A qualitative prospective cross-sectional study was done in 168 Learners of I MBBS by an interventional session on the topic through General lecture and demonstration. Learners were assessed prior and after the interventional session by same validated questionnaire. Perceptions of learners were also taken. The obtained data were compared and its significance was analysed by Chi-square test using Epi info 7.1 software.The pre and post-test scores showed a significant improvement of 64 percent on average with p value less than 0.001 indicating that the session was fruitful. 80% of learners also opined that the session stimulated interest in the subject and improved their dissection skills.An interventional session on “Awareness of dissection skills and tools” in the initial phase would increase the Learners performing quality dissections with ease.

Background : Dot, yang juga dikenal sebagai dummy, soother atau pacifier, adalah pengganti puting susu (ibu) yang biasanya terbuat dari karet atau plastik. Minum susu menggunakan dot menjelang tidur mulai menjadi kebiasaan yang sering kita jumpai. Padahal kebiasaan itu akan beresiko pada gigi anak. pada saat tidur kandungan gula dari minuman akan tersimpan dan menggenang lama di dalam mulut.  Dari situlah bakteri akan tumbuh subur pada lubang gigi.  Ditambah saat anak tidur air liur akan mengalami pengurangan. Jadi, genangan air minum mengandung gula tertahan oleh dot diantara lidah, gigi, langit-langit dan disekitar bibir . Hal seperti itulah gigi anak menjadi berlubang. Sindrom tersebut di dalam medis disebut nursing bottle caries atau Early Childhood CariesObjectivies : Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui Dampak Penggunan Dot Terhadap Sindrom Early Childhood Caries pada Anak usia 3-6 tahun di TK Nurul Huda Desa.

Analisa Univariat untuk mengetahui distribusi frekuensi dari setiap variable independent, b) Analisa Bivariat untuk mengetahui hubungan antara variable independent. Dalam analisa ini dilakukan pengujian analitik dengan uji chi-square (α = 0.05).Result : Hasil uji chi-square test di atas didapatkan nilai signifikansi p-value sebesar 0.000. Karena nilai signifikansi 0.000 < (0.05) maka  H0 ditolak H1 diterima artinya ada Dampak Penggunan Dot Terhadap Sindrom Early Childhood Caries pada Anak usia 3-6 tahun di TK Nurul Huda Desa.
