A cross analysis was done between the scripts and performances of the puppets shows and OHE information received by the preschool children. Results: Among 4 scripts and performances of OHE puppet shows, one was graded as good, two were acceptable and one was need to be improved. Out of 101 preschool children, 61% of them liked too much OHE puppet shows and 38% just liked it. Sixteen percents of preschool children recall back three or all of four facts of OHE information, 66% recalled one or two facts and 18% could not remember any fact. Association between grading of the script and performance of the puppet shows and receiving OHE information by preschool children was noticed (p<0.05). Conclusion: This evaluation proved that there was some extent of effectiveness of OHE puppets among preschool children. A proper coaching to dental students is needed to produce effective OHE puppet shows.
