Kombinasi antara menyikat gigi yang bertujuan membersihkan plak secara mekanis dengan penggunaan pasta gigi mengandung ion fluor yang memengaruhi proses demineralisasi dan remineralisasi dapat mencegah karies. Anak berusia di bawah 8 tahun masih membutuhkan bimbingan dari orang tua terutama ibu dalam proses menyikat gigi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas edukasi penggunaan pasta gigi yang mengandung fluoride terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan ibu tentang kesehatan mulut anak. Penelitian ini mengumpulkan subyek penelitian berjumlah 25 subyek dari 32 subyek awal, terdiri dari guru SMKN 1 Batanghari Jambi yang merupakan seorang ibu. Subyek dievaluasi secara daring dengan 8 butir closed ended question saat pre-test (20 Juni 2021) dan post-test (21 Juni 2021). Uji statistik menggunakan pre-test dan post-test dengan SPSS. Uji indeks gain score dilakukan untuk menentukan tingkat efektivitas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat peningkatan rata-rata pengetahuan responden antara sebelum (5,16±1,930) dan setelah (5,64 ± 1,800) pemberian edukasi penggunaan pasta gigi yang mengandung fluoride. Nilai efektivitas yaitu 0,2 (g<0,3). Edukasi kepada ibu memberikan pengaruh positif namun nilai efektivitasnya rendah.
Introduction: resin composites have solubility and water sorption properties. Resin composites can get discoloration due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The purpose of this research is to know the effect of colored drinks and carbonated colored drinks on nanohybrid resin composite discoloration. Material and Method: This research was true experimental research with post test only group design. The samples used were 32 pieces of resin composites nanohybrid in disc-shaped with 6mm in diameters and 2mm in thickness, lighted by LED for 20 seconds. Samples were divided into groups immersed in colored drinks and groups immersed in carbonated colored drinks. The discoloration measurement used spectrophotometer UV-Visible by assess absorbance value. Results: the results showed that the group immersed in colored drinks has average absorbance value as big as 0,109 and the group immersed in carbonated colored drinks has average absorbance value as big as 0,175. the results of independent sample test showed a significant difference with a p value 0,001. Conclusion: Carbonated colored drinks have a greater influence on the color change of nanohybrid resin composites than colored drinks because carbonated colored drinks have more acidic properties.
Dental caries is a common tooth problem found among children. Mother's knowledge is a factor that influences children's dental caries prevention. Various media and methods can increase knowledge, such as pocket book and lecture methods that contain material about prevention of children’s dental caries. The objective of the study is to determine the effect of using pocket book and lecture methods on mother’s knowledge about children’s dental caries in Andalas District, Padang. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest design. The sample was divided into two groups with different treatment, 22 samples were given health education using pocket book and 22 samples were given health education with the lecture method. Data analysis included Wilcoxon test and Mann-Whitney test. The result of the study is there is a significant difference knowledge between before and after health education to samples used pocket book (p-value=0,01) and lecture method (p-value=0,01). There is no significant difference for both groups (p > 0.915). The conclution of the study is health education using pocket book and lecture methods can increase mother’s knowledge about children’s dental caries prevention.

Dental caries is a disease of hard tissue of the tooth due to bacterial activities that cause loss mineral structure of the tooth. Dental caries that occur in deciduous teeth on children under 71 months is called Early Childhood Caries (ECC). Dental caries is still one of the most common dental and oral health problem experienced by children in the world. Some surveys in Cambodia and Indonesia show that a high prevalence and severity of ECC which was 90% in children aged 3-5 years. Oral hygiene habits were identified as one of the risk factors of caries. Some studies suggest that there is a strong relationship between the behavior of maintaining oral hygiene and the prevalence of dental caries. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between oral hygiene habits and early childhood caries on toddler in Padang. This study used cross sectional design. The samples of this study was 107 childrens aged 3-5 years in Padang. The location was selected through stratified random sampling technique and samples was selected through consecutive sampling techniques. Data was collected in Gunung Pangilun village and Piai Tanah Sirah village. Data was collected using a questionaires and intraoral examination. Data was analyzed by Chi-Square with p<0,05. The result of this study that there was a significant relationship between oral hygiene habits and ECC on toddler in Padang (p=0,008). The conclusion of this study was that oral hygiene habits is associated with early childhood caries on toddler in Padang.
