Children’s oral health is significantly influenced by parental involvement, particularly maternal parenting practices in daily care routines. This study aimed to analyze the effect of maternal parenting within the context of dental nursing care on behavioral changes and oral hygiene status among primary school children in Banda Aceh. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was employed. The sample consisted of 60 children aged 7–8 years and their mothers, divided into an intervention group (n = 30), which received structured education and supervised parenting guidance, and a control group (n = 30), which only received educational modules. Data were collected at three stages: pre-test, post-test I (immediately after the intervention), and post-test II (two weeks later). Findings revealed a significant improvement in mothers’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding dental health in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the oral hygiene status of children, measured by the Patient Hygiene Performance-Modified (PHP-M) index, showed a statistically significant reduction in scores in the intervention group, indicating better oral cleanliness, while no significant changes were observed in the control group (p > 0.05). These results demonstrate that parenting-based dental health education effectively enhances maternal involvement in guiding and supervising children’s oral care, thereby fostering improved oral health behaviors and hygiene outcomes. The study concludes that maternal parenting approaches within dental nursing care have a substantial impact on improving both maternal dental health practices and children’s oral hygiene status.

Nicotine, a major component in tobacco products, has adverse effects on the oral mucosa, including an increased risk of oral cancer and periodontal disease. Natural Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs), carbon nanoparticles less than 10 nm in size, offer potential as nicotine detoxifying agents on the oral mucosa. The unique properties of CQDs, such as large surface area, surface functionalization ability, high biocompatibility, and antioxidant activity, allow them to bind to nicotine, reduce oxidative stress, and modulate inflammatory responses. Thus, CQDs can prevent nicotine attachment to the oral mucosa and reduce tissue damage. However, more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness and safety of natural CQDs in clinical applications as nicotine detoxification agents.

Stunting refers to a condition of short stature in toddlers due to delayed growth from the prenatal period until the age of 24 months. Chronic malnutrition in stunted toddlers leads to protein deficiency; therefore, active substances are needed for maximum protein absorption. Pineapple core (Ananas comosus) contains bromelainenzymes and citric acid, whichcan enhance protein absorption in conditions of chronic malnutrition and increase saliva flow rate.This study aims to investigate the effect of pineapple core extract on growth parameters and saliva flow rate in stunted Wistar rats. This study involved 16 male Wistar rats, which were divided into four groups: a negative control group (no treatment), a treatment group (75% pineapple core extract), a positive control group 1 (FeSo4 supplements), and positive control group 2 (pilocarpine hydrochloride). Growth parameters and saliva flow rate were measured before and after pineapple core extract treatment. The research results were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukeys test, which showed a significant difference between the treatment group and the other groups in body weight (p = 0.037), body length (p = 0.028), tail length (p = 0.003), and saliva flow rate (p = 0.000). Administration of 75% pineapple core extract resulted in increased growth parameters (body weight, body length, and tail length) and saliva flow rate in stunted rats.

ABSTRAK Tingginya angka karies gigi pada anak usia sekolah dasar di Aceh Besar menunjukkan masih rendahnya praktik deteksi dini kesehatan gigi di lingkungan sekolah. Kondisi ini mendorong dilaksanakannya program pengabdian masyarakat di MIN 20 Aceh Besar melalui inovasi Kit Skrining Karies Anak berbasis teknologi tepat guna yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan guru UKS dan dokter kecil dalam melakukan pemeriksaan gigi sederhana secara mandiri. Kegiatan dilakukan dengan pendekatan pelatihan partisipatif dan pendampingan berkelanjutan selama empat bulan, melibatkan 10 guru UKS dan 30 dokter kecil. Peserta dilatih menggunakan kit deteksi dini karies, melakukan skrining gigi rutin, serta mencatat hasil pemeriksaan dalam formulir yang disusun bersama tim pengabdi. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan peserta dalam mengenali tanda awal karies, terbentuknya sistem skrining rutin setiap bulan, serta meningkatnya kesadaran siswa untuk menjaga kebersihan gigi dan mulut. Program ini berhasil memperkuat peran UKS sebagai pusat kegiatan promotif dan preventif di sekolah dasar. Kegiatan lanjutan disarankan untuk difokuskan pada perluasan implementasi Kit Skrining Karies Anak ke sekolah lain dan pengembangan model monitoring digital agar hasil skrining dapat diintegrasikan dengan layanan puskesmas secara berkelanjutan.

ABSTRACT The high prevalence of dental caries among elementary school children in Aceh Besar reflects the lack of early detection practices for oral health within school settings. To address this issue, a community service program was carried out at MIN 20 Aceh Besar through the innovation of a Child Caries Screening Kit based on appropriate technology. This program aimed to enhance the skills of school health unit (UKS) teachers and student health cadres (young doctors) in conducting independent basic dental screenings. The activity employed a participatory training approach and continuous mentoring over four months, involving 10 UKS teachers and 30 young doctors. Participants were trained to use the screening kit, perform routine monthly examinations, and record findings using standardized forms developed with the project team. The results demonstrated significant improvement in participants’ knowledge and ability to identify early caries, the establishment of a structured monthly screening system, and increased awareness among students regarding oral hygiene. Overall, this program strengthened the role of UKS as a center for promotive and preventive health activities in schools. Future programs are recommended to expand the implementation of the screening kit to other schools and to develop a digital monitoring system that connects school-based screening data with local public health centers for sustainable follow-up care.
