AB - Objectives: To systematically review trends in information and communication technology (ICT)-based oral health interventions and technology development targeting children and adolescents in Korea. Further objectives are to provide directions for digital oral health services, and to provide foundational data. Methods: A total of 1,468 relevant articles were identified. After removal of duplicates and screening based on the exclusion criteria, 17 articles (18 studies) were included. Results: The number of ICT-related studies has increased since 2019. In terms of study design, interventional studies (77.8%) predominated over technology development studies (22.2%), and quasi-experimental designs were frequently used (nine studies). Mixed-age group studies were the most common (11 studies), indicating that target ages were mixed or concentrated within specific age ranges. Dental clinics and hospitals were the primary study settings (six studies). ICT types and functions were concentrated in applications (six studies) and monitoring (seven studies). Advanced technologies, such as those using artificial intelligence and augmented reality, have begun to be introduced, but they have only been identified in some education and diagnostic studies. Conclusions: ICT-based studies targeting children and adolescents should be further diversified. Government-level support and institutional frameworks are required to promote the development of adolescent-specific interventions and emotionally supportive ICT.
