Jumlah populasi individu berkebutuhan khusus di Indonesia semakin meningkat seiring dengan waktu. Individu berkebutuhan khusus (IBK) dapat memiliki berbagai keterbatasan seperti keterbatasan dalam kemampuan intelektual dan fisik, gangguan kondisi jiwa, dan juga masalah medis yang kompleks sehingga membuat populasi ini semakin rentan mengalami gangguan kesehatan mulut dan membutuhkan akses serta pelayanan perawatan kesehatan gigi dan mulut. Dokter gigi Indonesia yang memiliki spesialisasi dan kemampuan di bidang perawatan gigi dan mulut IBK masih langka sehingga besar kemungkinan bahwa perawatan gigi dan mulut pasien IBK dilakukan oleh dokter gigi umum atau spesialis. Namun sampai saat ini, tidak ditemukan data mengenai pelayanan kedokteran gigi bagi IBK oleh dokter gigi Indonesia dan bagaimana pengetahuan dan persepsi dokter gigi Indonesia dalam melakukan special needs dentistry/special care dentistry (SND/SCD). Studi ini merupakan penelitian dengan desain potong lintang dan deskriptif analitik menggunakan kuesioner yang telah diadaptasi lintas budaya ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Hasil uji reliabilitas dan validitas kuesioner ini adalah baik (acceptable). Sebanyak 250 responden yang merupakan dokter gigi dan dokter gigi spesialis berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini. Hanya 26,4% responden yang memiliki persepsi yang baik mengenai SND/SCD dan mayoritas (70%) responden tidak melakukan SND/SCD. Meskipun demikian, persepsi responden terhadap pasien SND/SCD pada penelitian ini dominan positif kecuali pada kelompok pasien penyakit menular. Persepsi responden juga dominan nyaman, kecuali pada kelompok pasien dengan penyakit menular dan masalah psikologis atau perilaku. Tidak terdapat hubungan antara persepsi SND/SCD dengan karakteristik demografi, namun terdapat hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik antara komponen SND/SCD dalam pendidikan dokter gigi dengan persepsi dan kemampuan dalam SND/SCD. Selain itu, terdapat perbedaan perasaan dan kenyamanan terhadap perawatan pasien SND/SCD antara dokter gigi umum dan dokter gigi spesialis. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa persepsi mengenai SND/SCD pada responden dokter gigi DKI Jakarta belum baik namun responden cenderung memiliki persepsi yang positif dan nyaman kepada pasien SND/SCD.

Population of special needs individuals in Indonesia is steadily increasing. Special needs individuals may have various disabilities such as physical and intelectual disabilities, mental health and complex medical problems which made this population more prone to oral health problems and requires access to oral health care services. Indonesian dentists who have specialization and ability in special needs dentistry/special care dentistry (SND/SCD) are rare thus there is a high chance that general dentists or other specialist dentists perform the oral health care to special needs individuals. Currently, data on SND/SCD in Indonesia and Indonesian dentists’ knowledge and perception towards SND/SCD are lacking. This study was a cross-sectional and analytical descriptive study using a questionnaire which has been cross-adapted into Indonesian language. Reliability and validity tests were performed and yielded accetable scores. A total of 250 respondents which consisted of dentists and specialist dentists participated in this study. This study found that only 26.4% respondents had good perception in SND/SCD and 70% of respondents did not practice SND/SCD. Nevertheless, respondents’ perception towards groups of special needs patients were mostly positive except on the group of patients with infectious disease and respondents were mostly comfortable in treating special needs patients except in group of patients with infectious disease and psychological or behavioral problems. There was no correlation between SND/SCD perception and demographical characteristics. However, there were statistically significant correlations between SND/SCD component in undergraduate dental training with the perception and ability in SND/SCD. Moreover, there were significant correlations between dentists and specialist dentists towards treatment in special needs patients. In conclusion, the respondents in this study had poor perception in SND/SCD although there were tendecies of positive and comfortable perception towards special needs patients.

