ABSTRACT
Introduction: Oral hygiene status is a condition of a person’s oral cavity. Oral hygiene status can be
assessed using the Oral Hygiene Index Simpliied (OHI-S) by Greene & Vermillion. The education given
regarding oral health is one of health promotion with the purpose to increase the ability of children in
terms of maintaining and improving their oral hygiene. The purpose of this study was to determine the
diference of the orphans in Ar-Rohman Foster Home Bandung oral health status before and after three
times of oral health education. Methods: The type of this research was a pre-experimental study with
one group of pretest-posttest design with total sampling technique. Subjects of this research were orphans aged 13-15 years old. The respondents got the clinical examination of OHI-S before and after the
oral health education was given for three times. The data obtained then tested using normality test,
if the data were normally distributed, then analysed with a paired t-test, and if the data was not normally distributed, then will be analysed with a Wilcoxon test. Results: The results showed a signiicant
decrease of plaque index after oral health education was given to the orphans. The examination of the
calculus index (CI-S) did not show any change before and after oral health education. OHI-S of children,
however, showed a signiicant decrease. Conclusion: There was a signiicant increase in the orphans in
Ar-Rohman Foster Home Bandung oral health status after given three times of oral health education.

to use a toothbrush and dental loss was done. The
education was done in several times at the 7th, 14th,
and 21st day by presenting the same topics. At the

to maintain good oral health to avoid having an
expensive dental treatment.
Based on many research, the pattern of
foster home living is diferent from family living as
it provides physical security, food, and shelter but

low caretaker to child ratio. These children form
a population at risk with reference to abnormal
psychosocial development.5 Research showed that
the oral health status of the foster home children
hasn’t been able to be classiied as good.2 The
knowledge of the children and the caretaker at this
foster home on how to maintain oral health is still
lacking. Furthermore, dental health education is
still rather neglected. Generally, orphans acquire
dental health education needs to be delivered
to the children and the caretakers in order to
achieve a better dental and oral health status.6
The purpose of this study was to determine the
diference of the orphans in Ar-Rohman Foster
Home Bandung oral health status before and after
three times of oral health education.
RESULTS
Based on Table 1 below showed that before dental
health education, most of the orphans have a
moderate category of plaque index, which is 26
children (83,9%). Most of orphans calculus index
at the moderate category, which is 16 children
(51,6%), and most of orphans OHI-S is in the
moderate category, which is 22 children (71%).
At the last clinical examination show, the
most of orphans calculus index change into good
category, which is 25 children (80,6%). After dental
health education, most of orphans OHI-S score is
in a good category, which is 23 children (74,2%) as
presented in Table 1 below.
The inal result of the 28th day, after three
times dental health education and demonstration,
showed signiicant decreasing OHI-S score from
1,7742 to 1,0742, and also decrease on the plaque
index score from 1,1129 to 0,4129. However,

with a score of 0,6606. The Wilcoxon analysis
