The incidence of toothache, including caries, in children is quite high in many countries, including Indonesia. WHO reports that the prevalence of caries in children under five in various countries reaches 60-90%. Children are an age group that is vulnerable to disease and is very prone to experiencing problems related to dental and oral hygiene. Generally, children aged 3-5 years like to eat sweet foods such as chocolate, candy and other foods that contain lots of sugar. Sugar that sticks to the teeth becomes food for bacteria in the mouth, such as Streptococcus mutans. These bacteria produce acids that damage tooth enamel and trigger caries. On average, the condition of children's dental and oral hygiene is still very poor due to the lack of ability to maintain good dental and oral hygiene, as evidenced by the survey results showing that 8 out of 10 students were classified as having poor oral hygiene. Bina Pertiwi Kindergarten (TK) located in Sumberjaya Village, Bengkulu City is a school that organizes learning activities while playing to shape children's character who is intelligent and has noble character.
Based on initial interviews with kindergarten teachers, it is known that students at Bina Pertiwi Kindergarten often experience toothache which really interferes with the children's learning and playing process and concentration.
