ABSTRACT
Toothbrushing is an action taken to clean teeth and the oral cavity from food residues that
adhere to teeth and the oral cavity using a toothbrush and toothpaste. The number of oral health
cases in the Andalas community health center's working area is 4,323 cases. The data on tooth
decay in elementary schools in the Working Area of the Andalas Community Health Center
show the highest data at SDN 22 Andalas in Padang City, which is 74.56%. The research's aim
is to determine whether there is the effectiveness of education using animation video media
and snake and ladder simulation in improving toothbrushing knowledge among elementary
school students at SDN 22 Andalas in Padang City in 2023.
This research is quantitative in nature with a quasi-experimental design. The sampling
technique used in this research is Purposive Sampling. A total of 30 respondents were selected,
with 15 respondents exposed to animation video media and 15 respondents exposed to snake
and ladder simulation, and knowledge was measured using a questionnaire. The data analysis
method used was the Mann-Whitney Test.
The research results using the Mann-Whitney Test showed a p-value of 0.079 > 0.05 (accepting
Ho), which means there is no difference in the effectiveness of students' knowledge about
toothbrushing between the provision of animation video media and snake and ladder
simulation.
In conclusion, education using animation video and snake and ladder simulation is equally
effective in improving toothbrushing knowledge among elementary school students at SDN 22
Andalas in Padang City. It is expected that students can apply and enhance awareness of
toothbrushing both at school and in their living environment.