"Special needs patients (SNP) have diffculty accessing dental services, partly due to reluctance of dentists to treat them. Objective: We assess didactic and clinical training experiences of fnal-year dental students and new graduates in managing SNP. Methods: An online questionnaire was sent to 123 fnal year dental students and new graduates, assessing their experiences and readiness in handling SNP. Results: Majority of the respondents were not confdent in attending to SNP. Majority gained knowledge in handling SNP via lectures while more than half had managed patients with complex medical history. Majority mentioned a lack of clinical training to treat SNP as their dental training experience had only been in a dental school clinical setting. Most of the respondents hope their curriculum would include more education to improve clinical skills in managing SNP. Conclusion: Respondents demonstrated minimum training and lack of confdence and skills that might contribute to a lack of preparedness to manage the oral health care needs of SNP. Clinical exposure in managing SNP at the undergraduate level is still inadequate and it needs to be emphasized in the curriculum."

The ratio of the need for doctors in Indonesia is still below the WHO standard. In accordance with the mandate of the law, the Ministry of Health is committed to meeting the needs of specialist doctors in all regions of Indonesia through a policy of assistance with the cost of education for specialist doctors or specialist dentists. This study aims to analyze the implementation of policies that have been implemented, namely the policy of educational assistance for specialist doctors-dental specialists. This research is a qualitative research by using a Rapid Assessment Procedure research design. This study combines the policy implementation model of Edward III and Van Meter Van Horn by using 6 variables, namely policy size and objectives, communication, resources, dispositions, characteristics of implementing organizations, as well as the political, social and economic environment. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews, document review and observation. The research informants consisted of the heads and members of the PPDS-PPDGS working team members, IT managers at the Riau, East Nusa Tenggara, Maluku and South Sulawesi Provinces Health Offices. The research was conducted from May-June 2023. The research results show that the policy implementation has been going well, but there are still a number of things that still need to be improved. The size and objective variables of the PDS-DGS cost assistance policy are clear and can be measured and are contained in the performance indicators for the Directorate of Health Workforce Provision activities contained in the Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Health. Inter-organizational policy communication runs well between the Directorate for the provision of health workers, the Provincial Health Office and other stakeholders through regular outreach and coordination. The resources in implementing the PDS-DGS financial assistance policy, both human resources, budget, and authority, have been well optimized by the Directorate for Provision of Health Personnel, but for facility resources, namely the information system, development is still needed so that it can be used optimally. The characteristics of implementing organizations are supported by the availability of complete policy implementation SOPs and a clear division of authority between organizations. In the disposition variable, the commitment of the leadership and the work team in implementing the PDS-DGS financial assistance policy by carrying out tasks according to their respective roles and responsibilities. The economic, social and political environment variables show the amount of support from relevant stakeholders in the implementation of the PDS-DGS financial assistance policy."

Background: Demographic population changes towards the ageing population can impact dentists to provide oral health care. The dentist will treat more older people with diverse and complex oral health needs and problems requiring special treatment because the treatment aims to improve and maintain healthy and functional dental and oral health and aims at the quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, dentists and their teams need to be equipped with special knowledge and skills and also have a positive attitude towards the elderly in developing dentists’ professional behavior and practice. Dentists' barriers also need to be a concern because they can prevent dentists from providing care for the elderly. Methods: A cross-sectional study based on an online questionnaire was conducted in April-June 2022. The questionnaire consists of six parts which were the characteristics of dentists, knowledge (27 questions), attitudes (17 questions), practice (7 questions), willingness (1 question), and barriers (1 open question). Descriptive statistics were calculated, bivariate analysis was performed using SPSS, and thematic analysis was carried out using Atlas.ti software on respondents' answers obtained through open-ended questions. Respondents in this study were 461 general dentists. Results: 98,4% stated that they were willing and very willing to provide oral health care to the elderly. There is a significant correlation between dentists' knowledge, attitude, and practice in terms of oral health care in the elderly. A dentist's willingness was significantly correlated with the dentist’s attitude and practice. The three main barriers to providing dental and oral care to the elderly are communication with the patient, the complexity of the disease, and the patient's mobility. Conclusion: Dentists have good knowledge, attitudes, practices, and willingness to provide oral health care for the elderly. There is a relationship between dentists' knowledge, attitude, and practice in terms of oral health care for the elderly. Most dentists are willing to provide oral health care to the elderly and participate in geriatric dentistry training."
