Abstract

Abstract: The government of Indonesia has issued technical guidelines for dental and oral health services at first-level health facilities using teledentistry. Knowledge regarding teledentistry among health care workers in first-level health facilities, especially in community health centers has been considered essential. This study aimed to determine the effect of education regarding teledentistry on increasing the knowledge of Cipanas Community Health Center, Garut Regency. This quasi-experimental study involved 44 health care workers of the Health Center. The questionnaire used consists of 15 items which have been tested for validity and reliability. Pre-test was conducted before receiving material regarding the teledentistry in the form of power point text (PPT), meanwhile, post-test was conducted immediately after material delivery was completed. Paired Sample T-test was carried out to see the difference between pre-test and post-test scores. ANOVA test was carried out to evaluate the difference between pre-test and post-test scores based on respondent characteristics. There was a significant difference between pre-test mean score of 7.5 and post-test mean score of 12.3 (p=0.000). There was a significant difference between pre-test mean score based on educational level (p=0.028) and occupation (p=0.018). There was a significant difference between post-test mean score based on educational level (p=0.009). In conclusion, there is an increase in the knowledge of  healthcare workers of Cipanas Community Health Center after receiving educational material regarding teledentistry.
