Dental and oral health issues are an important concern in health development, one of which is caused by vulnerable groups of school-aged children from dental health disorders. School age is age important in growth and physical development of the child. This period is also known as a critical period because at this time the children start developing habits that usually tend to settle into adulthood. One of them is the habit of maintaining oral hygiene. This research aims to find out the level of knowledge on oral health and the level of oral hygiene elementary school children. This research use analytic observational approach cross sectional (cut the latitude) is a design by doing observations at the same time. This research was carried out in primary schools of the country Tuguran sub-district of Sleman Regency Limestone Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Total sample of 60 children of class III, IV, and V were taken with purposive sampling method. Data collection using the questionnaire and examination of oral hygiene.

Background: Children in primary schools use school bags to carry study material, although the heavy bags are often associated with musculoskeletal problems, especially back pain. This practice requires strength, which significantly changes the body posture and walking pattern, subsequently leading to the incidence of back pain as a side effect. The aim of this study, therefore, is to analyze the differences in bag loads between elementary school children in urban and suburban area, and also analyze the relationship with the occurrence of back pain. Design and methods: This was a cross sectional study, which used stratified random sampling to choose 2 elementary schools each representing the urban and suburban areas. Furthermore, a total sample of 164 students were selected, whose school bag weight were measured for 5 consecutive days, particularly in the morning on respondents arrival at school. Moreover, the occurrence of back pain was evaluated using a modified Nordic map, and data analysis required the use of independent sample analysis t test and χ2 test.Results: The results showed the presence of highly significant differences in the school bags weight of respondents in the urban and suburban areas, as well as between schools using the 2013 curriculum and otherwise. Conclusions: In conclusion, there is a correlation between the weight measured and the occurrence of back pain, hence the 2013 curriculum is recommended to be adopted by all elementary schools. Also, the use of lockers to store items used at school repeatedly by children is also highly encouraged.

Abstract: Poor oral hygiene could cause a variety of diseases in the oral cavity. Oral diseases can occur in various age groups, including children. World Health Organization survey showed that 90% of the world population suffer from gingivitis; 80% of them are children under 12 years of age. Gingivitis is an early stage of periodontal disease in the form of gingival inflammation due to poor oral dental hygiene. Therefore, biofilms are accumulated on the plaques along the gingival margins. This study was aimed to determine the oral dental hygiene and the incidence of gingivitis in elementary school children. This was a literature review study using three databases, namely: Google Scholar, PubMed, and Digital Reference Garba. The results obtained nine journals that were relevant to the topic of discussion. Moreover, oral dental hygiene was influenced by knowledge of oral dental health and oral dental hygiene maintenance behavior such as tooth brushing and diet. The incidence of gingivitis among elementary school children ranged from 74.4% to 91.94%. In conclusion, oral hygiene status of elementary school children was in the medium category and the incidence of gingivitis among them was high.Keywords: oral hygiene, incidence of gingivitis, elementary school children Abstrak: Kebersihan gigi mulut yang kurang dapat menyebabkan berbagai masalah dalam rongga mulut.

Inadequate oral health knowledge and awareness is more likely to cause oral diseases among all age groups, including children. Reports about the oral health awareness and oral hygiene practices of children in Bangladesh are insufficient. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the oral health awareness and practices of junior school children in Mathbaria upazila of Pirojpur District, Bangladesh. The study covered 150 children aged 5 to 12 years of age from three primary schools. The study reveals that the students have limited awareness about oral health and poor knowledge of oral hygiene habits. Oral health awareness and hygiene practices amongst the school going children was found to be very poor and create a much-needed niche for implementing school-based oral health awareness and education projects/programs.

Aim. To determine oral hygiene practices, knowledge, and experience of dental caries and gingival problems among urban and rural primary schoolchildren in Lilongwe District, Malawi. Methodology. This was an analytical and quantitative descriptive cross-sectional study. Four urban and four rural primary schools were conveniently sampled. Pupils aged 11–14 years (n = 409) were recruited using self-administered structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS program v20.0. Results. Out of 409 pupils, most of them had knowledge that dental caries is caused by consumption of sugary foodstuffs (91.4%), toothache is a symptom of dental caries (77.6%), gingivitis is caused by ineffective tooth brushing (92.7%), and gingival bleeding is a sign of gingivitis (85.3%). Most pupils experienced toothache (30.8%); many of them had parents with secondary education and above (35.0%) compared to those with primary education (23.5%). 24.4% experienced gingival bleeding with higher percentages from urban (30.1%) than rural (18.5%) schools. Plastic toothbrush users (95%) overshadowed chewing stick users (24.9%). The use of chewing stick was significantly higher in rural (49%) than in urban (1.9%) schools. Likewise, tooth brushing before bed was significantly higher in rural (33%) than in urban (17.2%) pupils. The use of toothpaste during tooth brushing was significantly higher among urban (91.9%) than among rural (64%) pupils. The prevalence of tongue cleaning was 70.2%, and the differences were significantly higher among pupils who had parents with secondary and higher education in urban schools and among pupils aged 11–12 years in comparison with their counterparts. Conclusions. Most pupils reported cleaning their teeth regularly, mostly using plastic toothbrush rather than chewing stick, using toothpaste, and having adequate knowledge about dental caries and gingival disease, and a quarter of them had suffered from these diseases with evidence of rural-urban disparities. Integration of oral health in school health promotion program and further research on its impact on oral health status are recommended.
