AbstrakMencegah terjadinya karies gigi pada penderita gangguan penglihatan tidak mudah dan lazimnya diperlukan seorang pengasuh (care giver). Metode penelitian ini adalah kuasi eksperimen dengan pre and post test design yang dilaksanakan di Sekolah Luar Biasa Tipe A (SLB-A) Negeri Bandung yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pendidikan penyikatan gigi dengan menggunakan model rahang dibandingkan dengan metode pendampingan terhadap tingkat kebersihan gigi dan mulut siswa-siswi tunanetra di SLB-A Bandung. Subjek penelitian adalah 26 siswa-siswi kelompok model rahang yang diberi pembimbingan lisan dan pendidikan penyikatan gigi dengan menggunakan model rahang, melakukan praktik menyikat gigi secara mandiri, serta 26 siswa kelompok pendampingan yang diberi pembimbingan lisan dan dilakukan pendampingan saat menyikat gigi. Kedua kelompok diperiksa kebersihan giginya dengan skor Personal Hygiene Performance (PHP) sebelum dan sesudah pendidikan, dengan 3 kali pengulangan pendidikan. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji t-dependent yang menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan kebersihan mulut yang signifikan antara sebelum dan setelah dilakukan pendidikan, berturut-turut pada kelompok model rahang (p=0,00) dan kelompok pendampingan (p=0,00). Analisis data dengan uji t-independent menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan perubahan skor PHP sebelum dengan sesudah pendidikan antara kedua kelompok sampel (p>0,05). Simpulan, tidak terdapat perbedaan perubahan skor PHP antara pendidikan penyikatan gigi model rahang dan metode pendampingan. [MKB. 2014;46(3) Comparison of Toothbrushing Education Effect to Dental and Oral Hygiene Levels between Jaw Model Method and Mentoring Method on in Visually Impaired Students in SLB-A Bandung AbstractPreventing the occurrence of dental caries in patients with visual impairment is not easy and usually requires support from a caregiver. This study was a quasi experiment with pre-and post-test design which was implemented in SLB-A Bandung, which is a public school for visually impaired students. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of toothbrushing education by using a model of the jaw compared with the mentoring method to the level of dental and oral hygiene students with visual impairments. The subjects in this study consisted of 26 students who received oral coaching and teeth brushing education using a jaw model with independent tooth brushing and another 26 students who received oral coaching and mentoring during toothbrushing. Both groups were examined for their oral hygiene index using Personal Hygiene Performance (PHP) score before and after the training with 3 repetitions of education. Data analysis was performed using t-dependent test which indicated a significant difference between oral hygiene before and after training in the jaw model group (p=0.00) and advocacy groups (p=0.00), respectively. However, analysis of the data with t-independent test shows no difference in PHP score change before and after education between the two sample groups (p>0.05). Conclusion, there is no ...
Toothbrush contamination occurs immediately after use and increases when use is repeated. After the toothbrush is used, it should be washed and disinfected. Bay leaf (Eugenia polyantha Wight) can be an alternative herbal disinfectant because it contains tannin, flavonoids and essential oils that are antiseptic and antimicrobial. This study was an experimental laboratory to see the inhibitory content of bay leaf extract concentration of 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and 60% on the growth of toothbrush bacteria colonies. Samples are bacterial colonies originating from 8 toothbrushes that have been used by 8 students in the mass toothbrush activity in SDN Harapan in the City of Bandung, with inclusion criteria aged 9-12 years and having a DMF-T index> 3. Repeat treatment for each concentration was 4 times. The results showed that bay leaf extract at concentrations of 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and 60% could inhibit the growth of bacterial colonies, but when compared with the antibacterial effects produced by antibiotics Ciprofloxacin (5 µg), inhibitory content of bay leaf extract the five concentrations are relatively smaller. Colonies of contaminant bacteria that often appear on toothbrushes are Neisseria sp and Streptococcus sp, Klebsiella sp, Enterobacteriaceae sp (Coliform), and Staphylococcus aureus. Further research can be developed to find out other herbal ingredients that can be combined to increase disinfection, good dosage forms and the right contact time between disinfectant and toothbrushes.
Kesehatan gigi dan mulut adalah keadaan sehat dari jaringan keras dan jaringan lunak gigi serta unsur-unsur yang berhubungan dalam rongga mulut yang memungkinkan setiap individu makan, berbicara dan berinteraksi sosial tanpa gangguan fungsi, gangguan penampilan, dan ketidaknyamanan karena adanya penyakit, gangguan pada rahang dan kehilangan gigi sehingga mampu hidup produktif secara sosial dan ekonomi.

Introduction: Down syndrome is a genetic disorder experienced by individuals due to an excess of one chromosome in the body cells as the 21st chromosome. This trisomy 21 will result in changes in physical characteristics thus affecting the dental and oral health problems of the patient. This study was a quasi-experimental study aimed to determine the effect of using the dental and oral health book on the knowledge and skills of parents with Down Syndrome children in carrying out the children’s dental and oral health care. Methods: The study design was one group pre-post test with an intervention in the form of reading a book. The sample was 36 parents of Down Syndrome children who were members of the POTADS (Persatuan Orang Tua Anak dengan Down Syndrome/Association of Parents with Down Syndrome Children) in Bandung. The statistical test used was the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Result: The results showed that parents' knowledge of their Down Syndrome children’s dental and oral health care and conditions were increased after reading educational books (from (4.44 ± 1.362) and (7.47 ± 2,274) respectively, into (6.69 ± 0.856) and (9.00 ± 1,394) respectively; p < 0.05). The skills of parents on performing Down Syndrome children’s dental and oral health care were also increased, from (5.00 ± 2.014) into (8.03 ± 1.134); p < 0.05. Conclusion: The book of Down Syndrome children’s dental and oral health increased parental knowledge regarding the dental and oral health care and condition of Down Syndrome children. The book also improved the parental skills in carrying out the Down Syndrome children’s dental and oral health care.Keywords: Parental skills, book, parental knowledge, Down Syndrome, Trisomy 21.
