Összefoglaló szövege

Introduction: The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of oral-health promotion programs (OHPPs) aiming to improve children’s knowledge of favorable oral health behavior to lower decayed/-missing/-filled teeth (DMFT) while reducing the financial cost on health institutions.
Method: An electronic search was performed in seven databases. Studies were restricted to human interventions published in English. The search study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, and the risk of bias was assessed based on the Drummonds Checklist. A total of 1072 references were found. Among these, 19 full texts were included. Most studies had a strong quality.
Results: The overall pooled impact of OHPPs estimates children suffering from DMFT /S to have 81% lower odds of participating in OHPP (95% CI 61–90%, I2: 98.3%,p=0). Furthermore, the program was shown to be effective at lowering the cost in 97 out of 100 OHPPs (95% CI 89–99%, I2: 99%,p=0). Three subgroups analyses (age groups, study countries,studies of the last five years) were performed to evaluate the influence modification on the pooled effect.
Conclusion: A comprehensive analysis of the OHPPs confirmed a reduction effect on child DMFT, hence,lowering the financial burden of dental-care treatment on health institutions.

Keywords:Oral Health Promotion Programs (OHPP); Decayed Missing Filled Teeth (DMFT); cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA); Incremental Cost Effectiveness Ratio (ICER)
