COVID-19 cases continue to spread in every level of society, including dental and oral therapists. The dental and oral therapist's work zone that is in contact with droplets and saliva is the transmission of COVID-19 transmission. Prevention of transmission of COVID-19 to dental and oral therapists is carried out through the application of standard precaution which is influenced by the level of knowledge of each individual. Lack of knowledge causes a person to have poor standard precaution applications. To determine the relationship between the level of knowledge of standard precaution with the application of standard precaution to dental and oral therapists in preventing the transmission of the COVID-19 virus.This research is an analytic survey with a cross sectional design. The study was carried out in January-February 2022. Sampling using proportionate stratified random sampling technique with a sample of 130 people. Data analysis using Kendall’s tau. The results showed a p-value of 0.00 (p<0.005). Test (t) = 0.419. Most of the respondents have a moderate level of knowledge (38.5%), while the level of application of standard precaution is mostly in good criteria (66.9%). The level of knowledge of standard precaution is related the application of standard precaution of dental and oral therapists in preventing the transmission of the COVID-19 virus with a fairly strong positive correlation.

The results of the Basic Health Research (RISKESDAS) in 2018 showed that 67.8% of the Indonesian population aged more than 15 years experienced periodontal disease such as periodontitis. The incidence of periodontitis disease can occur and become more severe in the presence of systemic factors such as diabetes mellitus. People with diabetes mellitus experience several health complications caused by increased blood sugar levels, blood vessels, and nerves, including the gums. This can weaken the bone surrounding the teeth and gums, and increase the risk of other oral diseases, such as tooth loss and dental caries caused by the weakening of tooth attachment to the gums and a decrease in the rate of saliva in the mouth. Efforts to prevent the occurrence of periodontal disease and other oral and dental disease infections in patients with diabetes mellitus are by conducting health education and monitoring programs for patients. The goal is to increase knowledge, willingness, awareness, compliance and community participation in maintaining and maintaining dental health independently. The methods used in this service are interviews, observations and the implementation of training and health monitoring for respondents. Based on the results of the activities that have been carried out in the service, the respondents gave a positive response and there was an increase in knowledge, awareness and motivation in maintaining their health

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a significant global health issue, affecting approximately 700 million people worldwide. This study investigates the periodontal health of CKD patients in Banyumanik District, Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia, where the prevalence of CKD is notably high. A cross-sectional analysis involving 44 CKD patients from three community health centers was conducted. Data were collected through medical records and periodontal examinations using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) and the Gingival Index (GI). Results indicated that 70% of participants exhibited moderate to severe gingival inflammation, with an average GI score of 1.75. The majority required phase I periodontal treatment, including scaling and root planning. Significant correlations were found between gingival inflammation and factors such as hemodialysis history and the duration of CKD. Patients undergoing hemodialysis showed higher levels of gingival inflammation compared to those who were not. The findings highlight the critical need for regular periodontal assessments and interventions in CKD patients to mitigate oral health complications and improve overall quality of life. This study underscores the importance of integrating oral health management into the care of CKD patients, particularly in regions with high prevalence rates.

Pregnant women are at increased risk of oral health problems, including dental caries and gingivitis. This study aimed to examine the association between oral hygiene knowledge, attitudes, and practices and oral hygiene status among pregnant women attending antenatal care at Sragi Health Center, Pekalongan Regency, Indonesia. A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted among 124 pregnant women selected using accidental sampling. Data on oral health knowledge, attitudes, and practices were collected using a structured questionnaire comprising 10 items per domain. Oral hygiene status was assessed using the Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHI-S). Associations between behavioral variables and OHI-S categories (good, moderate, poor) were analyzed using Kendall's Tau-B. Most participants had primary-level education (58%), good knowledge (58%), good attitudes (65%), and poor oral health practices (65%). Most respondents showed a moderate OHI-S status (61%). No significant association was found between educational level and OHI-S (p = 0.655). Significant associations were observed between knowledge and OHI-S (p = 0.017), attitudes and OHI-S (p = 0.010), and practices and OHI-S (p = 0.032). Knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to oral health were associated with oral hygiene status among pregnant women, whereas educational level was not significantly associated with OHI-S.
