This condition is very saddening because preschool-children need their parents to take care of their health, particularly dental health. In this case, parents’ knowledge is very much needed in providing more guidance and care in order that the children do not have dental caries. To was aimed at identifying the correlation between parents’ knowledge of dental health with the prevalence of dental caries among preschool children at Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Nursery School, Wedomartani, Ngemplak, Sleman, Yogyakarta. This research was a correlation analysis with a cross-sectional design. The subjects were parents, particularly mothers, whose children studied at Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Nursery School. It was a simple random sampling technique with 64 respondents. The data collection instrument consisted of a questionnaire and an observation sheet. The data were analyzed with the Spearman Rank statistics. This research found that the knowledge of dental health of 50.0% of the parents was categorized as good, the dental caries prevalence of the children were 71,9%. The research hypothesis was accepted with a p-value of 0.023 and the correlation coefficient was 0.285. There was a significant correlation between the parents’ knowledge of dental health with the prevalence of dental caries among preschool children at Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Nursery School, Wedomartani, Ngemplak, Sleman, Yogyakarta.

The incidence of dental caries in children is very vulnerable because children have not been able to maintain dental and oral hygiene, one effort that can be done is to provide education in the form of how to brush teeth properly and correctly. The next step is to help the teeth to be more resistant to acid due to the acidogenic metabolism of plaque and food scraps, one of which can be done is smearing the teeth with a fluoride solution. This fluorine solution works or binds the arrangement of interpreting to become denser so that the acid from the results of metabolism by germs so that there is no demineralization of tooth enamel. This study aims to describe the effect of the application of SnF or NaF fluorine to Saliva pH of 9-14-year-old elementary school children in Pontianak City in 2018. The research method uses Explanatory Research, surveys with direct examination to apply SnF or NaF fluorine and salivary pH measurements with a paper indicator to see the pH of saliva. The type of research used is descriptive analytics, to see the average Saliva pH after fluorine application, see the effect of fluorine application, see the magnitude of the influence of R2 and see the level of verification. The test used in Regression. The results of the research conducted on 186 samples obtained the average data, namely female respondents as much as 52.2%, age of 11 years old elementary school children as much as 33.3%, Saliva 7 pH as much as 58.6%, fluorine application (R) effect amounted to .45, the amount of influence (R2) of fluorine application is 45% and Siq value. 0,000 <0,005. The conclusion is that the effect of the application of SnF or NaF fluorine to Saliva pH in elementary school age children aged 9-14 years with an average pH 7 (58.6%) with a magnitude of fluorine influence of 45%, the level of qualification is very strong because of the value siq. 0,000 <0,005.

Ages 5 to 12 years are the age group that is susceptible to caries. The high caries prevalence rate of 42.6% reflects the low level of knowledge about dental health. The knowledge about dental and oral health will indirectly influence the health of the teeth and mouth so that it can prevent dental caries. The knowledge is used as a self-education to achieve the optimal dental and oral health. To find out the relationship between the dental caries knowledge level with the DMF-T Index. This research used the analytic survey with the cross-sectional data collection. This research was conducted in December 2018 to January 2019. The population in this research was the 5th grade students of the North Walitelon State Elementary School. The samples of this research were the 39 5th-grade students with the total sampling. The research instruments were questionnaire and the DMF-T Index examination format. The data were analyzed using the Kendall’s tau-b correlation test. The level of knowledge with the good criteria had a low DMF-T Index of 92.3%, the moderate was as much as 2.6%, and the fair knowledge level had a low DMF-T Index of 5.1%. The Kendall’s tau-b test results showed a relationship between the dental caries knowledge level and the DMF-T Index, and the obtained p value = 0,000 (p < 0.05). The high knowledge level of dental caries affected the results of the DMF-T index.

The use of tobacco products, tea, coffee, certain mouthwashes and pigments in the food causes the formation of stain. The research aimed to determine the effect of limestone powder to the cleaning of extrinsic tooth staining (stain). This study used a quasi-experimental design with the design of pre-test - Post-test Design (Campbell and Stanley, 1966, cit. Arikunto, 2006), the research done by using the first observation (pre-test) before the intervention. Furthermore, the post-test after the intervention to determine changes. Variables that influence of limestone powder. The variable affected is extrinsic tooth discoloration (stain). The results showed that smokers after intervention stain brush his teeth with limestone powder showed that the t value of 5.77 with a probability of 0.001. This probability is below 0.05 (significant p <0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected, which means there are differences between the mean scores before the intervention brushing teeth stain with limestone powder on one observation after intervention by brushing your teeth with limestone powder on observation 2 and third, the intervention After brushing teeth with limestone powder stain mean score decreased from 8.50 becomes 7.23 and 6.53. Conclusion limestone Powder effectively lower extrinsic tooth staining (stain) when done diligently and carefully.
