Abstract

Caries at an early age is a global problem that affects almost half of preschool children, the prevalence of early childhood caries (ECC) globally varies widely. One of the causes of caries in children less than 5 years old is the delay in the first visit to the dentist. The purpose of this study is to identify patterns of service utilization and obstacles that cause low visits to dentists so that programs can be planned that are able to increase the number of dental visits. A literature review was conducted using PubMed, ProQuest, SpringerLink, and ScienceDirect databases with keywords such as Dental care, Dental attendance, dental utilization, and Oral health promotion. The data were then thematically analyzed to uncover trends, common challenges, and effective interventions across the literature. The results of this systematic review show a pattern in visiting the dentist, including visiting for routine dental checkups, preventive treatments, acute pain conditions that have been experienced and trauma. The patterns of use of dental and oral health services in children are influenced by the level of parental education, the type of dental health care that is covered by limited health insurance, low socio-economic factors, socio-demographic factors, and lack of adequate insurance. This study aims to offer valuable insights into the patterns of dental care utilization and the obstacles preventing higher visitation rates to dental services. The findings are synthesized to highlight consistencies and gaps, ultimately providing insights to inform the development of programs aimed at improving dental visit rates.

Abstract

Introduction:  Oral health is essential for children's mental and physical well-being. Caries is one of the most common oral diseases worldwide, especially in children. One of the contributing factors to this disease is parental engagement. Parents play a crucial role in children’s oral health, especially their Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP). Teledentistry is one of the innovative ways to improve parental KAP due to technological advancements in leveraging the number of smartphones and the internet. Teledentistry could help parents/caregivers obtain education, consultation, diagnosis, and treatment planning about oral health via remote connection without going to dental offices. This engagement of parents/caregivers through teledentistry could build good oral health in children. This review aims to assess the effectiveness of smartphone applications for teledentistry in parental KAP related to children's oral health. Methods: This review followed PRISMA guidelines. We searched the articles in five databases (PubMed, EBSCOhost via Medline, Embase, ProQuest, and Scopus) using specific keywords and a PICO framework from January 2018 to December 2023. Two reviewers independently selected the articles based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The selected articles were extracted and assessed for risk of bias using MMAT tool. Results: Of the 1529 articles initially identified, 14 met the inclusion criteria. All smartphone application reviewed were designed for parents/caregivers and integrated with teledentistry; however, only two applications incorporated with artificial intelligence. All application showed good assessment through application tests using SUS (3 articles), JN’s principles (1 article), Net Promotor Score (1 article), MARS (1 article), TAM (1 articles), and sensitivity and specificity tests (2 articles). Parental/caregiver engagement was assessed through their Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP). This has impacted the children’s oral health by improving both the plaque and gingival index. Conclusion: Smartphone applications for teledentistry effectively increase the engagement and KAP of the parents/caregivers, significantly improving the oral health status of the children.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental caries is one of the most common health problems among school-aged children and can have long-term impacts on their quality of life. Most oral health promotion interventions to date remain conventional and are often unappealing to children. On the other hand, advancements in digital technology offer significant opportunities for developing more interactive and engaging educational approaches. Review: This literature review aims to analyze the relevance and effectiveness of integrating the Health Belief Model (HBM) with gamification in the development of digital interventions for school-aged children in the field of oral health. The literature findings indicate that HBM-based interventions are effective in enhancing children’s perceptions of susceptibility, benefits, and self-efficacy in maintaining oral health. Gamification has been shown to improve engagement and motivation through game elements such as points, challenges, and rewards. Several studies conclude that, although each approach has its own strengths, the strategic integration of HBM and gamification can address their respective limitations—particularly in achieving long-term behavior change. Conclusion: However, most digital interventions have not yet explicitly incorporated all components of the HBM, nor have they adequately addressed local contexts such as culture, technological access, and the role of teachers and parents. Therefore, there is a need for the design of digital intervention applications based on HBM and gamification through a co-design approach. This concept holds potential as a direction for further research in developing sustainable and evidence-based oral health promotion solutions in Indonesia.

