Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of periodontal disease remains high in Indonesia. Lack of knowledge and limited access to healthcare services can lead to poor dental health status. The aim of this study is to enhance housewives' knowledge of self-prevention practices for periodontal disease on Derawan Island. Material and Methods: This study utilized a true experiment with a Randomized Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design involving 42 housewives. The intervention included knowledge enhancement using a module book and periodontal health education. Knowledge of periodontal health was assessed using questionnaires, while behavior in periodontal disease prevention was evaluated using the Oral Hygiene Index-Simplified (OHIS). The collected data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Spearman's rank correlation test. Results and Discussions: The majority of respondents had good knowledge (85,72%), while their oral hygiene was in the moderate category (54,55%). An increase in knowledge was observed in 19,05% of respondents. There was a significant difference in knowledge before and after the intervention (P<0,05). However, no significant correlation was found between knowledge and OHIS (P>0,05) Conclusion: Knowledge of periodontal disease prevention among housewives on Derawan Island has increased. Good knowledge among most housewives can serve as a foundation for independent periodontal disease prevention behaviors. This study is still ongoing to observe changes in self-prevention behavior.

Abstract

Kesehatan gigi dan mulut merupakan bagian penting dari kesehatan secara keseluruhan, namun sering kali kurang mendapat perhatian, khususnya pada kelompok lanjut usia (lansia). Gigi dan mulut memiliki peran krusial dalam proses pencernaan dan pemenuhan kebutuhan nutrisi, yang berkontribusi terhadap kesehatan serta kualitas hidup lansia. Seiring bertambahnya usia, risiko lansia mengalami kekurangan gizi semakin meningkat. Masalah ini berkaitan erat dengan penurunan fungsi biologis tubuh. Asupan makanan yang tidak seimbang dapat memperburuk kondisi kesehatan gigi, mulut, dan kesehatan umum lansia yang secara alami telah mengalami penurunan. Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan lansia di Banjar Kebonkuri Tengah, Kesiman, Denpasar mengenai pentingnya gizi dalam menjaga kesehatan gigi dan mulut. Metode yang diterapkan dalam kegiatan ini adalah penyuluhan tatap muka yang didukung dengan peragaan poster bergambar terkait gizi dan kesehatan gigi-mulut pada lansia. Sebelum penyuluhan, peserta diberikan pretest, dan setelah kegiatan selesai, dilakukan postest. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan peserta, ditunjukkan melalui peningkatan jumlah jawaban benar pada postest. Hasil pretest menunjukkan hanya 10,5% peserta lansia yang mampu menjawab pertanyaan dengan benar. Setelah penyuluhan dilaksanakan, hasil postest menunjukkan bahwa 100% peserta dapat menjawab semua pertanyaan dengan benar. Hal ini mencerminkan peningkatan sebesar 89,5% yang menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan PkM ini berhasil meningkatkan pemahaman lansia mengenai pentingnya gizi untuk menjaga kesehatan gigi dan mulut.

Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of dental caries in children remains high in Indonesia. Primary teeth are particularly vulnerable to caries, yet parental awareness of children's oral health is often insufficient. As a result, children with caries often do not receive proper treatment. It is unfortunate when caries occur  at an early age. This study aims  to describe the occurrence of dental caries and the need for dental treatment in early childhood. Material and Methods: This study utilized a descriptive-analytic method with a cross-sectional approach, which involved  52 children, aged 3 to 5 years. Dental caries were assessed using the def-t index, while treatment needs were evaluated with the Required Treatment Index (RTI). The data collected were analyzed descriptively and further examined using the Mann-Whitney and Spearman's rank correlation test. Results and Discussions: The prevalence of dental caries in children was 57.69%, with an average def-t score of 2.62. Caries were most commonly found in the upper jaw, particularly affecting the primary first incisors, followed by the primary molars. The treatment needs index (RTI) was 99.26%, indicating that most carious teeth were left untreated, requiring dental treatment. There was no significant caries difference between boys and girls (p > 0.05). However, a significant correlation was found between age and caries frequency (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The average caries rate in primary teeth falls within the low category. However, nearly all affected teeth require treatment. Among children aged 3 to 5 years, caries prevalence tends to increase with age, and no difference between boys and girls.

Abstract

Introduction: The increasing life expectancy in Indonesia, including  Denpasar City, has led to a growing elderly population. Older adults are vulnerable to various health problems, including tooth loss. This condition can impair chewing function, affect facial aesthetics, and ultimately reduce the quality of life. Dentures are a commonly used solution; however, their use among the elderly remains low. Therefore, it is important to explore the factors influencing the interest in using dentures. Material and Methods: This study was a qualitative research including a descriptive exploratory approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 20 older adults from five community units (banjar) in Denpasar City, selected purposively. Data were analyzed thematically using the Hanlon method, which considers the magnitude of the problem,  seriousness of the impact,  effectiveness of the solution, and feasibility of implementation, to assess and prioritize the factors contributing to the low interest in denture use. Results and Discussions: Six main themes were identified as influencing the low interest in denture use: passive acceptance of tooth loss as a natural part of aging, limited access due to lack of transportation or assistance, (3) low knowledge about the benefits of dentures, discomfort during use, perception of high costs, and ignorance of the Indonesian health insurance coverage. Conclusion: The low interest in denture use among older adults is influenced by psychosocial, structural, and educational factors. Educational interventions, provision of mobile health services, and culturally sensitive, community-based approaches are needed to improve denture utilization among older adults.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental caries continues to be a major oral health problem among preschool children. The decayed, missing, and filled teeth (dmf-t) index is widely used as an indicator to assess caries status in this population. Gender has been suggested as a factor that may influence both the prevalence and severity of dental caries. Therefore, the objective of this study was to examine and compare the dmf-t index among preschool children according to gender. Material and Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional design with a purposively selected sample of 31 preschool children. Dental caries was assessed using the dmf-t index. Data were analyzed descriptively, and comparative analysis was conducted using the Mann-Whitney test. Results and Discussions: The results showed that the prevalence of dental caries among preschool children was 67.74%, with a mean caries score of 3.55 ± 4.06 falls within the moderate category. The prevalence of dental caries was higher in girls compared to boys (69.23% : 66.67%), whereas the mean caries score was higher in boys (4.39 ± 4.90 : 2.38 ± 2.14). Statistical analysis indicated no significant difference in the dmf-t index between boys and girls. Conclusion: Gender did not show a significant difference in caries experience. although the prevalence of dental caries was higher among girls, the mean caries experience was greater in boys.
