KONFRŠT, Miroslav
The aim of the thesis was to create an educational software with the use of DVD player. This DVD is supposed to influence the level of secondary school pupils' awareness about dental hygiene in a positive way. Furthermore, it should increase the students' motivation in taking regular care of their oral cavities. This should be helpful to persist not only their healthy denture but also their overall health. The theoretical part of this thesis is focused on the anatomy of the oral cavity, particularly on the tooth construction and types of teeth. Next, the issue of dental caries and their resemblance in other more serious dental diseases, such as gingivitis or paradontitis, is presented. The attention is paid to both mechanical and chemical tools for cleaning teeth which are the cornerstones of taking proper care about the oral cavity. Second part of the thesis is practical. It is based on evaluation two tests about children's knowledge of the oral cavity and dental hygiene in general. First test was given to the children before presenting the educational software to them and the second one afterwards. Thanks to this approach it was possible to evaluate the progress the children made and subsequently the effectivity of the educational software.
