Background: Congenital heart disease is a condition of heart anomaly and or disfunction of heart since birth. The most common congenital heart disease is Tetralogy Of Fallot (TOF). The disorder has four features, a ventricular septal defect, aortic overriding, stenosis pulmonary, and hypertrophy right ventricular. Method: This review aimed to talk about oral manifestations and discuss options of several oral and dental management in children with TOF. Result: Oral and dental treatment of pediatric patient with cardiovascular disease is important to be carried out with the risk of bacterial endocarditis. Conclusion:Oral and dental management in a child with congenital heart disease is very important. Main point of dental management are dental health education, preventive dental treatment and control periodic after dental treatment.
Background: Caries is a disease of dental hard tissue which is characterized by demineralization and followed by damage to organic matter. The prevalence of dental caries in children in 2018 in Indonesia is still very high, especially at the age of 3-4 years, the prevalence of caries reaches 36.4%, while at the age of 5-9 years it is 54%. The behavior of parents, especially mothers, has an influence on children's oral health, because mothers are role models as well as children's closest figures since birth. There are still many parents who do not know that their behavior affects their child's behavior, and do not consider it important to take care of their child's teeth. Method: This study aims to analyze the relationship between parental behavior on the caries index in children, and also to determine the effect of caries on the quality of life of preschool children. The search for journal literature in this study used 3 databases, namely Google Scholar, Pubmed and NCBI according to keywords, then screened and selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.Result: The behavior of parents, especially mothers, will determine the health of children's teeth. In addition, children's behavior also plays a significant role in maintaining the health of their teeth, one of which is in terms of brushing teeth, diet. Conclusion: Parents who have poor behavior in maintaining dental health have a higher risk of developing dental caries than mothers who have a good attitude.
