Introduction: Caries risk assessment is an effort performed to determine the causes of dental caries and the caries risk of the children. The purpose of the study was to determine the caries risk of pre-school children and the possible preventive home-treatment in reducing the risk. Methods: This research was descriptive with sampling method used was the total sampling technique. Data were collected using the Irene’s Donuts caries risk form to determine the caries risk and preventive treatment of the children. Caries risk assessment data was presented in the form of frequency distribution tables. Results: The first-year research resulted as follows: distribution of caries risk frequency based on the interview conducted towards the parents in Ulul Azmi and Amanah Kindergarten, regarding their education, age, children’s habits, showed that the highest risk (88.9%) in both kindergartens was found in children who still drink milk with pacifier bottles until more than four-years-old. The second highest risk amongst Ulul Azmi Kindergarten students (88.9%) was found in children with daily candy consumption; the highest risk amongst Arroyyan Kindergarten (90%) was tooth decay which considered not interfering the children’s development with the pH level below 6.5. Regarding the treatment choice of the students, the most choices taken amongst Ulul Azmi Kindergarten parents were helping their children brush their teeth at night before bedtime; assuring the children’s sufficient water consumption in Amanah Kindergarten parents; assuring the children’s vegetable and fruits contained menu in Arroyyan Kindergarten parents. Conclusion: The highest caries risk of pre-school children is tooth decay, with the possible preventive home-treatment, were helping the children to brush their teeth at night before bedtime, assuring the children’s sufficient water consumption, and assuring the children’s vegetable and fruits contained menu.

Introduction: Oral mucosal health is part of general health that also requires attention. Research on oral mucosal in children has not widely conducted, especially in the Jatinangor sub-district as one of the educational centres in West Java. This study was aimed to determine the most common and predicted the diagnosis or conditions of oral mucosal lesions among elementary school children. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional study. The purposive sampling method was used, in which only the fifth-grade students from the elementary school cluster near the centre of the Jatinangor sub-district were involved. The inclusion criteria were healthy condition, cooperative, able to communicate with the examiner, and obtained permission from the parent/guardian. The oral mucosal lesions were examined using disposable dental tools and a white light headlamp. Oral mucosal lesions found on examination defined as oral diseases and normal variation of oral mucosal. Results: A total of 226 students, consisting of 115 males and 111 females, were included in this study. The oral mucosal lesions found were described as follows: 100 cases of pseudomembranous plaque, 106 cases of macula, 56 cases of ulceration, 45 cases of cheek biting, and another fewer lesions. The lesions' diagnosis was coated tongue for the pseudomembranous plaque, physiologic pigmentation for the macula, aphthous stomatitis/traumatic ulcer/angular cheilitis for ulcers, linea alba for cheek biting, and others. Conclusion: The most commonly found oral mucosal lesions were macula which is diagnosed as macular hyperpigmentation, followed by pseudomembranous plaque which is diagnosed as coated tongue.

Background: Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) is a congenital abnormality that can be a risk factor for Early Childhood Caries (ECC). ECC is caries that occur in children aged 0-71 months. Poor oral hygiene often found in CL/P patients due to anatomic defects, treatment devices, and surgical scars that can facilitate the colonization of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacilli as caries-causing bacteria. This study aims to determine the prevalence of ECC in children with CL/P aged 2-6 years at Padjadjaran Univeristy Dental Hospital from 2018 - June of 2021.Method: The study used a descriptive observational method with a cross-sectional approach. The data used is secondary data which is CL/P patients aged 2-6 years medical records at Padjadjaran University Dental Hospital from 2018 until June 2021. The sample obtained using total sampling is 102.Result: The prevalence of ECC in children with CL/P was 46.08%. Unilateral complete palatognatoschizis was the most found CL/P cases (49.02%), including patients with ECC (21.57%). Male is the most common gender in this study (62.75%) also the gender with the most ECC (28.43%). Most children aged 13-24 months (66,67%), while 25-60 months (22,55%) had the highest ECC cases. Most of the CL/P patients came from West Java (95.10%), including patients with ECC (43.14%)Conclusion: Children with CLP have a high risk of caries, regardless in this study, the prevalence was not that high. Although, there are still a hefty amount of children who experience ECC. Oral hygiene must be a concern of parents from an early age to prevent ECC.

