Brief summary
To assess the effectiveness of AI-based educational videos in improving patient-reported oral health outcomes.
Detailed description
This study adopts a two-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial (RCT) design to compare the effectiveness of AI-based video education versus conventional oral health instruction in improving denture care knowledge, patient satisfaction, and oral health-related quality of life among older adults receiving removable prostheses.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALAI-Based Video Education on Denture Care
The intervention consists of an AI-based educational video module, approximately 8 minutes in duration, designed to improve denture care practices. It uses step-by-step, visually engaging demonstrations with AI-guided narration to enhance understanding, recall, and adherence.
BEHAVIORALConventional Oral Health Instruction
Participants in the control group will receive conventional oral health education delivered verbally and chairside by the prosthodontic team. The standardized instruction includes information on denture hygiene techniques, appropriate storage of dentures overnight, mucosal care

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHIP-14 Score) | Baseline, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months | The primary outcome is the mean change in OHIP-14 total score from baseline to follow-up assessments. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Denture Care Knowledge Retention Score | Baseline, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months | Measured using a structured denture care knowledge quiz assessing correct cleaning frequency, storage methods, avoidance of harmful practices, recognition of poor fit, and oral hygiene procedures. |
| Patient Satisfaction with Educational Method | Baseline, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months | Measured using a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire evaluating clarity, usefulness, acceptability, and confidence in applying denture care practices after receiving the assigned intervention (AI-based video or conventional oral instruction). |
| Compliance with Denture Hygiene Practices | Baseline, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months | Assessed with a structured self-reported checklist of daily denture care practices, including cleaning frequency, storage behaviour, and oral mucosal care. |
