Abstract

Dental caries remains a significant health problem among young children, especially in kindergarten.Data indicate a high prevalence of caries among children aged 4-6 years in Indonesia, which is attributed to a lack of knowledge about dental hygiene, improper toothbrushing techniques, and a habit of consuming sugary foods. This community service activity was conducted as an effort to detect and prevent dental issues early on, as childhood is a critical period for establishing healthy lifestyle habits. The objectives of this activity are: (1) To conduct early detection of dental caries; (2) To enhance children's and teachers' knowledge about oral health, and (3) To train proper brushing techniques through interactive educational approaches. The community service was conducted at Dharma Wanita Kindergarten, Kediri, involving 40 children aged 4–6 years. The methods used included: (1) Dental examinations, (2) Interactive education through lectures, demonstrations of toothbrushing using audio- visual media such as videos on proper toothbrushing techniques, jaw models (phantoms), and educational games, and (3) Knowledge assessment through pretest-posttest questionnaires. Data were analysed using quantitative descriptive analysis. The results showed that 72% of students had dental caries. Following the education, there was an improvement in students' understanding of how to maintain dental and oral health, as well as how to brush their teeth properly. The toothbrushing demonstration successfully improved the children's skills, with 95% able to practise the correct technique. Teachers responded positively to the programme. This activity was effective in increasing awareness and promoting dental health practices among preschool children. Collaboration between health workers and schools is essential for the sustainability of the programme. Recommendations: (1) Regular monitoring by the community health centre, (2) Integration of dental health materials into the early childhood education curriculum, and (3) Development of school dental health cadres.

Abstract

Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini dilatarbelakangi oleh urgensi tingginya kerentanan remaja terhadap bahaya penyalahgunaan NAPZA di Kabupaten Kediri, khususnya di Kecamatan Wates, yang didukung oleh data kriminalitas setempat yang menunjukkan peningkatan kasus pada kelompok usia pelajar. Tujuan kegiatan adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan, membentuk sikap kritis, serta melatih keterampilan praktis siswa SMPN 1 Wates dalam mencegah dan menolak penyalahgunaan NAPZA. Metode pelaksanaan menggunakan pendekatan interaktif dan partisipatif, yang terdiri dari empat komponen utama: (1) ceramah disertai diskusi, (2) simulasi keterampilan menolak (refusal skills), (3) diskusi kelompok terpumpun, dan (4) pembuatan komitmen bersama. Kegiatan ini menyasar 40 siswa kelas VII-IX SMPN 1 Wates dan dilaksanakan pada tanggal 19 Agustus 2025 di aula sekolah. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan yang sangat signifikan, dimana nilai rata-rata pretes sebesar 46,25 meningkat drastis menjadi 99,75 pada postes, yang menunjukkan efektivitas metode yang diterapkan. Simpulan dari kegiatan ini adalah bahwa pendekatan edukasi yang interaktif, praktis, dan melibatkan partisipasi aktif peserta terbukti mampu menanamkan pemahaman mendalam serta membangun kepercayaan diri dan komitmen peserta untuk menjauhi NAPZA. Untuk menjaga keberlanjutan, direkomendasikan integrasi materi pencegahan NAPZA ke dalam kurikulum sekolah, pembentukan dan pelatihan kader peer educator, serta kolaborasi strategis dengan orang tua dan instansi terkait seperti BNN dan Puskesmas.

Abstract

The accumulation of non-biodegradable plastic waste in Temporary Storage Sites (TPS) is a critical issue across various regions, including Wates Village, Kediri Regency. The actively operating TPS has not been optimized for advanced management of plastic waste, thereby posing a potential environmental pollution risk. This Community Service (PkM) program aims to address this problem by innovating BOTRIK (Ecobrick Bottles) as aesthetic, sustainable field decorations. The implementation method includes four stages: (1) licensing and coordination with stakeholders; (2) preparation of materials and tools; (3) execution, consisting of collection, sorting, washing, and ecobrick production; and (4) participatory evaluation. The program involved 23 KKN students, the village government, TPS managers, and local community members. As a result, over 55 kg of plastic waste was successfully processed into approximately 175 ecobricks, which were then assembled into two permanent field decoration units in floral and geometric shapes. The impacts achieved include a significant reduction in plastic waste volume at the TPS, increased community capacity in waste management, and the creation of new aesthetic value in public spaces. The BOTRIK program not only demonstrates the effectiveness of ecobricks as a community-based waste solution but also offers a replicable model for other regions. Program sustainability is recommended through the integration of village policies, the establishment of a dedicated waste bank, and the diversification of ecobrick products with economic value.
