ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Eliminasi plak yang merupakan etiologi utama penyakit gigi karies dan periodontal menjadi kunci pencegahan penyakit gigi dan mulut. Penggunaan sumba yang sebelumnya telah terbukti dapat mendeteksi plak merupakan bahan yang mudah dijangkau oleh berbagai kalangan masyarakat. Kegiatan Pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan menyikat gigi dengan penggunaan sumba sebagai bahan untuk visualisasi plak gigiMetode: Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat dilakukan pada murid kelas 5 SDN 33/IV Penyengat Olak Kabupaten Muaro Jambi. Kegiatan diawali dengan penyuluhan kesehatan gigi dan mulut, demonstrasi dan praktik pembuatan disclosing solution atau plak detector dari sumba. Bimbingan menyikat gigi secara personal serta lomba gigi bersih sebagai positive reinforcementHasil: Peningkatan pengetahuan sebanyak 100% pada anak yang diberikan penyuluhan dan demonstrasi penggunaan sumba sebagai plak detector. Perbedaan bermakna skor plak (p=0,000) terlihat antrara sebelum dan sesudah penyuluhan, demonstrasi, praktik penggunaan sumba dan bimbingan menyikat gigiKesimpulan: Terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan dan peningkatan nilai skor plak setelah pemberian penyuluhan, demonstrasi, praktik pengunaan sumba serta bimbingan menyikat gigi pada anak ABSTRACTIntroduction: Elimination of plaque, as the main etiology of caries and periodontal disease, is the key to preventing dental and oral diseases. The use of sumba, which has previously been proven to be able to detect plaque, is a material that is easily accessible by various groups of people. This community service activity aims to improve tooth brushing skills by using sumba to visualisize the dental plaque.Methods: Community service activities were carried out on 5th grade students of SDN 33 / IV Penyengat Olak, Muaro Jambi Regency. The activity began with dental and oral health education, demonstration and practice of making disclosing solutions or plaque detectors from Sumba. Guidance on personal brushing and clean teeth competitions as positive reinforcementResults: 100% increase in knowledge in children who were given counseling and demonstrations on the use of Sumba to visualize the dental plaque. Significant differences in plaque scores (p = 0.000) were seen between before and after counseling, demonstrations, practice of using Sumba and guidance on brushing teeth.Conclusion: There was an increase in knowledge and an increase in the value of plaque scores after counseling, demonstrations, the practice of using Sumba and guidance on brushing teeth in children.

Background:Rates of periodontal disease and tooth loss are increased in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Periodontal disease may exacerbate RA inflammation and complicate RA care. Understanding factors that contribute to the increased burden of periodontal disease in RA is critical to improving oral health and possibly arthritis outcomes. People with RA may have unique needs and/or barriers to maintain oral health.Objectives:To determine from people with RA what are their experiences and perceptions about their oral health, their most important questions relating to oral health, and how they wish to receive oral health information.Methods:Semi-structured interviews were conducted with RA patients. Recorded interview transcripts underwent iterative content analysis. Transcripts were initially reviewed to develop a coding guide. Latent content, or larger themes, were then applied to the transcripts. Constructs were considered saturated when no new themes were identified with subsequent interviews. We report identified themes with representative quotes.Results:Interviews with 11 RA (10[91%] female; all on RA medication) averaged 19 minutes (range 8-31 minutes) and were mostly conducted face-to-face. Many believed RA medication contributed to dry mouth. Most participants had not previously considered other links between oral health and RA. Themes identified included the need for complicated oral health routines, barriers of cost and access to dental care, and shame relating to oral health (Table 1). Participants preferred to receive oral health education from their rheumatologists or dentists over printed or online resources.Conclusion:RA patients have unique needs relating to oral health and report poor oral quality of life. Strategies to optimize oral health in RA may include educational tools for optimizing oral self-care appropriate for RA, and improved access to oral care professionals who are aware of the needs of arthritis patients.Disclosure of Interests:Jennifer Protudjer: None declared, Corrie Billedeau: None declared, Chrysi Stavropoulou: None declared, Anastasia Cholakis: None declared, Robert Schroth: None declared, Carol Hitchon Grant/research support from: UCB Canada; Pfizer Canada
