Abstract

School-age children are one of the vulnerable groups to oral health problems, such as dental caries and gum inflammation. These issues are often caused by children's lack of understanding of the importance of maintaining oral hygiene. Providing education using engaging media can be done as an effort to enhance children's understanding of daily oral health care. This study aims to determine the influence of the MEGI (Coloring and Brushing Teeth) health education media on dental and oral hygiene in elementary school students. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a one-group pre-post-test design. The research sample consists of second-grade elementary school students selected using total sampling techniques. Education is provided using the MEGI health education media. Data collection on dental and oral hygiene is recorded using the Plaque Free Score index. Research data is analyzed with Paired T-test. The results show that the mean dental and oral hygiene of students increased between before (14.25) and after (66.14) being given education using the MEGI health education media. The Paired T-test result obtained a p-value of 0.00 < α 0.05, indicating a significant influence of the MEGI health education media on dental and oral hygiene in elementary school students. The MEGI health education media can be used as one of the counseling media options to improve dental and oral hygiene in elementary school students. For future research, it is recommended to provide continuous education to children, and oral hygiene examinations should be conducted periodically.

Abstract

The dental and oral therapist profession carries inherent risks to occupational health and safety, including musculoskeletal disorders like lower back pain (LBP). In Indonesia, LBP prevalence sits at 18%, and data from 2013 reveals that 11.9% of Indonesian healthcare workers suffer from musculoskeletal diseases. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of LBP among dental and oral therapists, both operators and assistants, at the Majalengka Regency Health Center. Using a descriptive approach and purposive sampling, the study enrolled 22 participants in April 2023. Data collection employed questionnaires and the Nordic Body Map (NBM), with analysis relying on the disease prevalence formula. The results yielded striking differences: 100% of operators (11 individuals) reported LBP, while only 72.7% of assistants (8 individuals) experienced the same. This disparity highlights the elevated risk faced by operators, suggesting a need for targeted interventions to address their occupational LBP burden. By streamlining the wording and focusing on key findings, this revised paragraph improves clarity and conciseness. It effectively conveys the study's purpose, methodology, and results, emphasizing the concerningly high LBP prevalence among dental and oral therapist operators.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Gingivitis is inflammation of the gingiva associated with bacterial activity in dental plaque. The combination of bay leaves and betel leaves infusion has been used as a toothbrush disinfectant. The purpose of this study was to obtain a stable and effective mouthwash formulation from the combination of both infusions to prevent and relieve gingivitis. Methods: Five mouthwash formulas were made by mixing the active ingredients which is a combination of bay leaves and betel leaves infusion, with additives. The combination namely F-I (100% : 0%); F-II (75% : 25%); F-III (50% : 50%); F-IV (25% : 75%) and F-V (0%: 100%). Antibacterial activity tests against Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguis, and Porphyromonas gingivalis and physical stability tests were carried out. Stability test was carried out by storing the formula at room temperature (280C), hot temperature (400C) and cold temperature (40C) for 3 storage cycles (6 weeks) and observing changes in the physical indicators of the solution, namely pH, specific gravity, viscosity and organoleptic conditions, namely homogeneity, clarity, color, aroma and taste at the end of every 2nd week. Results: F-I to F-V had no inhibitory activity against Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguis, but had inhibitory activity against Porphyromonas gingivalis in the range (7.19±0.48) to (8.29 ±0.82) mm (ANOVA with a significance value of 0.237 > 0.05).  The 5 formulas were more stable at cold storage, with organoleptic observations at the end of the 3rd cycle showing a slight precipitate (+), clear solution, light brown color, mint aroma and sweet taste. F-II formulas showed better physical indicators values because they were closer to the standard values. Conclusion:  The F-II formula is recommended as a mouthwash for gingivitis because significant for antibacterial effect and showed better physical indicators values as the standard values for herbal medicines.Keywords: antibacterial activity; bay leaves - betel leaves infusion; gingivitis; mouthwash formulation.
