Protocol summary

Study aim
1. To examine oral health related quality of life among 8-10 year old schoolchildren in the Wasit Governorate- Iraq. 2. To assess the efficacy and the cost of preventive regimens used in both intensified and basic intervention groups.
Design
Controlled randomized Clinical trial with parallel groups, phase 2 on 372 participants, single center
Settings and conduct
Children from two schools (one boy school and one girl school randomly selected) will be allocated into basic intervention group and the children from other two schools (one boy and one girl ) will be allocated into intensified intervention group . Parents of children in clinical trial phase of this study will receive letter in which the study design will explain and they will ask to give their informed consent. Follow-up examinations of caries increment, extent of carious lesion using ICDAS index according to Braga etal (2009) (16) at 3, 6 months for children in both groups. Children will be asked in each follow up about if they wash their mouth after each eating.

Primary outcomes

1

Description
Caries progression
Timepoint
Before intervention, 3, and 6 months after intervention
Method of measurement
International caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) according to Braga et al. (2009) will be used in clinical trial phase . D 0 - Sound D1 - First visual change in enamel (white spot opacity first visible change only after air drying: white, brown). D2 - Distinct visual change in enamel (white spot opacity distinct visible change without air- drying: white, brown). D3 -Localized enamel breakdown due to caries with no visible dentin (localized enamel breakdown surface integrity loss) D4-Non-cavitated surface with underlying dark shadow from dentin (underlying dark shadow +/- surface integrity loss) D5 - Distinct cavity with visible dentin. D6 -Extensive distinct cavity with visible dentin.

Secondary outcomes

1

Description
Caries increment, and Cost – effectiveness of interventions
Timepoint
Before intervention, 3 and 6 months after intervention
Method of measurement
Decay surfaces (DS, dt ) according to WHO (2013). Criteria and codes of dental caries: 0 (A). Sound tooth 1 (B). Decayed tooth 2 (C). Filled tooth with decay .Dental caries indices: tooth (DT, dt) and surface levels (DS, ds) carious lesions were registered for all surfaces of each tooth included. The Decayed component (D) included all teeth with codes 1 or 2. Costs of preventive regimen will be examined from the perspective of a service provider:1. Direct medical cost ( materials and equipment, capital cost and time spent by service provider)2. Indirect cost (overhead cost)

Intervention groups

1

Description
Basic intervention group (control group) (standard self-care and oral hygiene practices such as brushing two times a day using fluoridated dentifrices, using dental floss, eating appropriate diet and regular dental visit by oral hygiene instruction, printed material distribution and incentive package providing ) and intensified intervention group (professional applications of preventive regimen without drilling procedures include fluoride varnishes and SDF as well as oral health education)
