Abstract

Dental and oral health in Indonesia is still a health problem that requires attention. To address dental and oral health problems in Indonesia, particularly in school-age and adult groups, it is necessary to carry out promotive-preventive activities by inviting local universities and business entities that focus on dental and oral health. The most common dental and oral diseases are caries and periodontal disease. One of the strategies of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in reducing the number of dental caries sufferers is by declaring the "Carry Free Indonesia 2030" program. The lack of knowledge and awareness of the Indonesian population regarding dental hygiene and the difficulty of reaching information due to the geographical conditions in several regions in Indonesia which make it impossible to hamper the distribution of education. The Training of Trainer Program targets teachers and parents for 21 days of morning and evening toothbrushes, teaching children and adults about the benefits of good oral hygiene and showing them how to brush their teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. This program aims to provide comprehensive, applicable and sustainable education and knowledge about dental and oral health to school-age children in Indonesia.

Abstract

School health program is a program of preventive promotional activities in the field of dentistry using the method “trainer of trainer” or abbreviated as ToT. The program is organized by the Indonesian Association of Dentists (PDGI) together with dental faculties across Indonesia as trainers and multinational company as facilitator. The goal of this program is to create a generation of a nation that will be free of tooth cavities by 2030. Teachers and parents of students with special needs are the target audience for this training, enabling them to carry out morning and night toothbrushing activities for good dental and oral health. ToT's activities include two things: giving advice to teachers and students' parents and brushing their teeth in the morning and evening for 21 days. The problem is that children with special needs do not have the same abilities as other children in terms of receiving information, responding to teaching, and applying what has been taught. Low levels of independence and varying levels of learning difficulties are challenges for trainees. Special methods in teaching morning and night toothbrush activities should be applied well to both teachers and parents of students with special needs, such as how to brush their teeth, the habits of brushing the teeth properly, the use of special brushes, and tips and tricks that can be implemented by the teacher and parents so that children with special requirements can run the program.