Abstract

Latar Belakang: Stunting adalah malnutrisi kronis pada anak yang masih menjadi tantangan kesehatan masyarakat. Stunting tidak hanya dapat menyebabkan gangguan pertumbuhan fisik dan kognitif, namun juga lebih rentan mengalami karies gigi. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui hubungan antara stunting dan kejadian karies gigi pada anak stunting usia 0-3 tahun di kabupaten Klaten, Jawa Tengah. Bahan dan Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain potong lintang dengan data primer dari program JUWITA 1000 HARTA oleh Puskesmas Juwiring. Sebanyak 264 anak yang mengalami stunting menjadi subjek dengan teknik purposive sampling. Status karies gigi diperiksa menggunakan kamera intraoral. Analisis bivariat dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji chi-square. Hasil dan Pembahasan: Dari 248 anak yang memenuhi kriteria, proporsi karies gigi 75% pada anak dengan kondisi sangat pendek (severely stunted), dan 53,9% pada pendek (stunted). Hubungan antara status stunting dan kejadian karies gigi adalah signifikan (p 0,01) dengan OR= 1,39 (95% CI; 1,11–1,74). Selain itu, faktor-faktor status ekonomi keluarga, tingkat pendidikan orang tua, dan pola makan anak juga menunjukkan hubungan yang signifikan terhadap kejadian karies gigi (p 0,05). Kesimpulan: Terdapat hubungan antara stunting dengan kejadian karies pada anak penderita stunting usia 0-3 tahun di Kabupaten Klaten, Jawa Tengah. Diperlukan program pencegahan stunting untuk mencegah terjadinya kejadian karies gigi pada anak secara tidak langsung.

Abstract

Oral health promotion among school age children requires innovative and engaging strategies to address persistent challenges such as dental caries and poor hygiene practices. Co-design methodology emphasizes the active involvement of end user chil-dren, parents, teachers, and health professionals in developing interventions tailored to their needs and context. This study re-views the use of a co-design approach in developing a school-based digital health application to improve oral health behaviors in children. The review examined stakeholder involvement, including children, parents, teachers, and health professionals in sha-ping content, usability, and engagement features of oral health applications. Evidence indicates that co-design enhances the re-levance, usability, and acceptability of digital oral health interventions by integrating the lived experiences and preferences of tar-get users. Applications developed through co-design showed higher levels of engagement, improved oral health knowledge, and better adherence to preventive behaviors among school children. It is concluded that co-design enhances the relevance, usabi-bility, and acceptability of digital oral health interventions by integrating the lived experiences and preferences of target users.

Abstract

Introduction: Untreated caries is one of the oral diseases that poses a significant burden in Indonesia. The perceived need for people to receive dental treatment is influenced by sociodemographic, economic, environmental, and healthcare service factors. The purpose of this study was to determine sociodemographic factors towards untreated caries and dental fillings in Indonesia, and then visualize them in geospatial mapping. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study used secondary data from Basic Health Research 2018. A sample was 14.031 subjects, then classified based on WHO age group and sociodemographic factors. As gender, residence, educational level, employment status, and frequency of dental visits as independent variables. Then, the number of untreated caries and fillings is the dependent variable. The bivariate analysis was used to determine different factors. QGIS was used to visualize dependent variables in 26 provinces in Indonesia. Results and Discussions: There was a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in the 35-44 years age group between females, rural residents, those with no schooling, and informal workers concerning untreated caries. Meanwhile, females, urban residents, college diploma holders, formal workers, and those with dental visits showed a tendency toward dental fillings. This result closely aligns with overlay mapping geospatial analysis. Conclusion: Sociodemographic characteristics had an impact on untreated caries and dental fillings, and should be considered to find out comprehensive strategies to improve oral health care.

