Abstract

Dental caries is the most common oral health problem experienced by the public, with plaque being the main cause. Brushing teeth is an effective method for removing plaque, where the brushing technique plays a crucial role in oral hygiene. Elementary Schools (SDN) 06 and 21 Taluak IV Suku regularly receive visits from the local health center every six months for dental check-ups. SDN 06 has never conducted a mass tooth brushing activity, while SDN 21 does it routinely every Wednesday, guided by trained student health officers. Preliminary studies showed that 60% of the children from both schools brush their teeth once a day using a horizontal technique. This study aims to compare the oral hygiene of 12-year-old children who use the combination of Fone’s-horizontal technique and the combination of roll-horizontal technique. The research design is a quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest. The population consisted of 50 children, with 48 samples taken using the saturated sampling technique. Dental hygiene was measured using the Hygiene Index, and data were analyzed using the independent t-test (α < 0.05). The results showed an average improvement of 16% for the Fone’s-horizontal technique and 36% for the roll-horizontal technique, with a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05). In conclusion, the roll-horizontal combination technique is more effective, and children are advised to brush their teeth using this technique twice a day to prevent dental and oral diseases.

Abstract

Women are generally more susceptible to dental and oral diseases, one of which is gum inflammation (gingivitis), caused by bacterial plaque infection. Untreated gingivitis in adolescents can lead to further complications in the periodontal tissues. Gingivitis treatment can be carried out by gargling with traditional ingredients that are safe for adolescents and do not cause harmful side effects. One natural traditional ingredient that can be used is a turmeric solution mouthwash, which contains antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. This study aims to determine the changes in the gingival index of respondents suffering from gingivitis after gargling with turmeric solution at the Department of Dental Health, Poltekkes Kemenkes Padang. The research employed a quasi-experimental method by administering a turmeric solution gargle to respondents with gingivitis, and then examining their gingival index after three days of use. The study population consisted of all students at the Department of Dental Health, Poltekkes Kemenkes Padang. The sample was taken from students in the department using a judgement sampling technique. Data were analysed using a paired t-test. The results showed that before gargling with turmeric solution, the most common gingival index categories among respondents were moderate and severe (each 44.4%), whereas after gargling, the majority fell into the mild category (55.5%). The paired t-test yielded a p-value of 0.001. In conclusion, there is a significant effect of gargling turmeric solution on gingival index in patients with gingivitis. It is recommended for further research to research the optimal formulation and concentration of turmeric solution, as well as the safety of its long-term use for adolescents and other age groups.

Abstract

The most common oral disease in Indonesia is dental cavities, especially common in school-age children due to their tendency to favor sweet and sticky foods that can cause dental caries. This study aims to identify the relationship between the frequency of cariogenic food consumption and the DMF-T index in 12-year-old children at SDN 05 Batu Taba, Ampek Angkek District, Agam Regency in 2023. This type of research is an analytic study with a cross-sectional design. The study population included 47 respondents aged 12 years from SDN 05 Batu Taba. The research methods involved interviews regarding the frequency of cariogenic food consumption and DMF-T index examination. Data analysis involved univariate and bivariate analysis, with the chi-square test used for bivariate analysis. The results showed that the frequency distribution of cariogenic food consumption was categorized as low 63.8%, medium 19.1%, high 17.0%, and very high 0%. The frequency distribution of dental caries in the good category reached 42.6%, while the bad category reached 57.4%. The statistical test results showed a ρ value of 0.016 <0.005. The conclusion of this study is that there is a significant relationship between the frequency of cariogenic food consumption and the DMF-T index in 12-year-old children at SDN 05 Batu Taba, Ampek Angkek District, Agam Regency. It is recommended to intensify the longitudinal study to better understand the behavioral changes of cariogenic food consumption frequency and its impact on DMF-T index over time.

Abstract

Oral hygiene is an indicator of oral and dental health which can be assessed based on the presence or absence of organic deposits, such as pellicle, materia alba (dental deposit), food residue, calculus, and dental plaque. Plaque is the cause of tooth decay among the world's population. Plaque on the tooth surface can be used as an indicator of oral hygiene. Poor cleaning can lead to stickier plaque and tartar after calcification. The thin plaque is almost the same as the color of the teeth, so that plaque cannot be seen with the naked eye. The presence of plaque that is formed from contact with oral fluids can be detected by using certain dye. This study aims to determine the Effectiveness of Purple Sweet Potato Extract and Disclosing substance for Plaque Identification among the children in Aisyah Orphanage, Tilatang Kamang Sub-District, Agam District. This was a quasi-experimental study with a post-test-only design. The samples of this study were 30 children at Aisyah Orphanage, Tilatang Kamang Sub-District, Agam District, with the inclusion criteria of children with permanent teeth and index teeth. The samples were selected through total sampling technique. The results showed that after applying purple sweet potato extract to the children at Aisyah Orphanage in Bukittinggi City, most of them had the Patient Hygiene Performance index (PHP) in the moderate criteria (50%). Furthermore, after applying disclosing substances to the children at Aisyah Orphanage in Bukittinggi City, most of them had the PHP index in the poor criteria (56.7%). The t-test independent statistical test results obtained a p-value of 0.000 (p <0.005), indicating a significant difference between sweet potato extract and disclosing substance. Disclosing substance was more effective than purple sweet potato extract in identifying plaque on the tooth surface. Further study is recommended to apply purple sweet potato extract with different concentrations as an alternative ingredient to identify plaque on the tooth surface.

Abstract

Dental health education is one of the programs to tackle dental health problems in Indonesia. The selection of the appropriate method in delivering educational material significantly contributes to the achievement of the targeted behavior change. Demonstration is one of the methods commonly used in this process. The demonstration method can be amplified by incorporating audio-visual media. It can be used to deliver the material more interestingly so that learning can be more interactive. This study aims to determine dental health education using demonstrations and videos on toothbrushing behavior changes among primary school students aged 9-12 years old. This research is quasi-experimental with Pretest-Posttest Group Design. The research samples are students aged 9-12 years old at SDS Al-Azhar Bukittinggi with a total number of 100 students. These samples were collected by simple random sampling. The research procedure started by giving a pre-test followed by a demonstration and video presentation about toothbrushing for different groups. The research then ended with a post-test to find out tooth brushing behavior. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney test. From the results of the Wilcoxon test, dental health education with demonstration method and video before and after the treatment obtained a significance value of 0.000 <0.05. It indicates that dental health education with demonstrationmethod and video effectively improves the respondent's toothbrushing behavior. The Mann-Whitney test showed a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. It indicates that there is a difference in toothbrushing behavior between the demonstration method and video. Dental health education with the demonstration method is more effective in changing the respondent's toothbrushing behavior. Therefore, it is recommended for school teachers and UKGS officers to conduct dental health education using the demonstration method to change the toothbrushing behavior of elementary school students.
