Abstract

Tooth and mouth disease is a public disease suffered by 90% of Indonesian people. The prevalence of tooth caries in the twelve-year-old group of children increased from 69.74%(1978) to 76.92%(1995). Research on the 6-14-year-old elementary school children showed that the prevalence of caries is 60%-80%. Besides suffering from tooth caries, there were 70% of the children examined suffered from periodontal disease. This is mostly caused by plaque which is usually owing to the lack of the tooth and mouth cleanness. Tooth caries ranks the first, that is 69%, of all dental disease suffered by elementary school students.The mass national activity of brushing teeth through the program of UKGS, which should be able to increase the awarness of elementary school students to brush their teeth, did not indicate the significant improvement, that is from 47%(1994) to 53%(1997). At the end of Pelita VI(1998) there was a decrease to 52,40%. The aim of this research is : (1) to analyze the influence of group discussion and demonstrasion of brushing teeth to the improvement of the students' knowledge, attitude and practice, (2) to analyze the influence of the students' knowledge, attitude and practice to the change of the tooth and mouth cleanness level. The design in the research is the randomized control group pretest-posttest design.This was conducted by comparing two groups, experimental and control group. Each group consisted of 65 experimental samples and 63 control samples selected randomly. The research was carried out in Gempol District, Pasuruan Regency. The instruments used were attitude scale form, questionairs of knowledge, checklist of practicing brushing teeth, and the examination form of OHI-S. Then the data obtained were analyzed by sum rank assigned test Wilcoxon and Multiple Regression Based on the first analysis, it was that the level of knowledge, attitude and practice before and after intervention on experimental group was different, the obtained p=0,00(knowledge), p=0,00(attitude), p=0,00 (practice), and p= 0,00 (OHI-S). On the control group was not different, the obtained p= 0,078(knowledge), p=0,072(attitude), p=0,0131(practice), and p=0,064 (OHI-S) . There was significant difference on the knowledge, attitude and practice between the experimental and control group after method of group discussion and demonstration of brushing teeth. So that first, second and third hypotesis were accepted. By seeing the result based on the second analysis, the obtained p=.29 R= -0,0076 (knowledge), p=0,05 (3= -0,00251 (attitude), and p= 0,012 (3= -0,0031 (practice). Knowledge has an influence but not significant whereas attitude and practice have significant influence to the decrease of OHI-S value. So that fourth hypotesis was accepted.
