Dental and oral health education to primary school children is one of the efforts to improve the health of the teeth inchildren for the preventive and promotive aspects. The choice of demonstration method on dental and oral healtheducation to support increasing understanding of the child, with doing practice the correct way to brush teeth. Thepurpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of oral health education to decrease plaque index at sixth gradeelementary school students. This research is a quasi-field experimental design with pre and posttest with control group.Subjects consisted of all sixth grade students in the village Padang Loang, District Patampanua, Pinrang. With clusterrandom sampling got 49 students. Data were analyzed using t-test. The results showed that one week after illuminationwas applied value of plaque decline 2.269 at the treatment group. While the control group have increasing value ofplaque 0.485. The data indicate that there are effects of oral and dental health education demonstration method insixth grade elementary school students. It was concluded that the introduction of the importance of oral health as ahealth maintenance efforts should be done from an early ages, it needs good cooperation between students, teachersand parents.

BACKGROUND: Overall body health is influenced a lot by teeth and mouth. Dental health education in schools through total quality management (TQM) is a non-formal education system for school communities by learning by doing to change their behavior from being less profitable to be beneficial for their oral health. AIM: This study aims to analyze the effect of dental health education with a TQM approach on the behavior of dental and oral health management, and the status of the oral hygiene index simplified (OHIS) in elementary school students. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The design of that project was a quasi-experimental design with a pre-post-test design with a control group design. The number of study population was 80 children that were selected. The sample was divided into two groups, the intervention group consisted of 40 children who were given intervention (dental health education with TQM approach) and the control group consisted of 40 children who were not given intervention. Data analysis used univariable, bivariable, and multivariate using paired samples t-test and independent t-test. RESULTS: The statistical findings showed that there were differences in behavior and oral hygiene status after dental health education through the TQM approach to students (p < 0.05). There was an effect of dental health education through the TQM approach on OHIS status (p <0.05). Dental health education using the TQM approach influenced changes in behavior and OHI-S status (p = 0.001). The finding of the analysis showed that in the intervention group, there were differences in the average behavior and oral hygiene status from pre-test to post-test I (p = 0.001). However, there was no difference between post 1 and post-test II (p = 1.00). In the intervention group, there was a difference in this status from pre-test to post-test 1 (p = 0.001). While in the control group, there was no difference in the average behavior from pre-test to post-test I and from post-test I to post-test II. There was a difference in the mean OHIS status from pre-test to post-test 1 and from post-test 1 to post-test 2 in the intervention group and the control group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Dental health education using the TQM approach has influenced changes in behavior and OHIS status of elementary school students in central Aceh districts.

Background and purpose: Dental caries is a problem that often arises in children. One contributing factor is the child's behavior. Behavior began to form of knowledge, and knowledge to stimulate a change in attitude and action. The knowledge of elementary school children about dental health at the level of bad and less. Children have characteristics consistent with the cognitive development, is one of the aspects to be considered in determining the appropriate target education and the education methods will be used. The purpose of this education is to see the difference in the effectiveness of storytelling method and role play method as an method of dental and oral health education on a 3rd grade elementary school. Material and Methods: The research method was quasi experimental with pretest and posttest design. Samples were taken by using purposive sampling technique with a sample of 54 students in grades 3 SDN 22 Andalas Padang. The samples were divided into 2 groups with different treatment, 27 students with storytelling method and 27 students with role play method. The level of knowledge was measured through filled questionnaires before and after education. Analysis of the data used is paired T test and independent T test (p <0.05). Results and conclusions: results analysis of test showed a significant increase in knowledge (p <0.05) after being given an education on each method with a significance value of 0.000. The average change knowledge in the storytelling method was 14.26 ± 4.09 while the role play method was 17.96 ± 3.99. There are differences in effectiveness between the two methods of education to increase knowledge with a significance value of 0.001 (p <0.05). The conclusion of this study is role play as a method of dental and oral health education is an effective method to increasing knowledge.

Correct teeth brushing behavior in elementary school children in Indonesia is 2.8%, and in Central Java, 1.7%. The influencing factor is the lack of information sources, so it is essential to carry out dental and oral health education, "Smart dental card game model" provides learning to children through game methods so that the learning process is more exciting and enjoyable. To produce a gamification-based dental and oral health education model called "Smart dental card game model" to increase dental health maintenance knowledge and decrease the debris index score in elementary school children. Research and development (R&D) and model trials using quasi-experiment pre-test and post-test with control sample design groups were divided into two groups, 28 intervention group students and 28 control group students. The dependent variable is the knowledge and debris index of elementary school students; the independent variable is the Smart dental card game model. The sample size was calculated by using the slovin formula. Data were tested using the interclass correlation coefficient test, Anova, Wilcoxon, Mann Whitney. The smart dental card game was appropriate as a guideline in the learning process to increase elementary school students' knowledge of 2,304 ± 9.07 and reduce the debris index of 0.419 ± 0.68 compared to the control group flipchart media and dental phantom. Smart dental card game is useful to increase dental health maintenance knowledge of elementary school students

Abstract: Basic Health Research of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia showed that 93% of Indonesian children experience dental caries. Dental health education (DHE) is the provision of information in the form of a comprehensive understanding of dental and oral health and the determinants that affect individuals and communities. Giving DHE to children must be done in an appropriate and effective way. This study was aimed to to determine the effectiveness of DHE using audio-visual media to elementary school students. This was a literature review study using the PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Clinical Key databases. Then the literatures were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and a critical appraisal was carried out to obtain relevant and worthy literatures. After going through the study selection, nine literatures were accepted. All literatures showed an increase in students' knowledge about dental and oral health after the DHE using audio-visual media. In conclusion, elementary school students' knowledge about dental and oral health increased significantly after DHE using audio-visual media.Keywords: dental health education (DHE); audio visual media; elementary school’s students Abstrak: Hasil Riskesdas Kementrian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia menunjukkan 93% anak Indonesia mengalami karies gigi.
