Fixed orthodontic treatment is attached to the tooth surface. If this orthodontic treatment is attached to teeth that are difficult to clean, dental caries will occur due to a lack of dental and oral hygiene. For this reason, it is necessary to have someone's knowledge about maintaining oral and dental health, especially fixed orthodontic users. This study aims to determine the relationship between dental and oral health knowledge and caries rates in students using fixed orthodontics at Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta. This type of research is analytic observational and the research design is cross-sectional, with a population of 71 students using fixed orthodontics. This sampling technique is purposive sampling with the number of respondents using fixed orthodontics as many as 60 people. The results of the research on the analysis with the Kendall's-Tau test obtained a significant value = 0.000 <0.05. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between knowledge of oral health and dental hygiene with caries rates in Orthodontic Wearing students at Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta.

Abstract: Malocclusion is a form of occlusal disorders caused by irregular teeth growthas well as sizes and position of teeth. Malocclusion could create some disturbances in both physical and mental health of a person including problems in oral function, mastication, highly risk of trauma, periodontal diseases, and caries. Esthetically, malocclusion could affect a person’s appearances and psychological development especially in adolescent. Orthodontic treatment is performed to fix the malocclusion that could affect one’s oral health. The needs of orthodontic treatment itself can be leveled by using Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN). This study was aimed to obtain the needs of orthodontic treatment based on IOTN among students aged 12-13 years old at SMPN 1 Wori. This was an observational descriptive study with a cross sectional design. There were 30 respondents obtained by using purposive sampling technique. The need of treatment was leveled by using IOTN consisted of two components: aesthetic component (AC) and dental health component (DHC). The needs of orthodontic treatment measured with AC, 27 person (90%) were as follows: no need or little need for treatment in 27 students (90%); borderline need in 2 students (6.7%); and treatment required in 1 student (3.3%). The needs of orthodontic treatment based on DHC were as follows: no need or little need for treatment in 18 students (60%); borderline need in 8 students (26.7%); and treatment required in 4 students (13.3%).Keywords: malocclusion, needs of orthodontic treatment, IOTN. Abstrak: Maloklusi merupakan penyimpangan oklusi akibat tidak teraturnya pertumbuhan, posisi, serta ukuran gigi. Maloklusi dapat menyebabkan gangguan kesehatan fisik dan psikis, antara lain dapat mengganggu fungsi oral, mastikasi, berisiko tinggi terhadap trauma, penyakit periodontal, dan karies. Maloklusi secara estetis juga dapat memengaruhi penampilan wajah seseorang dan perkembangan psikologis terutama pada remaja. Perawatan ortodonsi ditujukan untuk memperbaiki maloklusi yang dapat memengaruhi kesehatan gigi dan rongga mulut. Perawatan ortodonsi yang tepat dapat dilihat dari tingkat kebutuhan perawatan ortodonsi yang diukur dengan Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kebutuhan perawatan ortodonsi berdasarkan IOTN pada siswa berusia 12 - 13 tahun di SMP N 1 Wori. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif observasional dengan desain potong lintang. Subjek penelitian berjumlah 30 siswa diperoleh dengan teknik purposive sampling. Kebutuhan perawatan ortodonsi menggunakan Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN) dengan dua komponen, yaitu Aesthetic Component (AC) dan Dental Health Component (DHC). Kebutuhan perawatan ortodonsi berdasarkan AC yaitu: 27 orang (90%) tidak atau butuh perawatan ringan; 2 orang (6,7%) perawatan borderline; dan 1 orang (3,3%) sangat butuh perawatan. Kebutuhan perawatan ortodonsi berdasarkan DHC yaitu: 18 orang (60%) tidak atau butuh perawatan ringan; 8 orang (26,7%) perawatan borderline, dan 4 orang (13,3%) sangat butuh perawatan.

The Relationship

Background: Missing or lost teeth after tooth extraction may lead to tooth decay and infection. Many cases of tooth loss will not be followed with prosthodontics or rehabilitative treatments. Patients might be aware of partial denture, however no concern to replace the missing teeth.Aims: This study was to determine the relationship between the levels of knowledge and interest in using the partial dentures.Methods: This study was an observational analytic survey with cross sectional design, conducted in October - November 2017. The work involved 60 patients who had pulled teeth at Kanina Dental Clinic, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, who had been selected using purposive sampling technique. Levels of knowledge and interest among the participants were assessed by a set of questionnaire. The data obtained was then analysed using Kendall's Tau test.Results: From the study, we found that 35 respondents had good knowledge and high interest to use partial dentures (58.3%), while the other 22 patients (40%) had been noted with less knowledge and poor maintenance. From Kendall's Tau test, we found a significant relationship between the patient's knowledge and partial removal denture maintenance of p value = 0.003. This study also highlights the role of patients’ peer to their decision to use the removable partial dentures.Conclusion: Respondents may consider loosing teeth affected to their physical aesthetics, masticatory system, and speaking comfort. Data shows the higher knowledge to the benefits of partial dentures the higher their interest in using removable partial dentures after tooth extraction.
