Abstract

Health education is an educational activity carried out by spreading messages, instilling confidence, so that people are not only aware, know and understand, but are also willing and able to carry out recommendations related to health. According to dentists, brushing your teeth is done at least twice a day, namely after breakfast and before going to bed at night. Brushing your teeth is also recommended using toothpaste which helps clean your teeth and smell better. The result of rarely brushing your teeth is the appearance of plaque on your teeth which is a result of the buildup of dirt on your teeth. Dental plaque can also cause cavities which, if left unchecked, can make your teeth ache. Counseling and implementing joint toothbrushing is necessary because brushing teeth is a daily activity that must be done to keep teeth healthy and clean.
