中文摘要 口腔健康是預測老年人衰弱的重要指標，長期性口腔問題也與多重慢性疾病有關，且良好的口腔健康衛生，可預防失智及認知功能障礙。為提升高齡者對口腔保健活動的參與，養成刷牙、使用潔牙工具等習慣，本研究設計具「色彩鮮明、字句簡潔、生動活潑」等特色之「牙超人出任務」故事繪本，作為引導口腔保健衛教的輔具，或進行雙向「說故事」活動設計之參考，進而提升長者口腔健康，也利用「口腔保健說故事暨衛教活動」來實測繪本的成效，發現長者對本產品設計的接受度高，也能提升口腔保健動機，唯因時間及經費限制，僅以SWOT分析發現有銷售成本較高、缺乏長期成效檢驗等限制，期許未來與廠商合作，量產為平價產品，必能提升口腔照護正確觀念，減少整體醫療成本支出。

“Dental Superman on a Mission” – Innovative Product Development and Evaluation of an Oral Health Guide Picture Book
Lien, Y.-C., Tsai, P.-L
English Abstract Oral hygiene is an important indicator of frailty among older adults, and long-term oral problems are associated with many chronic diseases. Moreover, good oral hygiene can prevent dementia and cognitive impairment. To increase older adults’ participation in oral hygiene activities and encourage them to build habits of brushing their tooth with toothbrushes, our group designed a picture story book titled “Dental Superman on a Mission” that “has colorful illustrations and simple sentences, and is lively and engaging” to be used as an aid for oral hygiene health education or as a reference for bidirectional “story-telling” activity design for improving oral health among older adults. We also used an “oral hygiene story-telling health education activity” to measure the effectiveness of the picture book. High acceptance of this product was found among older adults, and this product also increased oral hygiene motivation. However, due to time and cost limitations, only SWOT analysis identified limitations such as high sales cost and lack of long-term effectiveness testing. We hope to collaborate with manufacturers in the future to mass-produce product with a reasonably price to promote oral care concepts and decrease overall medical expenditures.Keywords：older adults, older adults’ oral hygiene, community activities, picture book
