Abstract

Dental and oral health should be taken care of from an early age, as dental condition can affect dental health in adulthood. Our gums can get damaged if we don't brush our teeth often, especially before going to bed. Gingiva is a part of the mucous membrane of the mouth that surrounds the tooth neck and covers an ungrown crown. It serves as a structural support for the surrounding tissue. The study investigated the relationship between the health status of the gums and the habit of brushing teeth at night in children aged 10-12 years. This research uses quantitative research with analytical observational design and a purposive sampling approach which means that samples are determined with certain considerations or have criteria to be met. The study involved 143 students aged between 10 and 12 at SD Inpres Unggulan BTN Pemda, with 66 samples. The results showed that 34 people (51.5%) brushed their teeth at night, while 32 people (48.5%) did not. Among the children who brushed their teeth at night, five (7.6%) had healthy gums, 28 (42.4%) had mild inflammation, and one (1.5%) had moderate inflammations. Among children who didn't brush their tooth at night there were none of them having a healthy gum, 24 (36.4%) experienced mild inflamation. The results of statistical research show that p 0.05 is 0.005. So, there's a significant link between the habit of brushing teeth at night and the health of the gums.

Abstract

Pangkajene and Islands Regency is one of the regions in South Sulawesi with the highest prevalence rate of dental caries, reaching 55.83%. Dental caries is the most common dental and oral health problem in Indonesia, caused by a lack of knowledge about dental hygiene, which also affects people's skills in maintaining dental and oral hygiene. One of the vulnerable social groups that needs attention is children living in orphanages. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between knowledge level and skill level on the prevalence of permanent dental caries in children at the Mattoanging Orphanage, Pangkajene District, Pangkep Regency. This research method is classified as a quantitative research type using a cross sectional approach design. The sampling technique used was total sampling where all members of the population totaling 45 people were sampled. The statistical test scale used is Chi-square with a significance limit of 5% (α = 0.05). The results show a significant relationship between the incidence of permanent dental caries and the level of knowledge (p-value 0.019) and the level of skill in maintaining oral hygiene (p-value 0.001). The conclusion is that there is an inverse relationship between the level of knowledge and the level of skill on the incidence of dental caries. The lower a person’s knowledge and skills in maintaining oral hygiene, the higher the chance of them experiencing dental caries.
