Abstract

Living a healthy life as a senior is the desire of everyone. However, keeping an elderly healthy is not easy. There are many challenges to face, because the elderly are susceptible to a variety of diseases. As you age, your body undergoes many changes or aging processes, and the changes you feel cover the entire limb. Vascular problems such as hypertension and other heart problems are common. Not only that, the elderly are also at risk of suffering from bone diseases such as osteoporosis, which can be dangerous because it can result in bone fractures and inhibit the activity of the elders because they have to lie more. Osteoporosis is often associated with periodontitis, as both are diseases of the bone caused by inflammation and old age. Both osteoporosis and periodontitis have similar risk factors such as smoking, poor nutritional status, age and immune deficiency. Osteoporosis can be prevented by eating foods rich in calcium, avoiding smoking and alcoholic beverages, having regular and regular physical activity, and exposure to sufficient sunlight. Preventing osteoporosis can reduce the risk of periodontitis in the elderly. This community service (PkM) is held for the elderly living in Grand Depok City Depok Residential, West Java. It is hoped that these activities will raise awareness of the elderly in particular, and the general public of the importance of health. It is expected that osteoporosis gymnastics for the elderly can be performed on a regular basis at Posbindu Anggrek 3.

Abstract

Oral health contributes to individual's physical, mental, and social well-being and significantly impacts their quality of life. Preventing oral diseases and promoting oral health contribute to overall well-being, enhancing their quality of life. Community-level or population-based prevention is the most cost-effective approach with the greatest impact on communities or populations, whether in schools or neighborhoods. Oral health education aims to enhance overall knowledge, potentially leading to the adoption of beneficial oral health behaviors. The provision of oral health education is expected to elevate public knowledge and awareness, enabling individuals to maintain or enhance their oral health and thus improve their quality of life. Offline activities involving oral health education were conducted through presentations on May 7th, 2023, at Giova’s Garden, Bogor. Various topics, including dental radiographic examination, primary management of dental trauma, dental prosthesis rehabilitation, oral health in children, and tips for maintaining oral health while driving, were presented to enhance participants' knowledge about oral health. The community engagement activity proceeded smoothly. Similar activities are anticipated to be carried out again with pre-test and post-test assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of the education provided.
