Background: During the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic, many people were afraid to go to the dentist, which affected their dental and oral health conditions. Dental cavities may hamper children's growth and development; if this condition continues, it will affect the children's dietary intake, which may impact their quality of life and, if allowed to, cause stunting. Although in this condition, we still have to take preventive precautions with dental health education in school-age children. This required increasing dental health knowledge and understanding of dental disorders, particularly. Purpose: To describe oral and dental health knowledge improved following dental health education at Muhammadiyah 4 Elementary School, which is located in Pucang, Surabaya City, East Java. Methods: Two surveyors were responsible for data collecting. This study's sample size was 105 people ranging from third to fifth grade. The seminar covered dental and oral health via a hybrid method. The participants were asked to fill out a questionnaire form for the pre-and post-test to determine the improvement of oral and dental health knowledge for the dental health education evaluation. Results: Most oral and dental health participants understood the presentation on oral and dental health education. The post-test percentage was higher (89.14%) than the pre-test rate (60.29%). Conclusion: The program findings demonstrated that oral and dental health education with a hybrid method effectively increased elementary school children's understanding of dental and oral health status.

Introduction: Peri-implantitis treatment aims to replace the damaged bone with new and healthy tissue during bone remodeling process. Bone grafts are materials used to stimulate the formation of new bone. Bone graft material derived from Anadara granosa (AG) can be synthesized into hydroxyapatite–tricalcium phosphate (HA-TCP) at a 70:30 ratio, which supports bone regeneration, as indicated by an increase in osteoblast numbers and decrease in osteoclast numbers. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Anadara granosa bone graft in the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts during bone remodeling process. Methods: This study employed an experimental design with a post-test only control group. A total of 84 mice were divided into 12 groups (7 mice per group): negative control (K−), positive control (K+), and treatment group (P), each observed on days 14 and 28. Histological analysis was performed to count osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. Results: The number of osteoclasts was significantly reduced in the treatment groups (P14: 7.00 ± 1.528; P28: 6.57 ± 1.512) compared to the positive controls (K+14: 13.86 ± 2.410; K+28: 14.29 ± 1.496). On the contrary, the number of osteoblasts increased in the treatment groups (P14: 7.14 ± 1.676; P28: 8.57 ± 1.272) compared to the positive controls (K+14: 2.57 ± 1.512; K+28: 3.86 ± 1.574). Statistical analysis indicated that osteoblasts showed significant differences after AG treatment (p<0.05), and the ANOVA test showed significant differences in osteoclast number after AG treatment (p<0.05). Conclusion: The number of osteoblasts increases while the number of osteoclast reduces in bone remodelling of bone defect caused by peri-implantitis using AG bone graft.

Background: Softliner is commonly used to provide convenience for edentulous patients. However, the use of softliner can cause denture stomatitis due to colonization of Candida albicans. Sargassum sp. contains active compounds of steroids, alkaloids, phenols, triterpenoids, act as antibacterial and antifungal. The use of Sargassum sp. in the form of effervescent as a denture cleanser can prevent denture stomatitis, and itâ€™s expected not to affect the compressive strength. This study aimed to study the concentration variation of Sargassum sp. effervescent towards antifungal and compressive strength silicone based softlinerMethod: 20 sampels of silicone based softliner (10x3x2mm) divided into 5 groups. K(-) soaked in sterilled aquadest; K(+) in Polident solution; P1 in 10% effervescent Sargassum sp. solution; P2 20% ; P3 40%, for 15minutes. Candida calculated by colony counter (CFU/ml). Compressive strength measured by Universal Testing Machine.Result: Candida albicans in the K+ group is the lowest, while the K- group shows the highest value. In P1, P2, P3 group the value of Candida albicans is higher than K+ group, but much lower than K-. The compressive strength of K+ group shows the lowest value but in P3 group shows the highest value compared to other groups.Conclusion: The 10% concentration of effervescent extract Sargassum sp. is effective in reducing the number of Candida albicans in silicone based softliner compared to the K- group. The most effective concentration of effervescent extract Sargassum sp. in reducing the Candida albicansâ€™ growth is 40%. The higher concentration of Sargassum sp. resulting in higher compressive strength.

Dental caries in children remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, particularly among primary school-aged children. Limited oral health literacy and insufficient involvement of teachers and parents in oral hygiene guidance contribute to the high prevalence of dental caries. This study aimed to enhance children’s oral hygiene knowledge and practices through Training of Trainers (ToT)-based education for teachers and parents within a partnership between the Faculty of Dentistry, Hang Tuah University, and El Rahma Islamic Boarding School, Surabaya. A pretest–posttest design was applied, involving fifth-grade students as research subjects. Teachers and parents received ToT-based training delivered by dental professionals and subsequently provided oral health education to students. Knowledge levels were assessed using questionnaires administered before and after the intervention and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results demonstrated a significant increase in students’ mean knowledge scores, from 58.14 ± 21.30 at pretest to 77.21 ± 18.30 at posttest (p < 0.05). In addition, partner satisfaction questionnaires indicated a very high level of satisfaction with the program implementation. In conclusion, ToT-based oral health education involving teachers and parents is effective in improving children’s oral hygiene knowledge and has the potential to promote sustainable oral health behavior changes within the school environment.
