Abstract

Gigi keropos adalah masalah kesehatan pada gigi yang umum dialami oleh sebagian besar orang. Gigi keropos terjadi ketika enamel gigi terkikis, padahal enamel gigi bahkan lebih kuat daripada tulang. Gigi keropos terjadi akibat terkikisnya enamel di gigi yang disebabkan oleh zat asam. Selain itu, seorang dengan kondisi medis tertentu, seperti mulut kering, penyakit asam lambung, atau orang yang mengonsumsi obat-obatan antihistamin juga berisiko untuk mengalami gigi keropos. Untuk mengatasi masalah gigi keropos, bisa dilakukan dengan mencegah dan menghilangkan gigi keropos. Pencegahan gigi keropos adalah mengurangi jumlah bakteri kariogenik, dan menciptakan keadaan yang kondusif untuk proses remineralisasi. Menghilangkan gigi keropos yang paling umum dilakukan adalah dengan melakukan restorasi atau penambalan. Adapun tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk mengedukasi masyarakat terutama tentang pentingnya menjaga kesehatan gigi dan mulut dengan metode ceramah, memberikan edukasi masalah gigi dan mulut, terutama gigi keropos, dan memberikan penanganan masalah gigi keropos pada lansia.

Abstract

Self-medication is an act of self-treatment performed by the community to overcome toothache. Many people who suffer from toothache choose to self-medicate with pain killers or herbal medicines. The phenomenon of self-medication arose because people felt that self-medication was an easier and more practical option than going to the dentist. The aim of the study was to determine the factors that influence the self-medication behaviour of patients with toothache in the community. The research method used was descriptive observational with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was the community of Batudaa district, and the sample was taken through accidental sampling method using questioner by google form. The results showed that majority of the respondents (91.66%) had practiced self-medication, 33.97% of them used chemical drugs while 41.02% combined chemical and herbal drugs. Mefenamic acid was the most commonly purchased analgesic from the pharmacy (33.97%), while saline solution was the most commonly used herbal medicine (42.94%). The main reason for self-medication by respondents was convenience and practicality (33.33%), followed by experience of recovery with the same medicine (30.76%), and several other reasons were given by respondents. This study found that personal knowledge and previous experience by themselves or peers significantly influenced the choice of medication, including easier, quicker and can be done by themselves, save cost, time and can return to activities immediately. The conclusion of this study emphasises that self-medication behaviour is influenced by convenience and practicality factors, with recommendations for the community to increase knowledge about the use of analgesics and to consult medical personnel before initiating any medication regimen and symptoms do not improve.
