Abstract

Plaque control is essential for the maintenance of healthy teeth and mouth. The habit of maintaining healthy teeth and mouth is influenced by knowledge and brushing techniques. Proper hygiene is essential for achieving dental and oral hygiene. Therefore, the delivery of dental and oral health education to students is very important to do. This community service aims to increase knowledge about controlling plaque and brushing teeth properly and correctly for children of State Elementary School 51 Banda Aceh. This community service is carried out using a descriptive method, with the target being all 51 grade V students of State Elementary School 51 Banda Aceh.
