AbstractIntroduction: Early childhood caries (ECC) is tooth decay commonly happened in early childhood. ECC is becoming a significant public health problem. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) encourages health care providers and caregivers to adopt preventative measures that can reduce a child's risk of developing this disease. ECC is caused by several factors, one of which is the child's diet. The prevalence of ECC in children aged 4-6 years is increasing, even though it is the age when permanent teeth start to grow. The purpose of this study was to determine the relation between ECC and dietary habit in children aged 4-6 years. Methods: The type of research is descriptive survey.  The population of this study was 109 children and the sample of this study was 45 children using the purposive sampling technique and sample counting using stratified sampling. The research instruments were: odontogram medical record and Food Frequency Questionnaire form.  Results: 44.45% of the children experienced ECC. The highest percentage of cariogenic food diets were snacks (48.9%), bread (42.2%), and cakes (33.3%). The highest percentage of non-cariogenic food diets were rice (93.3%), fruits (71.1%), and vegetables (40%). Conclusion: Children who experienced ECC were 44.45%. The distribution of cariogenic food diets for kindergarten students are snacks, bread, and cakes, while the highest distribution of non-cariogenic food diets are rice, fruits, and vegetables.KEY WORDSearly childhood caries, diet, cariogenic, childrenEarly Childhood caries dan pola makan anak usia 4-6 tahun: Penelitian deskriptif ABSTRAKPendahuluan: Early childhood caries (ECC) adalah kerusakan gigi pada anak anak usia dini.

Abstract

Autisme merupakan salah satu gangguan yang disebut Gangguan Spektrum Autisme (GSA). GSA sendiri adalah suatu gangguan pada perkembangan sistem saraf pusat yang sifatnya heterogen dan diturunkan secara polygenik atau melibatkan banyak gen yang berbeda. Gangguan ini akan terus ada seumur hidup penderita, umumnya penderita akan didiagnosis pada usia sekitar 2 tahun, sehingga banyak dari penderita yang memerlukan “bantuan” sepanjang hidupnya. Dalam menghadapi kondisi dan perilaku anak dengan GSA, orang tua, guru, pengasuh membutuhkan banyak waktu, upaya dan kesabaran. Konseling dapat bergerak di bidang mana saja, baik di sekolah maupun di masyarakat yang lebih luas, termasuk lingkungan keluarga. Kerjasama antara keluarga dan sekolah dalam membantu anak autisme mengoptimalkan kemampuannya sangatlah penting.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: One way to improve public oral health is through conducting health promotion activities. As technology develops, the internet has been used as a medium for health promotion by presenting health content through websites. However, the use of these websites has the potential to provide inaccurate health information due to the flexibility of users in uploading health content without a prior regulatory process and review of the contents. This study aims to describe oral health promotion content quality through regarding caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancer websites using Discern Instruments. Methods: This study used the descriptive method with a cross-sectional approach. Samples were taken using the purposive sampling technique, with a total of 46 samples. The instrument consisted of 16 questions divided into three sections. The first section, comprising seven questions, focused on the reliability and accuracy of the presented health information. The second section, with eight questions, focused on the quality of information regarding treatment options. The final section, consisting of a single question, assessed the overall assessment based on the previous questions. The quality of the websites was assessed by two reviewers. The inter-rater reliability between the two reviewers was calculated using the Cohen’s Kappa test. Data presentation included frequency distribution, mean, and standard deviation. Results: In this study, 33.3% of caries websites had low quality and 66.6% had moderate quality. In periodontal disease, 33.3% of websites were of low quality, 60% were of moderate quality and 6.6% were of high quality. In oral cancer, 26.3% were of low quality and 73.6% were of medium quality.  Conclusion: The quality of dental and oral health promotion content on websites, assessed using the Discern Instruments, shows that most websites regarding caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancer have moderate quality, some have low quality, and only one website is of high quality.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction: The PUFA Index and pufa are used to measure the severity of dental and oral conditionwhich are not commonly used due to its novelty, and this index can be used to measure untreated dental caries7 and caries activity. The aims of study are to assess the severity of untreated caries in children’s deciduous and permanent teeth by using the PUFA and pufa index. Methods: An observational study using a cross-sectional study design was conducted among children who lived in Puteran village in Pager Ageung district, Tasikmalaya Regent, West Java, Indonesia. Purposive sampling was used, and the children who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were invited to participate in the study. Severity of caries was assessed using the pufa and PUFA index for deciduous and permanent teeth, respectively. Severity of caries data were analysed using formulas for pufa and PUFA index. Results: A total of 206 children participated in the study. The PUFA assessment showed the severity of caries was high in the deciduous dentition with pufa index of 3.5 with SD 1,9-3,6 However, the PUFA assessment showed a relatively lower severity of caries in permanent teeth, with index PUFA of 0.5 with SD 1,9-3,6. The severity of caries was higher in the maxillary than the mandibular teeth in deciduous teeth. On the other hand, the severity of caries was higher in the mandibular than maxillary teeth in the permanent teeth. Conclusions: Each child aged 6 and 12 years in Puteran village had severe untreated caries in one permanent tooth and severe untreated caries in 3 to 4 of deciduous teeth. The findings of the study will be used to develop caries prevention and oral health promotion programs.KEYWORDS Caries, Severity, Deciduous, Permanent, teeth, PUFA, PUFA index, children

Results: The mean intrinsic motivation range of Bunda Asuh Nanda Kindergarten and Mekar Arum Kindergarten parents was 45 to 65, while the extrinsic motivation range was 51 to 59, and the combined motivation range was 47 to 63. The Mann-Whitney test result showed a significant difference in the intrinsic and combined motivation, with a p-value of 0.0008 and 0.0073, respectively, while the extrinsic motivation showed no difference (p-value=0.2313). Conclusions: The motivation for seeking oral health treatment in parents of kindergarten students showed differences in intrinsic and combined motivation, while no difference is found in extrinsic motivation. Most of the parents in both kindergartens have rather good motivation in seeking oral health treatment for their children.Keywords: children; oral health; motivation; parents; treatment-seeking behaviour

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: A lack of knowledge of oral health maintenance among pregnant women affects the behavior of maintaining poor oral health.  It is important for pregnant women to visit the dentist due to their increased susceptibility to oral diseases, which can adversely impact pregnancy outcomes, including premature birth and low birth weight. According to the theory of planned behavior, a mother's knowledge can influence her health-related behavior. To determine the level of oral health knowledge among pregnant women and to examine the relationship between this knowledge and the factors that influence their behavior regarding dental visits. Methods: This study uses a correlational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach, focusing on pregnant women at the Cijerah Community Health Centerin Bandung City, Indonesia. A purposive sampling method resulted 67 participants. A new questionnaire assessed oral health knowledge (20 items) and factors influencinh visiting behavior based on the theory of planned behavior (26 items). Data analysis used the Spearman correlation test. Results:Most pregnant women (76.2%) had insufficient oral health knowledge, but showed a positive attitude towards dental visits in the first trimester and every six months (11.91 ± 2.66 and 11.65 ± 2.87). They also reported good subjective norm (28.73 ± 5.42 and 28.31 ± 5.19), good behavioral control (8.23 ± 1.67 and 8.32 ± 1.61) and good intention (3.94 ± 0.96 and 3.83 ± 1.06). Conclusion: The level of oral health knowledge is  low, and althoughfactors influencing the dental visit behavior are positive, there is no correlation between this knowledge and factors that influence the behavior of visiting the dentist.
