Growth monitoring of toddler in Indonesia is an essential thing that should be done by a mother using the Child Health Card (Kartu Menuju Sehat/KMS). This card purpose is also to detect the growth interference of a toddler. However, the KMS cannot be directly filled by working mother because sometimes it is not her who takes the toddler to integrated service posts (pos pelayanan terpadu/posyandu). The iPosyandu application is an application that makes it easy for mothers at any time and anywhere to monitor their children growth. The iPosyandu application can be downloaded at Play Store for free. This research aims to see the knowledge and perception of the mothers in growth monitoring of the toddlers using iPosyandu. The descriptive study with cross-sectional approach conducted in October 2017 in Pasawahan Kidul village, Purwakarta regency. The subjects were 81 mothers with toddler recruited using purposive sampling technique. Results showed that 56% of mothers in 20–35 years old group and 42% of mothers with 2–3 children had only moderate knowledge. Thirty-eight percent of mothers 20–35 years old, 25% with 2–3 children and mostly had junior high school education level agreed that iPosyandu is beneficial. In conclusion, mothers who have sufficient knowledge would agree to use iPosyandu to monitor the growth of toddlers. PENGETAHUAN DAN PERSEPSI IBU DALAM MEMANTAU PERTUMBUHAN BALITA MENGGUNAKAN APLIKASI IPOSYANDUPemantauan pertumbuhan balita di Indonesia merupakan hal yang penting dilakukan oleh ibu dengan menggunakan Kartu Menuju Sehat (KMS) yang bertujuan mengetahui gangguan pertumbuhan balita secara dini. Akan tetapi, KMS tersebut tidak dapat secara langsung dilihat oleh ibu yang sedang bekerja karena terkadang bukan ibu yang mengantar balita ke posyandu. Oleh karena itu, aplikasi iPosyandu merupakan suatu aplikasi yang memudahkan ibu setiap saat dan di mana pun berada untuk memantau pertumbuhan berat badan balita berdasar atas usia. Aplikasi iPosyandu dapat diunduh pada Play Store secara gratis. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengetahuan dan persepsi ibu dalam memantau pertumbuhan balita menggunakan aplikasi iPosyandu. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Oktober 2017 pada ibu yang memiliki balita di Desa Pasawahan Kidul, Kabupaten Purwakarta. Subjek penelitian adalah 81 ibu dengan balita yang diambil menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 56% ibu dalam kelompok 20–35 tahun dan 42% ibu dengan 2–3 anak hanya memiliki pengetahuan sedang. Tiga puluh delapan persen ibu berusia 20–35 tahun, 25% dengan 2–3 anak, dan sebagian besar berpendidikan sekolah menengah pertama setuju bahwa iPosyandu bermanfaat.

