Background Despite remarkable reduction in the prevalence of dental caries in developed countries, dental caries is still a highly prevalent disease among children in developing countries. Objectives To estimate the oral health status of children under five years of age by assessing decayed, missing and filled teeth (dmft) status of primary teeth along with their tooth cleaning and food habits. Materials and Methods This cross-sectional study on oral health status of children under five years of age was carried out among 107 children attending the Outpatient Department of Sapporo Dental College and Hospital, situated at Uttara, Dhaka. Data was collected both in English and Bengali with a pre-tested structured questionnaire and a checklist. Results Dental caries (d) was found in 69.2% of the children while missing (m) and filled (f) teeth were recorded in 14% and 21.5% of the children respectively. Almost three quarter children (72%) demonstrated an overall dmft score 1 or higher; whereas one third children (28%) demonstrated dmft score 0 or free from any form of dental decay, missing teeth and dental filling. Increased age of the children was directly associated (p<0.05) with the number of decayed, missing or filled teeth. The study also revealed that correct method of brushing was practiced by only 44% of the children and recommended brushing time (1-3 minutes) was done by 37.3% only. Children who were assisted by their parents during brushing experienced less caries compared to the children who brushed their teeth by themselves and this finding was statistically significant (p<0.05). Taking snacks between meals was preferred by 106 children and among them 97.2% did not clean their mouth after having snacks. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/updcj.v1i1.13945 Update Dent.

This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge, action, and self-medication patterns carried out by patients to overcome complaints of toothache in mothers of children under five at the Posyandu in the Penfui Health Center area. This type of analytical research with a Cross-Sectional approach. The sample of this study used accidental sampling, namely mothers of children under five in the Posyandu in the Penfui Health Center area who had experienced a toothache and did self-medication with a sample of 60 respondents. The results obtained for knowledge included in the good criteria, namely 71.70%, the action including the fewer criteria, namely 51.70%, while the self-medication pattern was included in the fewer criteria, namely 65.00%. The results of statistical analysis showed that there was a relationship between knowledge and self-medication pattern with a p-value of 0.014, while for action there was no relationship because the p-value was 0.998. Although the results of the level of knowledge are good, this self-medication pattern must be supported by good and correct actions and self-medication patterns for toothache complaints. It was concluded that there was a relationship between knowledge and self-medication patterns for toothache complaints carried out by mothers of children under five in the Penfui Health Center area.
