Introduction
Dental and oral health is part of body health because it will affect the health of the whole body [1].Dental and oral health cannot be separated from body health because dental health will affect body health.Dental and oral disease is a health problem that is quite concerning and needs attention [2].In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 60-90% of school-age children worldwide have caries [3].Based on Riskesdas or national basic health research data in 2018, the largest proportion of dental problems in Indonesia was teeth with cavities for 45.3%.Meanwhile the majority of oral health problems experienced by the Indonesian population was swollen gums or abscesses by 14%, as much as 57.6% of the Indonesian population had dental and oral problems during the last 12 months, but only 10.2% received treatment by dental medical personnel [4].Another problem is that there is still a lack of public desire to visit the dentist for routine treatment, people tend to come when they have toothache.The low desire of the community is influenced by the lack of knowledge about dental health.Therefore, people need the right knowledge about dental health in order to have the right attitude and behavior in maintaining their dental health [5] One of the efforts that can be made to improve people's dental and oral health behavior is through dental health cadres.Health cadres according to Permenkes or Regulation from the Ministry of Health No. 25 of 2014 are everyone who is selected by the community and trained to handle individual or community health problems and work in places related to the delivery of health services in a very close relationship with the places of health service delivery [6].
