Perception of oral hygiene has a major impact on life expectancy worldwide, but in middle-income countries it is a problem, where oral health problems in Indonesia affect as much as 57.6% of the population. A semi-experimental study was conducted on October 30, 2024 on students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School, Kediri City, East Java, Indonesia. The study method was carried out offline (face-to-face) using a mixture of presentation media (power point) and booklets. The socialization participants were divided into two parts: pre-socialization (pre-test) and post-socialization (post-test). The socialization participants were given questions to assess their knowledge and perceptions of oral health before and after the socialization. Participants' knowledge was classified as sufficient, moderate, and low in understanding oral hygiene before and after the socialization. This counseling was carried out as part of a collaboration between the Faculty of Dentistry (FKG) of the Bhakti Wiyata Institute of Health Sciences (IIK) and the Faculty of Dentistry (FKG) of the University of Sains Malaysia (USIM). This counseling aims to improve dental health knowledge of students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School so that it is hoped that it can reduce the DMF-t rate in students at Al-Marusiyah Elementary School.

Dewi Riskha Nurmalasari — 2025-06-11

Medicinal plants in Indonesia consist of various species that have similar morphological structures that are difficult to distinguish from one another. In terms of ensuring the safety of using a medicinal plant, quality assurance and quality control are needed. Good quality medicinal plants can be obtained by standardizing medicinal plant raw materials, standardizing production processes, traditional medicinal products, distribution methods, and effective dosages. Gombengsari is part of Banyuwangi Regency. The main commodities in the area are coffee and other plantation commodities such as coconut, cloves, and medicinal plants. The purpose of the community service program is to provide education and training to our Community Service Partners, namely POKMAS Sumberwaru Maju, on how to ensure the quality of medicinal plant raw materials, as well as an effort to develop the Spice Village Program (Toga Village) in Gombengsari. The stages of the activity include: pretest, education or counseling, training in making herbal drinks, posttests, and assisting in the production of herbal products. The results of this counseling and training activity, as well as the mentoring that we have done, have a positive and beneficial impact on the group. This can be seen from the group actively practicing the knowledge that we have taught to the group team. This community service activity is planned to continue with a different theme, but still on interrelated material in Gombengsari Village.
