The results of the 2018 Riskesdas show that the average age of menarche in Indonesia is 13 years, with an earlier occurrence at the age of less than 9 years or later until the age of 17. The research method used was cross sectional. This research was conducted at SMPN 3 Batanghari Nuban with a total sample of 63 respondents. The results obtained from the 63 respondents studied were 50 respondents with good nutrition and abnormal menarche age, 48 respondents in the age category <12 years and > 14 years.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of young children in maintaining dental health through education on proper tooth brushing at Mawar Preschool (PAUD Mawar). Dental health education is crucial from an early age given the high caries rate among preschool children in Indonesia. This activity involved 25 students aged 3–6 years old, using a participatory approach that included counseling, demonstrations of tooth brushing techniques, and hands-on practice. The activity included planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation to assess the children's understanding and skills. The results showed an increase in knowledge about tooth brushing times and the importance of maintaining dental hygiene. 92% of students were able to correctly answer the questions after the education session. Furthermore, 84% of students were able to practice proper tooth brushing techniques based on observations during the practice. Teachers and parents responded positively and expressed their readiness to support ongoing tooth brushing habits. Thus, this activity successfully increased children's awareness and skills in maintaining dental hygiene and strengthened collaboration between the school, parents, and healthcare professionals. Keywords: dental health education, early childhood, tooth brushing practice, Mawar Preschool, community empowerment.
