<![CDATA[Independence and character education are important aspects in children's development, one of which is the ability to take care of their own health. Based on the condition of children in the UPT Perlindungan dan Pelayanan Sosial Petirahan Anak (PPSPA) Bima Sakti Kota Batu who have many dental problems, the community service team implemented a dental and oral health education program aimed at increasing knowledge and independence so that oral health improves. The program is implemented with the Quantum Learning method which is implemented through the Dental Explorer, Journaling, and Growth Game programs. The results of the pre-test and post-test showed an increase in the average score to 81,53. Analysis of the results of journaling showed that more than 90% of children could understand how to fill in the journal and increased independence in terms of brushing teeth and consuming healthy food. The results of the child's debris index improved for the better, namely 0 people in the bad category, 18 people in the medium category, and 29 people in the good category. It can be concluded that there is an increase in knowledge, a change in independence for the better, and an increase in oral hygiene as seen from the decrease in the debris index value.]]>
