Abstract

Dental caries is one of the most common oral health problems in society. One of the factors suspected to contribute to the occurrence of dental caries is the habit of brushing teeth. This program aims to increase students' knowledge about the importance of dental and oral care and train them in correct tooth brushing techniques. This activity began with counseling on dental health problems that children often face, such as cavities due to bad habits and high sugar consumption. Furthermore, students were given practical training on how to brush their teeth effectively. After the counseling, data collection was continued with a questionnaire to determine children's tooth brushing habits and the incidence of tooth decay. The results of the training showed that students were very enthusiastic and were able to understand and practice the correct tooth brushing technique. The results of the study: the habit of brushing teeth of elementary school children in the category of irregular brushing of teeth was 15 students (34.1%) of respondents from 44 respondents who were sampled. And the occurrence of tooth decay in children was 28 students (63.6%) of 44 respondents who were sampled. The results of the analysis of the relationship between tooth brushing habits and the occurrence of tooth caries. The analysis using the Chi-square test showed a P-Value = 0.361, indicating no significant relationship between tooth-brushing habits and the occurrence of dental caries. This suggests that other factors, such as dietary patterns, particularly frequent consumption of sugary foods like chocolate or candy, may have a greater influence on dental caries occurrence. Therefore, it is necessary to educate students about the importance of maintaining oral hygiene and reducing sugary food consumption to prevent dental caries.

Abstract

Self-medication is increasingly common among the general public, including adolescents. However, a lack of proper understanding regarding drug use, storage, and disposal can lead to medication errors that pose serious health risks. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of students at SMP regarding the proper and responsible use of medications through an educational session titled “Using Medicines Wisely.” The activity was conducted on May 24, 2025, by lecturers from the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Swadaya Gunung Jati (UGJ), using a face-to-face method involving a pre-test, educational material delivery, interactive discussion, and a post-test. Pre-test results showed that only 22% of participants had good knowledge, which increased to 68% after the educational session with the meaning of value. These findings indicate that the activity effectively enhanced students’ understanding of responsible self-medication practices, particularly in recognizing drug types, usage instructions, proper storage, and safe disposal methods. This program is expected to foster wise medication habits from an early age and contribute to the development of a health-conscious society.
