This was an analytical and observational study with a cross sectional design. Samples were medical and non- medical students obtained by using the consecutive sampling technique. Data were collected at Muslim Islamic University using online questionnaire through the Google form platform regarding knowledge, actions to maintain oral health, and subjective complaints of oral health problems. Data were analyzed by using the chi-square test. The results showed that the majority of students had a high level of knowledge about dental and oral health, meanwhile, their action to maintain oral health was in moderate level. The levels of knowledge and action to maintain oral health of medical students were better than of the non-medical students. Dental and oral health problems most frequently complained were recurrent aphtous ulcers (RAU) and dental caries. The chi-square test showed a p-value of 0.023 between the action to maintain oral health and subjective complaints of oral health problems. In conclusion, there was a significant relationship between the action to maintain oral health and subjective complaints of oral health problems.
