Abstract

Background:  Nutritional insufficiency and stunting during infant growth and development also causes a delay in the ossification centers and may lead to poor skeletal and dental forms resulted in malocclusion. Early interceptive orthodontics can eliminate or reduce the severity of a developing malocclusion, the complexity of orthodontic treatment, the overall treatment time, and the cost. Proper oral and dental health knowledge and a favorable attitude toward oral and dental health are critical in preventing numerous dental issues such as malocclusion. Purpose: the aim of this community empowerment is to enhance the knowledge of preventive orthodontic treatment for malocclusion and stunting in elementary school children. Methods:  The data was collected at Miftahul Ulum Melirang's Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, or elementary school, in Melirang Village, Bungah District, Gresik, East Java. For the community empowerment program assessment, participants were requested to fill out a Google form for the pre- and post-test to identify the enhancement of knowledge about or preventative orthodontic treatment for malocclusion and stunting in primary school children. Results: The majority of the community empowerment participants understood the presentation on oral and dental health empowerment. The post-test percentage was greater (91.5%) than the pre-test rate (53.75%). Conclusion:  The dental and oral health empowerment program about preventive orthodontics, malocclusion, and stunting was effectively completed, enhancing the knowledge level of elementary school children.

Abstract

Background: Dental caries is frequently observed in children. Increasing the awareness of oral health among school-age children is anticipated to decrease the occurrence of dental caries. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental caries among students in Medowo III elementary school using dmft/DMFT index. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out among the entire student at Medowo III elementary school. The dental caries of each student were assessed using the dmft and DMFT indices. The assessment of variable distribution was conducted using the Shapiro-Wilk test. The dmft/DMFT values were compared between different age groups and genders using either the Student's t-test or the Mann-Whitney test. The data was processed using a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: The study included a total of 43 students. The average caries index in primary dentitions was markedly greater than in permanent dentitions. According to WHO, the prevalence of dental caries was very high in the primary dentition of students aged 7-9 years. No notable disparities were detected between female and male students in relation to the caries index of both primary and permanent teeth. However, the average caries index of primary teeth was considerably higher in middle-childhood students compared to preadolescence students. Conclusion: The dental caries prevalence among students in Medowo III elementary school were still high. Therefore, oral health prevention program was needed in order to enhance the community's awareness toward dental caries.
