“SCHOOL HEALTH PROGRAM” MEMBAWA KEBIASAAN BARU DALAM MENGGOSOK GIGI PADA SISWA SD YAPITA

Dental and oral health are fundamental components of overall health. Therefore, they must be properly maintained and introduced from an early age. Community service plays an important role in this effort through the implementation of a Training of Trainers (TOT) program focused on dental and oral health at SD Yapita. The method involved forming health cadres by providing education, training, and evaluation. The results showed improvements in students’ understanding and behavior regarding tooth brushing, with a total of 500 individuals educated within the school environment, including students, teachers, and parents. It is expected that this initiative will help reduce the risk of dental caries in the future.
