Abstract

Abstract: Basic Health Research of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia showed that 93% of Indonesian children experience dental caries. Dental health education (DHE) is the provision of information in the form of a comprehensive understanding of dental and oral health and the determinants that affect individuals and communities. Giving DHE to children must be done in an appropriate and effective way. This study was aimed to to determine the effectiveness of DHE using audio-visual media to elementary school students. This was a literature review study using the PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Clinical Key databases. Then the literatures were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and a critical appraisal was carried out to obtain relevant and worthy literatures. After going through the study selection, nine literatures were accepted. All literatures showed an increase in students' knowledge about dental and oral health after the DHE using audio-visual media. In conclusion, elementary school students' knowledge about dental and oral health increased significantly after DHE using audio-visual media.

Keywords: dental health education (DHE); audio visual media; elementary school’s students
