Abstract

Health cadres play a crucial role in enhancing the dental and oral health status of the community, making it essential for them to be equipped with adequate knowledge through structured education and training programs. In addition to carrying out routine tasks, cadres are also responsible for providing education on maternal and child health, necessitating their mastery of various techniques and skills. This community service project employs a descriptive method, involving 20 health cadres from posyandu and PKK, and utilizes univariate analysis for data interpretation. The intervention in the form of training aims to assist cadres in transferring knowledge to the community, particularly to high-risk groups for dental and oral diseases. The focus of this initiative is on promotive and preventive services managed by the cadres to engage the entire community. The Dental Health Education (DHE) training significantly improved the knowledge of the cadres, with 85% categorized as having poor knowledge before the training, rising to 100% in the good knowledge category afterward. It is recommended that training be conducted on an ongoing basis with follow-up sessions to ensure that cadres continuously update their knowledge and skills.

Abstract

Irene’s Donuts is an interactive program designed in both computer and manual formats, aimed at providing understanding of the risk factors for dental caries in children from an early age. This program emphasizes the importance of early prevention through the active involvement of parents, particularly mothers. The community service initiative aims to transform primary healthcare services through the innovative method of Irene’s Donuts to raise awareness among mothers about reducing the risk factors for caries in children in Banda Aceh. This community service is conducted using a descriptive method, targeting children and their mothers as respondents. Data analysis employs univariate analysis. The interventions provided include problem-based counseling, measuring children’s caries risk scores, and demonstrating proper tooth brushing techniques. The results of the community service show a significant increase in knowledge, attitudes, and practices of mothers regarding the maintenance of their children’s dental and oral health after the intervention using the Irene’s Donuts method. Additionally, there was a decrease in the caries risk scores among children, indicating the effectiveness of this method in reducing risk factors for caries and improving overall dental and oral health in children.

Abstract

Children with special needs, such as those with Down syndrome, often face challenges in their dental growth and health. Common issues include cavities, misaligned teeth, and gum disease. Difficulties in maintaining oral hygiene independently further exacerbate these conditions. Given the risk of caries that can affect a child's development and the lack of parental knowledge about dental health, early prevention through understanding and parental involvement becomes crucial. Observations at the special education school (SDLB) revealed that 63% of the children experienced dental caries, and their average oral hygiene was rated poorly with a score of 2.6. This data indicates a condition that falls short of expectations relative to government health standards. Children with intellectual disabilities often struggle to learn self-care skills and require assistance both at home and at school. In this context, parents play a central role in teaching these skills to their children. This community service program was conducted using a descriptive method, targeting both children and their mothers as respondents. Data analysis was performed using a univariate approach. The dental nursing care services were planned over 5 days, totaling 40 effective hours with three visits. Interventions included educating mothers about maintaining oral health, simulating and demonstrating proper tooth brushing techniques, and applying the concept of quality home care for parents. This included guidance, monitoring, and providing dental care that can be performed at home as preventive measures. The results of this community service activity indicated an increase in parents' knowledge and skills in caring for their children's dental health. This positively impacted the oral hygiene of the children at SDLB and fostered a change in parental behavior in supporting their children to brush their teeth independently.

Abstract

Food is an essential basic need for human survival, and food sanitation plays a crucial role in the growth and development of toddlers. Proper food processing that adheres to hygiene and sanitation principles can prevent the transmission of infectious diseases such as diarrhea, Environmental Enteric Dysfunction (EED), and helminth infections, which can lead to growth stunting and increase the risk of mortality in young children. This activity aims to implement hygiene and sanitation principles in the processing of food and beverages in households for mothers with toddlers, as an effort to prevent stunting due to dietary patterns, caregiving practices, and insufficient attention to hygiene and sanitation factors. The method of community service is conducted through the dissemination and socialization of hygiene and sanitation principles, as well as direct intervention in households to observe and apply these principles, followed by evaluation. This activity involves mothers in Gampong Teu Dayah, Kuta Malaka District, Aceh Besar Regency, and is carried out from June to October 2024, with support from the community service team of Poltekkes Kemenkes Aceh. The results of the activity indicate a high level of enthusiasm from the community in understanding the material presented, with many participants actively asking questions and providing feedback, as well as requesting further assistance in other health programs. Interventions were conducted by providing examples of the application of hygiene and sanitation principles in food and beverage processing. It is hoped that the community will continue to apply these principles in household food management to produce beneficial and healthy food.
