N2 - The majority of dental clinics in Indonesia were closed for routine dental treatments during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as the prevalence of dental caries in children <5 years of age in Indonesia was?>92%, there was an increased risk of severe dental problems requiring urgent and emergency intervention. Using school-based online learning, audiovisual video was shared to parents of kindergarten students to inform about pediatric dental services during the COVID-19 pandemic. This approach was explored as a model that can be used in the future to perform oral health promotion for children. To determine the effectiveness of using audiovisual videos to improve parental knowledge about dental services during the COVID-19 pandemic as a model for oral health promotion performed at school. The current study was a randomised controlled trial carried out at kindergarten schools in Setiabudi sub-district, South Jakarta district, Indonesia. The study included 95 parents assigned to one of two intervention groups [audiovisual group (n = 50); visual group (n = 45)]. The participants completed pre- and post-intervention questionnaires, and the resulting scores were analyzed statistically. The proportion of participants who answered the questions as "expected" and "not expected " was compared before and after the intervention. The post-intervention scores were significantly higher than the pre-intervention scores in both groups (Mann-Whitney Test, p < 0.0001); however, the differences in the scores did not vary significantly by group (Mann-Whitney Test, p = 0.329). The audiovisual video did significantly increase parental knowledge among non-university and university backgrounds. Audiovisual videos can be used during school-based online learning to improve parental knowledge of dental services during the COVID-19 pandemic. This approach is promising to deliver oral health promotion to parents in school.
