40 after 4 weeks of general instructions. The estimated marginal mean in Group 2 was 3.70 before the distribution of the videos, which was significantly increased to 11 after 4 weeks (P |
