Abstract

Dental and oral health in Indonesia is still a health problem that requires attention. To address dental and oral health problems in Indonesia, particularly in school-age and adult groups, it is necessary to carry out promotive-preventive activities by inviting local universities and business entities that focus on dental and oral health. The most common dental and oral diseases are caries and periodontal disease. One of the strategies of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in reducing the number of dental caries sufferers is by declaring the "Carry Free Indonesia 2030" program. The lack of knowledge and awareness of the Indonesian population regarding dental hygiene and the difficulty of reaching information due to the geographical conditions in several regions in Indonesia which make it impossible to hamper the distribution of education. The Training of Trainer Program targets teachers and parents for 21 days of morning and evening toothbrushes, teaching children and adults about the benefits of good oral hygiene and showing them how to brush their teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. This program aims to provide comprehensive, applicable and sustainable education and knowledge about dental and oral health to school-age children in Indonesia.

Abstract

One way to develop health is community empowerment in the field of dental and oral health. Based on the 2018 Basic Health Research, it was reported that the prevalence of dental and oral problems in Indonesia is still very high. As many as 93% of school-aged children experience dental and oral problems. This is due to a lack of knowledge and lack of awareness of the Indonesian population regarding dental hygiene. In a series of activities for the 2023 National Dental Health Month, dental and oral health education programs are carried out in schools/School Health Programs. Method: The method is carried out using a cadre training program / Training of Trainers through zoom meetings for teachers and parents of students by providing dental and oral health material. Next, ask them to provide assistance with morning and evening toothbrushing activities for 21 days, teaching children about the benefits of good oral hygiene and showing them how to brush their teeth twice a day. It is preceded by a pretest and at the end of the delivery of the material a post test is given. The results of the evaluation of understanding of the material presented show that there is a significant difference in the pre-test and post-test of prospective cadres, which means that the cadres understand the material well. The new habit of brushing teeth has been quite successful from the uploaded photo documentation and students have recorded well for 21 days. This shows a change in behavior in maintaining dental and oral health.

Abstract

Background: Many pregnant women know less about maintaining healthy teeth and mouth. Pregnancy is a physiological process that causes changes in a woman's body physic and psycho. In order to uphold optimal oral health, it is imperative that dental treatment not be withheld. The dental management of pregnant patients necessitates the incorporation of specific considerations. Objective: This research aims to describe the factors which improve dental and oral health services for antenatal care. Materials and Methods: The analysis method used in this systematic review is descriptive. The strategy used to search for articles using PICO and literature search was conducted in June 2022. The data used in this research were tertiary obtained from previous researchers' study results. The source of tertiary data obtained in the article of the journal International Reputable. The literature search in this systematic review uses the following databases: Scopus, Science Direct, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Searching articles or journals use keywords and boolean operators (AND, OR, and NOT). The evaluation of the systematic review uses the PRISMA checklist to determine whether the studies have been reaching out and are similar to the purpose of a systematic review. The total number of studies was eight articles. Result: Pregnancy should not be considered an absolute reason to defer required dental care. Perceived need, knowledge, awareness, and socioeconomic were identified as factors that could increase visits and dental oral health services for pregnant women. Well-designed studies with reliable outcomes are required to confirm the findings described in this review. Conclusion: promoting dental care during pregnancy requires a multi-faceted approach that involves raising maternal awareness, garnering support from healthcare providers, addressing socioeconomic disparities, and dispelling misconceptions. By integrating oral health into prenatal care and implementing targeted educational programs, healthcare systems can improve dental care utilization among pregnant women, ultimately leading to better maternal and infant oral health outcomes.
