Abstract

PPTQ Hasan Munadi is an Islamic boarding school located in Badengan District, Ponorogo, East Java. The journey to the school requires a long travel distance, with winding roads and a considerable distance from the city. This situation leads to limited healthcare facilities, particularly dental clinics, and infrequent oral health education activities in the surrounding area. As a result, many students at the boarding school have a limited understanding of the importance of maintaining oral health, including the proper techniques for brushing teeth. The aim of the health education program at Pondok Pesantren PPTQ Hasan Munadi is to provide dental and oral health education and training to students from an early age (7-9 years old). This health education program used pre-post test to asses the program’s success. Before the health education intervention, students are given a pre-test. Following this, an educational session is conducted using a lecture method supported by media such as a phantom, video, and flipchart. Next session, a post-test is administered to assess any changes in the students' knowledge about maintaining oral health. Data analysis reveals that 49% of the students had a moderate level of knowledge regarding dental and oral health before the intervention. After the educational session, there was an increase of 7.3% in the number of students who achieved a good level of knowledge. This program indicates a significant improvement in the students' knowledge regarding oral health following the educational intervention.

Abstract

Background: Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a white matter lesion of the brain that can cause a variety of neurological disorders, including mental retardation and communication disorders. This condition often presents challenges in dental care due to the patient's limited ability to communicate and cooperate during dental procedures. Purpose: To address the management of multiple pulp necrosis in a child with periventricular leukomalacia. Method: A patient presented with a history of PVL, accompanied by mental retardation and communication disorders. Clinical and diagnostic examinations revealed severe pain with a high pain score, requiring comprehensive management. Given the patient's limited cooperation and the complexity of the procedure, treatment was performed under general anesthesia. The procedure included eliminating the source of infection, preserving the remaining teeth, and extracting teeth with poor prognosis. The entire procedure was completed in a single session without significant perioperative complications. Results: Post-procedure evaluation demonstrated a reduction in pain symptoms and improved eating ability, which positively impacted the patient's nutritional status. Patients with PVL who have intellectual disabilities and communication disorders require a specialized, individualized, and comprehensive approach to dental care. Conclusion: The use of general anesthesia is an effective and safe option for treating various dental infections in patients with limited cooperation, while improving quality of life through pain reduction, improved oral function, and improved nutritional status.
