Abstract

Early dental caries prevention in this case self-care oral cultivation needs to be done primarily
in primary school-aged children. Indonesians are people who have not considered oral health
since their early years. Dental and oral health education programs with aspects that only
emphasize the realm of knowledge is not significant enough to change the paradigm in society
and reduce the number of caries. Elementary dental school (EDS) using appreciative inquiry
approach develops positive change concept which is a new discourse in the world of health
promotion.With the appreciative inquiry approach, the positive core that will be used as a
medium of transformation builds awareness and forms a healthy paradigm in children. The
program seeks to raise awareness of maintaining oral hygiene through the stages of providing
dance knowledge through animation and games by integrating school and home environments
through the participation of teachers and parents.The results of the implementation of EDS
program showed significant changes of knowledge in children especially seen from the
increase of post test value compared to the pre test value which experienced an increase of
35.3%.