Artificial teeth elements are essential components of removable dentures. Inadequate cleaning can lead to the accumulation of microorganisms, which may cause denture stomatitis. Alkaline peroxide effervescent tablets are commonly used denture cleansers. However, prolonged use may increase the surface roughness of artificial teeth. To address this, an alternative natural-based cleanser has been formulated using red watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) rind extract in effervescent granule form. Effervescent granules of watermelon rind extract have potential as an alternative denture cleanser due to their antibacterial properties. The effervescent reaction helps mechanically remove plaque and debris while inhibiting the growth of microorganisms that cause odor and infection. This formulation is practical, natural, and economical. The study aims to evaluate the effect of immersion in effervescent granules containing watermelon rind extract on the surface roughness of artificial teeth. This was a laboratory experimental study using acrylic resin-based artificial teeth. Samples were divided into three treatment groups: aquadest, alkaline peroxide effervescent solution, and watermelon rind effervescent granule solution (n = 5). Surface roughness was measured using a Surface Roughness Tester, and data were analyzed with the Kruskal–Wallis test (p < 0.05). The mean surface roughness values after immersion in aquadest, alkaline peroxide solution, and watermelon rind effervescent granules were 0.140 ± 0.026 µm, 0.616 ± 0.213 µm, and 0.670 ± 0.041 µm, respectively. The findings demonstrate that immersion in effervescent granules containing watermelon rind extract significantly increases the surface roughness of artificial teeth. Further formulation development is recommended to optimize its potential as a natural denture cleanser.

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Community empowerment is essential in Indonesia due to the limited number of health professionals, their uneven distribution, and the low level of oral health literacy in the population. Empowerment efforts should reach all population groups and align with the Healthy Indonesia 2030 agenda, which emphasizes preventive and promotive services within a continuum of care framework. The aim of this study is to evaluate the improvement of oral health literacy through various empowerment strategies among adolescents, and to conduct early detection of oral health conditions in toddlers as baseline data for empowerment initiatives. Methods: This study used an experimental pretest and posttest design with four community empowerment approaches, including oral health literacy improvement through crossword puzzles and HELD-14 based playing cards, education on cariogenic foods for adolescents and toddlers, early detection of oral health conditions in toddlers, and a 21 day good oral health habit counseling program combined with dental screening for toddlers. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Inclusion criteria were willingness to participate, ability to read and write, and absence of hearing or speech impairments. Exclusion criteria included absence during the intervention activities and incomplete questionnaire responses or dental examinations. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro Wilk and Kolmogorov Smirnov tests for normality, followed by independent t tests and Mann Whitney tests. Results: Empowerment interventions among adolescent communities using crossword puzzles, HELD-14 based playing cards, education on cariogenic foods, and the 21 day good habit counseling program demonstrated a significant improvement in oral health literacy. Early detection results showed a significant difference in oral health status among toddlers between males and females. Conclusion: Significant differences were observed between pretest and posttest results across the four community empowerment approaches.KEY WORDS: empowerment, literacy, education, oral health status, continuum of carePeningkatan literasi kesehatan gigi melalui berbagai metode pemberdayaan pada komunitas remaja, balita dan deteksi dini kesehatan gigi anak balita sebagai data dasar pemberdayaan: Studi cross-sectionalABSTRAKPendahuluan: Upaya pemberdayaan masyarakat sangat perlu dilakukan, karena masih terbatasnya tenaga kesehatan di Indonesia dan persebarannya tidak merata serta literasi kesehatan gigi dan mulut di masyarakat masih kurang.