Abstract

Background: Root caries (RC) remains a global burden and is often found in older adults. Risk factors for RC can vary in different countries. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors of RC in Indonesian adults. Methods: This study analyzed data from Indonesia’s 2018 National Health Survey, which included 37,057 respondents aged ≥15 years. The survey collected data on sociodemography, oral health practices, general health behaviors, and oral conditions. An oral examination was conducted to measure the number of teeth with RC, decayed, missing, or filled teeth, as well as bleeding on probing (BOP), attachment loss, pocket depth, and number of eroded teeth. Logistic regression was generated to estimate odds ratios and confidence intervals. Results: The prevalence of RC was 59.4%, mainly occurring in participants aged >45 years. Those aged >60 years had 2.52 times (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.52; 95% confidence interval [95%CI], 2.26–279) the number of RC compared with those who were younger. The likelihood of RC was increased by having a lower education (1.47 times; AOR = 1.47; 95%CI, 1.28–1.70) and never visiting a dentist (1.64 times; AOR = 1.64; 95%CI, 1.22–2.19). Decayed, missing, or filled teeth were shown to increase the risk of RC, where more coronal caries indicated a higher risk. Those with BOP (+) and attachment loss of >3 mm had a greater risk of developing RC. Conclusion: The prevalence of RC was relatively high, occurring mainly in middle-aged and older adults. Root caries in the Indonesian adult population reflects a complex interplay of multiple contributing factors, including sociodemography, oral health practices, general health behaviors, and oral conditions.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: The issue of oral health within the prison's environment remains a conspicuously neglected aspect of prisoner welfare. The underutilization of access to oral care constitutes a significant barrier. The necessity for effective oral health promotion programs tailored to this vulnerable population is further underscored by the high rates of oral disease and the lack of preventive measures. The objective of this study was to evaluate the extant literature on oral health programs among prisoners. Tujuan penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan kajian pustaka mengenai program promosi kesehatan di lembaga pemasyarakatan. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in various databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, EbscoHost, Nature, JSTOR, and Sage Journal, to identify oral health promotion programs in correctional institutions. The data were meticulously mapped and thematically analyzed to distill the key findings by the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Results: the study is as follows: A review of the extant literature reveals that while many programs focus on improving oral health knowledge and behaviors, few report long-term outcomes or address systemic barriers such as inadequate access to dental care. Interventions that are tailored to the unique needs of correctional populations, such as culturally appropriate education and peer-led programs, have shown promising results. Nevertheless, the extant evidence regarding the effectiveness of these measures remains limited. Conclusion: The prisoner training program through peer coaching can be applied to improve prisoners' knowledge and literacy of dental and oral health. Prisoners who act as peer coaches for other prisoners facilitate the effective development of the program in accordance with the conditions of the correctional institution. It is hoped that improving inmates' oral health literacy will increase their motivation to access dental services and their commitment to maintaining oral health.KEY WORDS: oral health promotion, prisons, correctional populations, preventive dentistry, public health.Program promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut di lembaga pemasyarakatan: Scoping reviewABSTRAKPendahuluan: Kesehatan gigi dan mulut merupakan masalah yang terabaikan di lingkungan Lembaga Pemasyarakatan. Kurangya pemanfaatan perawatan gigi dan mulut menunjukkan program promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut yang efektif perlu untuk disikapi lebih lanjut dengan pertimbangan tingginya tingkat penyakit gigi dan mulut dan minimnya tindakan pencegahan terhadap populasi ini. Tujuan penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan kajian pustaka mengenai program promosi kesehatan di lembaga pemasyarakatan. Metode: Pencarian komprehensif dilakukan di berbagai database seperti PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, EbscoHost, Nature, JSTOR, dan Sage Journal untuk mengidentifikasi program promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut di lembaga pemasyarakatan. Data dipetakan dan dianalisis secara tematik untuk merangkum temuan-temuan utama dengan pedoman PRISMA-ScR. Hasil: Banyak program yang berfokus pada peningkatan pengetahuan dan perilaku kesehatan gigi dan mulut, namun hanya sedikit yang melaporkan hasil jangka panjang atau mengatasi hambatan sistemik seperti akses yang tidak memadai keperawatan gigi. Intervensi disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan populasi di lembaga pemasyarakatan, seperti program pendidikan yang dipimpin oleh teman sebaya menunjukkan hasil yang menjanjikan, akan tetapi bukti tentang efektivitasnya masih terbatas. Simpulan: Kajian pustaka ini menunjukkan bahwa program promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut di lembaga pemasyarakatan sebagian besar berfokus pada peningkatan pengetahuan dan perilaku narapidana, dengan pendekatan pendidik sebaya sebagai strategi yang paling banyak dilaporkan dan berpotensi meningkatkan partisipasi. Namun, bukti mengenai efektivitas jangka panjang serta kemampuan program dalam mengatasi hambatan sistemik, terutama keterbatasan akses layanan perawatan gigi, masih terbatas. Temuan ini menegaskan perlunya pengembangan program promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut yang terintegrasi dengan sistem pelayanan kesehatan pemasyarakatan dan didukung oleh penelitian berbasis bukti yang lebih kuat.KATA KUNCI: promosi kesehatan gigi dan mulut, lingkungan lembaga pemasyarakatan, populasi yang di lembaga pemasyarakatan, kedokteran gigi preventif, kesehatan masyarakat.
