Abstract

Oral health is an integral part of general health, yet many elementary school children have low levels of knowledge regarding proper oral care. Preliminary findings at MI Miftahul Falah Sinanggul showed that most fifth-grade students were categorized as having poor oral health knowledge. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Dental Hunt Treasure Map, an interactive game-based educational media, in improving students’ knowledge of oral health. A pre–posttest design was applied in which students’ knowledge was measured using a structured questionnaire before and after the intervention. The intervention involved the use of the Dental Hunt Treasure Map, designed to deliver oral health messages through engaging tasks and activities. Data were analyzed to assess the changes in knowledge scores. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge after the intervention, with more students achieving good knowledge levels and fewer remaining in the poor category. These findings indicate that interactive, game-based educational tools are effective in supporting oral health education among school-aged children. In conclusion, the Dental Hunt Treasure Map proved to be an effective medium for increasing students’ knowledge of oral health and has potential as an attractive, practical, and easily understood alternative for school-based health promotion programs.

Abstract

Dental and oral health problems are often experienced by children with special needs. Limitations in physical and mental development can affect the process of maintaining dental and oral health. Children with special needs in the disabled group have disorders where their body parts are not perfect because they experience disabilities caused by damage to the bones, muscles, and joints so that they do not function normally. The shortcomings of children with physical impairments require parental assistance in maintaining dental and oral health. Providing counseling and giving pocketbooks to parents is an alternative to strengthening the maintenance of dental and oral health for children with physical impairments. This community service activity was carried out at SLB Jepara on a sample of children with physical impairments. The method used in this activity is the Health system approach, namely: Input – Process – Output. The results of the service carried out showed a decrease in the debris index value in children. The good debris index category after implementation was obtained by all respondents. The dental and oral hygiene pocketbook for parents of physically disabled children is used as a tool to increase parents' knowledge about dental and oral health and hygiene.
