Abstract

Cross-infection is one of the main risks faced in medical procedures, including tooth extraction in health facilities such as the dental clinic of the Health Center. This infection can occur through direct contact with blood, saliva, or non-sterile medical equipment, as well as through transmission from patients to medical personnel or vice versa. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of efforts to prevent and control cross-infection in tooth extraction procedures at the Dental Clinic of the Kassi - Kassi Health Center. The methods used in this study include counseling to medical personnel regarding cross-infection prevention protocols, including hand hygiene, use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and sterilization of equipment. Evaluations were conducted before and after counseling through questionnaires filled out by the participants. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in understanding, awareness, and implementation of cross-infection prevention protocols. Before counseling, only 60% of participants had a good understanding of cross-infection, while after counseling, this figure increased to 90%. Improvements were also seen in awareness of hand hygiene, knowledge of PPE use, sterilization procedures, implementation of SOPs, and handling of high-risk patients. The conclusion of this study shows that counseling and strict implementation of protocols can significantly reduce the risk of cross-infection in tooth extraction procedures. Therefore, it is recommended that similar counseling be held routinely to ensure consistent and sustainable implementation of infection prevention in the Puskesmas environment.

Abstract

Tartar is a common oral health problem among adolescents. Tartar forms from hardened plaque due to a lack of proper and regular brushing habits. If not treated early, this condition can lead to serious disorders such as gingivitis (gum inflammation) and periodontitis (damage to the supporting tissue of the teeth), which impact adolescents' quality of life and self-confidence. Therefore, education about the dangers of tartar and the importance of maintaining oral health is essential, especially in schools. This community service activity aims to increase adolescents' knowledge and awareness of the dangers of tartar and equip them with proper toothbrushing skills. The activity was held on July 5, 2025, at SMP Negeri 1 Manuju, Bilalang Village, Gowa Regency, and was attended by seventh and eighth grade students. The methods used included interactive education, simulations of toothbrushing techniques according to health standards, and the distribution of leaflets as additional information that students can access again. Evaluation was carried out through pre- and post-tests to measure knowledge gains, as well as direct observation of toothbrushing practices. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in students' knowledge scores, namely 31.3 points (from an average of 53.4 to 84.7). Furthermore, 92% of students were able to practice correct toothbrushing techniques. These results indicate that an educational approach combined with simulations and visual media is effective in increasing understanding and changing clean and healthy lifestyle behaviors in adolescents. This activity is expected to become a model for sustainable dental health education in schools and be replicated elsewhere.
