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.

Abstract

The M1 tooth is the first tooth to erupt at the age of 6-7 years which becomes a guide for the growth of other permanent teeth. Early eruption, tooth anatomy, poor child behavior and lack of parental knowledge make M1 teeth most at risk of caries. The prevalence of M1 dental caries in children aged 6-12 years is the number of people who experience caries in one population. This study to determine the prevalence and estimated need for M1 care for children aged 6-12 years at AlFalah Islamic Elementary School, Bukittinggi City. This study use cross sectional research design . The number of samples was 431 (total population). Data collection was through direct observation (examination) using the DMFT index and guided interviews with a questionnaire. Data analysis used the chisquare test , α: (0.05) and the mean-Whitney test. The prevalence of M1 caries in children aged 6-12 years was 45% with a mean DMFT of 0.85. Mark The p value for gender, age group and brushing frequency is 0.04 < 0.05, meaning that there are differences in the prevalence of M1 caries based on gender, age group and frequency of brushing teeth regarding M1 dental caries. To estimate the need for restoration treatment for M1 teeth, the p value for gender is 0.02 < 0.05, meaning there is a difference in the need for M1 caries restoration for women and men, the p value for age group is 0.3 > 0.05, meaning there is no difference in need for restoration. M1 dental caries in children aged 6-9 and 10-12. The high prevalence of M1 caries occurs due to several interconnected factors. The prevalence of M1 caries in children aged 6-12 years reaches 45% with the average child having experience of 1 M1 tooth caries and the need for 1 M1 tooth filling. This must be a concern as a form of contribution to realizing a caries-free Indonesia by 2030.
