So the level of their knowledge was measured (in the form of a test) and compared.FINDINGS: In this study, the average of scores in pre-test and post-test was 7±2.8 and 8.2±2.3, respectively. The level of knowledge between the girls (9.14± 2.72) and boys (7.22±2.96) increased (p= 0.001, p= 0.007). In the girls, the level of knowledge before and after education was more than the boys (p=0.000). But the difference of increasing of knowledge between the girls was not significant in compared to the increasing of knowledge between the boys. Also, no relation was found between the scores of pre-test and post-test and parents educational level. The knowledge level of all students (boys and girls) increased in post-test.CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that indirect education with book is effective in increasing their knowledge.Babaee N, Kardan K, F Aghazade, Sh NooribayatBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticleeducationhygieneknowledgebehaviorpreventiondental cariesoral hygieneMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 14, Iss 1, Pp 83-87 (2011)
