Abstract

Recent international studies have shown that saliva has some abilities to neutralize acidic situation in mouth, this ability is called as the saliva buffer capacity. In addition, saliva could influence tooth caries occurrence, which is because of that saliva is able to reduce of plaque accumulation on the tooth surface, and it therefore increases the carbohydrate cleansing from oral cavity. However little has known about salivary characteristics among school children and its relation to tooth decay.The objective of this research was to investigate the relationship between saliva characteristics, which are pH, the buffer capacity and saliva viscosity, and caries prevalence among school children in IJKGS program. The research method was analytical design with cross-sectional method classified as predictor study. The population was 1980 school children from some elementary schools implementing school based dental care programs organized by the Dental Health Department of Bandung Health Polytechnic. The study sample was 220 students chosen using the simple random sampling. The hypothesis testing was the multivariate regression linier analysis. The result has shown that there is a significant relation between pH of saliva and dental caries among school children (r = -0,666, p-value <0,001), while there is also a significant relation between the saliva buffer capacity and caries among school children (r = 0,588 p-value <0,001), however there is no significant relation between saliva viscosity and caries (r = 0,105, p value = 0,119). Simultaneously, there is a significant relation between three saliva characteristics and caries, which has shown by the value of multivariate coefficient correlation (R) that is 0.737. Meanwhile the value of Coefficient Determination (R-square) is 0.544, which explains that 54.4 % of changes in caries have been influenced by saliva characteristics.

Abstract

Dental and mouth disease is a disease that can attack all age groups, and has a progressive attitude if not treated or treated which will get worse. Riskesdas (2018) recorded data nationally for the proportion of dental and mouth problems (tooth decay/cavity/pain) of 45.3%, and the highest dental and mouth problems experienced by residents in the age group of 5-9 years which amounted to 67.3 %. This research was conducted with the aim to find out the effectiveness of dental and oral health counseling on respondents’ knowledge by using the lecture method and the group discussion method, namely in September 2019 until May 2020. The research method used is the study of literature by collecting data related to research from literature which is then examined. The data used are secondary data that is data obtained from the results of previous studies or sources of literature and data collection methods used are literature studies, namely by collecting various references about counseling with lecture methods, group discussions and the level of knowledge about oral health. Data analysis method used is the content analysis method or descriptive analysis method which is done by describing the facts obtained and then analyzed. The data obtained is compiled and analyzed so that conclutions can be obtained that can answer the reseach objectives based on the study of literature studies.The results of the literature study show that there are differences in respondents' knowledge after counseling with the lecture method and the group discussion method. The average value of respondents’ knowledge after the counseling intervention with the group discussion method is greater than the lecture method, so it can be concluded that the group discussion method is more effective in increasing respondents' knowledge about oral and dental health than the lecture method. The effectiveness of health education methods is influenced by various factors including responden characteristics such as age, education level, etc. So that it can give different effectiveness results.
