A thorough understanding of dental procedures and anatomy is essential for both practitioners and patients to achieve optimal outcomes. In pediatric dentistry, effective communication is particularly important in reducing anxiety surrounding dental procedures and improving patient cooperation. While traditional educational approaches rely on written and verbal instruction, visual and narrative-based methods may enhance engagement and accessibility.

This project aimed to develop comic-style and graphic educational resources to explain the use of Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) in managing dental caries in children, while promoting positive oral health behaviors.