Imunisasi merupakan upaya mengurangi morbiditas dan mortalitas anak, namun masih banyak anak yang belum menerima imunisasi. Angka kematian balita di dunia yang disebabkan oleh penyakit yang bisa dicegah dengan imunisasi (PD3I) mencapai 1,4 juta orang per tahun. Dikhawatirkan PD3I ini dapat menyebar dengan mudah dari anak yang terinfeksi ke anak yang tidak diimunisasi atau tidak memiliki kekebalan terhadap penyakit tersebut. Hal ini berisiko meningkatkan angka mortalitas anak Tujuan Penelitian: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan kepatuhan orang tua, terutama ibu, dalam memberikan imunisasi dasar lengkap kepada bayi. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif non eksperimental dengan desain cross sectional. Responden sebanyak 100 orang ibu yang diambil menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Pengambilan data dilakukan di Kelurahan Meteseh menggunakan kuesioner yang sudah valid dan reliabel. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji Chi-Square. Hasil: Analisis bivariat menunjukkan bahwa usia, pekerjaan, jumlah paritas, agama , dan pengetahuan ibu tentang Kejadian Ikutan Pasca Imunisasi (KIPI) tidak berhubungan dengan kepatuhan orang tua dalam memberikan imunisasi dasar lengkap pada bayi (p>0,05). Diskusi: Penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa kematangan usia ibu tidak selalu berhubungan dengan kepatuhannya dalam memberikan imunisasi dasar. Kepatuhan ini juga tidak berhubungan dengan oleh kesibukan ibu dalam bekerja maupun mengurus anak serta pengalamannya menjadi seorang ibu. Adanya keyakinan pada agama tertentu mengenai imunisasi, serta pengetahuan yang dimiliki ibu mengenai KIPI juga terbukti tidak berhubungan  dengan kepatuhan ibu dalam memberikan imunisasi. Kesimpulan: Faktor demografi ibu tidak senantiasa berhubungan dengan kepatuhannya dalam memberikan imunisasi dasar lengkap pada bayi, namun imunisasi ini tetap perlu diberikan sebagai upaya mengurangi risiko bayi tertular PD3I.    Kata Kunci: ibu, imunisasi, kepatuhan Factors Correlated with Parental Adherence in Providing Complete Basic Immunization  ABSTRACTImmunization is an effort to reduce child morbidity and mortality, but many children still have not received immunizations. The mortality rate for children under five in the world caused by immunization-preventable diseases reaches 1.4 million people per year. It is feared that the immunization-preventable diseases can spread easily from infected children to non-immunized children or have no immunity to the disease. This has the risk of increasing child mortality. Objective: This research aims to reveal the factors related to parents' adherence, especially mothers, in providing complete basic immunization to infants. Methods: This research is a non-experimental quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. Respondents were 100 mothers who were taken using the purposive sampling technique. Data were collected in Meteseh Village using a valid and reliable questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Results: Bivariate analysis indicated that mother's age, occupation, parity, religion, and knowledge of Adverse event following immunization (AEFI) were not correlated with parental compliance in providing complete basic immunization to infants (p>0.05). Discussion: This research proves that mother’s age is not always correlated with adherence to basic immunization. This adherence is also not correlated with the mother's activities in working or taking care of children and her experience of being a mother. Certain religious beliefs regarding immunization and mother’s knowledge about AEFI are also proven not to be correlated with maternal adherence to giving immunizations. Conclusion: Maternal demographic factors are not always correlated with adherence to providing complete basic immunization to infants, but the immunization still needs to be given to reduce the risk of infants contracting immunization-preventable diseases.Keywords: mother, immunization, adherence

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).

Abstract: Saliva is a complex fluid composed of a mixture of major and minor salivary glands in the oral cavity. The role of saliva is as a protective base between the lining of the oral cavity and toxins. Smoking can affect the physiological function of saliva because smoking destroys molecules in saliva that are useful in protecting the oral cavity, therefore, lack of sensitivity and changes in the sense receptor of taste occur. Saliva acidity setting includes protein, bicarbonate, and phosphate systems. This study was aimed to determine the salivary pH of the habitual smokers among the laborers at Bitung Port. This was an observational descriptive study using a cross sectional design. Respondents were 30 laborers (males and females) who were habitual smokers, aged 18-45 years old obtained by using purposive sampling technique. The results showed that 13 respondents (43.3%) had normal salivary pH (pH 6.4-7) and 17 respondents (56.7%) had basic salivary pH (pH >7). The average pH of all respondents was 7.18. Conclusion: Laborers who were habitual smokers at Bitung port had normal or basic salivary pH.Keywords: salivary pH, laborers, habitual smokers Abstrak: Saliva merupakan cairan mulut yang kompleks terdiri dari campuran sekresi kelenjar saliva mayor dan minor di dalam rongga mulut dan berperan sebagai pelindung basa antara lapisan mulut dan toksin. Saliva memiliki kemampuan dalam pengaturan derajat keasaman yang berperan penting dalam menjaga nilai pH di lingkungan mulut seseorang. Merokok dapat memengaruhi fisiologi saliva karena merokok dapat menghancurkan molekul dalam saliva yang berguna dalam melindungi rongga mulut sehingga akan menyebabkan kurangnya sensitivitas dan perubahan reseptor dari indra perasa. Pengaturan keasaman saliva meliputi sistem protein, bikarbonat, dan fosfat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pH saliva pada buruh perokok di pelabuhan Bitung. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif observasional dengan menggunakan desain potong lintang. Subjek penelitian ini ialah buruh perokok di pelabuhan Bitung dengan jenis kelamin laki-laki dan perempuan berusia 18-45 tahun. Terdapat 30 responden yang diperoleh dengan mengunakan teknik purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan bahwa 13 responden (43,3%) dengan pH saliva normal (pH berkisar 6,4-7), dan 17 responden (56,7%) dengan pH basa (pH >7). Nilai rerata pH responden sebesar 7,18. Simpulan: Buruh perokok di pelabuhan Bitung memiliki pH saliva normal atau basa.Kata kunci: pH saliva, buruh, perokok
