    The objective of this research was to determine the effectiveness of audiovisual training on deleterious oral habits at the San Pablo Apóstol educational center, Lima, 2019. It was a quasi-experimental, descriptive, and longitudinal study. The sample consisted of 30 primary school teachers, with 15 teachers receiving audiovisual training and 15 teachers receiving a lecture. The audiovisual training involved projecting images, videos, and clinical cases about the habit of mouth breathing and atypical swallowing. The lecture consisted of a verbal presentation without visual aids on the aforementioned habits. Before and after the training, the teachers completed a 15-question questionnaire, previously validated by expert judgment, to measure knowledge about deleterious oral habits. Additionally, they identified the sequelae in patients with mouth breathing and atypical swallowing using images. The results were analyzed using the Student’s t-test, with a significance level of 0.05%. The results showed that the teachers who received audiovisual training increased their knowledge level from 20% to 73.3%. In contrast, the teachers who received the lecture did not show an improvement in their knowledge.
