Kesehatan gigi dan mulut merupakan aspek penting dalam mendukung tumbuh kembang anak, khususnya pada usia sekolah dasar. Namun, masih banyak anak-anak yang kurang memahami pentingnya menjaga kebersihan dan kesehatan gigi, yang berdampak pada tingginya angka karies gigi dan penyakit gusi di kalangan anak usia dini. Kegiatan edukasi ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan, kesadaran, dan keterampilan siswa dalam menjaga kesehatan gigi dan mulut melalui pendekatan edukatif yang menyenangkan dan interaktif. Sasaran kegiatan adalah siswa kelas I hingga kelas VI di SDN 2 Lamcot, Kabupaten Aceh Besar.
Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini mencakup ceramah interaktif, pemutaran video edukatif, demonstrasi teknik menyikat gigi yang benar menggunakan alat peraga, serta praktik langsung oleh siswa yang didampingi oleh tenaga kesehatan. Selain itu, dilakukan pula pre-test dan post-test guna mengukur peningkatan pemahaman siswa sebelum dan sesudah edukasi diberikan. Materi yang disampaikan mencakup pentingnya menyikat gigi dua kali sehari, mengenal jenis makanan yang dapat merusak gigi, serta mengenali tanda-tanda awal gangguan kesehatan gigi dan mulut.
Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman siswa terhadap pentingnya menjaga kesehatan gigi dan mulut, yang ditunjukkan oleh perbandingan hasil pre-test dan post-test. Siswa juga menunjukkan antusiasme tinggi selama kegiatan berlangsung dan mampu mempraktikkan teknik menyikat gigi yang benar. Kegiatan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi langkah awal dalam pembentukan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehat di lingkungan sekolah serta menumbuhkan kebiasaan menjaga kesehatan gigi sejak usia dini.
