The Scale Oral Health Knowledge for 5-8 Age Children was used in the evaluation of education. In the four-weektraining program, pre-test with scale, oral and dental health visual training presentations, parent education, healthy food packagedistribution, creative drama training, toothbrush and paste dissipation and post-test with scale were applied.Results: The scale developed consisted of 10 items and the KR-20 reliability was calculated as 0.71 and the internal consistencycoefficient was calculated as 0.70. In the results of the study, there was a significant difference in favor of the last test in theexperimental group (z = 4.46, p <05).Conclusion: The Scale Oral Health Knowledge for 5-8 Age Children is a valid and reliable scale. The “Multi-Component Oral HealthEducation Programme” is an evaluable, necessary and effective program.
