Abstract

The frequency of consuming cariogenic foods can affect the incidence of dental caries. This study aims to determine the effect of consuming cariogenic foods on the incidence of dental caries in grade V children of SDN 53 Kuranji Padang with a cross sectional design. With a population of 45 fifth grade students of SDN 53 Kuranji Padang City, the sample was obtained by total sampling. Data were analysed using univariate analysis in the form of tables and percentages, and bivariate analysis using chi-square. The results of the study concluded the influence of cariogenic food consumption on the incidence of dental caries. It is recommended for schools to cooperate with dental health workers to conduct counseling on oral health continuously so as to increase students' awareness of good behaviour in maintaining oral health.
