Abstract

Introduction: A microorganism that plays an important role in dental caries is Streptococcus mutans. Dental caries can be prevented by brushing your teeth. The addition of antibacterial to toothpaste can reduce the number of caries-causing bacteria. Some anti-bacterial ingredients commonly added to toothpaste include fluorine, triclosan, and sodium monophosphate.Purpose: In this study, researchers wanted to develop an alternative toothpaste with cinnamon extract as an antibacterial ingredient. This research was conducted to formulate toothpaste with various concentrations of cinnamon extract 5%, 7.5%, and 10% and to determine the optimal concentration that can inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutants bacteria.Method: The type of research conducted is experimental laboratories with a research design post-test only control group design. The toothpaste formulation is made with the active ingredient cinnamon extract with a concentration of 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. Cinnamon toothpaste was then tested on agar media which already contained Streptococcus mutans cultures. In addition, there is siwak herbal toothpaste as a positive control. Bacterial inhibition was analyzed statistically using the method one-way anova at the 95% confidence levelResults: research shows that cinnamon extract toothpaste with a concentration of 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and control+ has an average resistance of 11.5mm, 12mm, 12.5mm and 13mm. The results of data analysis by testanova show that p0.05. This shows that there are significant differences in the concentrations of the three cinnamon extracts. After obtaining the results One-Way Anova test significantly continued with the LSD test The results showed that there was no significant difference between the positive control and cinnamon toothpaste with a concentration of 10%, ρ=0.153. This shows that the inhibitory power of 10% cinnamon toothpaste is close to the positive control. This shows that the higher the concentration of cinnamon extract, the more antibacterial and bioactive content.

Abstract

The dental health maintenance behavior of the Indonesian people in brushing their children's teeth directly is still deficient. Brushing your teeth correctly and adequately is one factor in avoiding dental and oral diseases such as caries. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize that dental and oral health information in early childhood is needed. This study aimed to analyze the effect before and after counseling using simulation and peer teaching methods on tooth brushing behavior in SD Muhammadiyah Tanjungsari Pekalongan students. The type of research used is a quasi-experiment (quasi-experimental) with a pre-test and post-test group design. The population in this study amounted to 124 students. The sample consisted of 40 students, with 20 students being given the simulation method and 20 students being given the peer teaching method and taken by purposive sampling technique. The tests were carried out by univariate analysis and bivariate analysis, using the Mann-Whiteny test to determine differences in the effectiveness of the methods used. The statistical test results used the Mann-Withney test with results on knowledge (p=0.954), attitude (p=0.498), action (p=0.040), and index debris (p=0.001). Shows that there are differences in the effectiveness of counseling before and after using the simulation method compared to the peer teaching method; namely, knowledge is more effective using the simulation method with an average simulation of 20.60, attitudes are more effective using the peer teaching method with an average of 21.68, on the action it is more effective using the simulation method with an average of 24.30, and on the debris index it is more effective using the peer teaching method with an average of 26.55.

Abstract

Prevalensi karies anak saat ini masih cukup tinggi. Hal ini menunjukkan adanya kendala dalam optimalisasi program UKGS Tahap II. Salah satu program yang dapat dilakukan untuk memberdayakan siswa dalam pelihara Kesehatan gigi dan mulutnya adalah melalui program Pelatihan Dokter Kecil. Pelatihan Dokter Kecil ternyata dapat meningkatkan Pengetahuan siswa berkategori baik dari 28%  menjadi 76%. Disamping itu, peningkatan pengetahuan ini ternyata dapat meningkatkan ketrampilan siswa dalam menggosok giginya. Hal ini tercermin dari nilai OHI-S atau indeks kebersihan mulutnya sebesar 0.6 dan sesuai dengan target nasional yaitu OHI-S ? 1.2. Peningkatan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan dokter kecil ini dapat diberdayakan untuk memotivasi teman sebaya dalam memelihara Kesehatan giginya di waktu mendatang.
