Introduction -The order of tooth eruption is essential in determining the diagnosis and treatment for dentistry. One of the elements affecting tooth eruption is gender. In this regard, the pubertal growth spurt in boys is half to two years later than in girls. Aims -This study aims to examine the permanent teeth eruption status in children with normal nutritional status based on gender. Methods -This cross-sectional study involved 164 boys and girls as subjects, including 82 aged 6-7 years and 82 aged 10-11 years, and then the jaws were cast on them. The permanent teeth eruption status was determined by scoring each tooth (0 = not yet erupted, 1 = partially erupted, and 2 = fully erupted). Children aged 6-7 years old had their teeth 16, 26, 36, 46, 31, and 41 scored, while children aged 10-11 years old had their teeth 14,15,24,25, 34, 35, 44, 45 scored. Mann-Whitney test was then employed to evaluate the difference in eruption status between boys and girls.
Menurut WHO, lebih dari 50 juta jam sekolah per tahun hilang sebagai akibat yang ditimbulkan oleh sakit gigi pada anak. Surkesnas melaporkan 62,4% penduduk merasa terganggu pekerjaan/sekolah karena sakit gigi (rata-rata per tahun 3,86%). Anggraini melaporkan anak free karies pada salah satu SD favorit di Yogyakarta adalah 10%. Konsep program ini bertujuan untuk memberi materi kesehatan gigi pada guru TK dan PAUD serta mengajak mereka peduli akan kesehatan gigi murid-muridnya. Metode yang digunakan adalah pemberian materi dengan penyuluhan dan setelahnya mengisi kuesioner. Kuesioner meliputi pengertian kesehatan gigi, asal mereka mendapatkan informasi kesehatan gigi, pengetahuan menggosok gigi, konsep gosok gigi, dan konsep pertolongan pertama saat murid sakit gigi. Implikasi program ini adalah masyarakat sekolah TK/PAUD diajak berpikir, bersikap, dan bertindak untuk membangun dan mengembangkan diri melalui kepedulian terhadap kesehatan gigi Data kuesioner menunjukkan 100% guru TK/PAUD setuju bahwa pengetahuan kesehatan gigi adalah hal penting. Menggosok gigi penting untuk anak TK/PAUD (97,7%). Menggosok gigi sebaiknya dilakukan tiga kali sehari (84,10%). Guru tahu cara menggosok gigi yang baik dan benar (84,10%). Besaran jumlah pasta gigi yang diletakkan pada sikat gigi anak adalah sebesar biji kacang polong (54,50%). Waktu menyikat gigi anak 1-2 menit (65,9%). Sebanyak 50,00% menyatakan anak perlu minum obat jika sakit gigi. Jika anak bengkak giginya, anak segera minum obat, kumur garam, dan periksa ke dokter gigi (68,20%). Kesimpulannya adalah pengetahuan tentang kesehatan gigi perlu ditingkatkan pada kalangan pendidik guru TK dan PAUD (belum 100% jawaban benar dari data kuesioner) dan perlu ada kesadaran pentingnya kepedulian sekolah dalam masalah kesehatan gigi dan mulut (97,60% - 100% responden setuju terkait pelatihan virtual dan penambahan pengetahuan tentang kesehatan gigi anak).
