Abstract

Tingginya prevalensi karies gigi pada anak usia dini di Indonesia, disertai permasalahan dental anxiety yang sering menghambat proses perawatan, menjadi latar belakang utama perancangan ini. Di Surabaya, kondisi serupa juga ditemukan, ditandai dengan rendahnya kunjungan preventif ke layanan kesehatan gigi, kurangnya kebiasaan menjaga kebersihan gigi pada anak, serta terbatasnya media edukasi yang mampu menjangkau kebutuhan anak secara langsung. Perancangan ini bertujuan menghasilkan interactive learning kit book sebagai media edukasi kesehatan gigi yang menarik, interaktif, dan ramah anak untuk anak usia dini di Surabaya. Metode yang digunakan meliputi pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi literatur, observasi visual, wawancara mendalam dengan dokter gigi anak, ilustrator, penulis buku anak, serta narasumber percetakan, yang didukung oleh tahapan eksperimental dan pengujian prototype. Hasil perancangan berupa kit edukasi berjudul Aku Mau Gigi Sehat! yang terdiri atas buku interaktif Gigiku Sehat!, panduan bagi orang tua, serta kit aktivitas pendukung. Buku interaktif tersebut dilengkapi berbagai fitur permainan edukatif yang dirancang untuk meningkatkan keterlibatan anak dalam proses belajar. Perancangan menerapkan pendekatan visual kartun sederhana, penggunaan warna cerah, karakter yang dekat dengan kehidupan anak, serta narasi berbasis hubungan sebab dan akibat. Media ini diharapkan dapat membantu membangun kebiasaan perawatan gigi sejak dini, mendukung peran orang tua dalam edukasi kesehatan gigi, serta mengurangi dental anxiety melalui pendekatan desain yang menyenangkan dan komunikatif.

The high prevalence of dental caries among young children in Indonesia, accompanied by dental anxiety that often hinders treatment processes, serves as the main background for this design project. Similar conditions have also been identified in Surabaya, as reflected in the low rate of preventive dental visits, limited oral hygiene habits among children, and the lack of educational media that directly addresses children's needs. This project aims to develop an interactive learning kit book as an engaging, interactive, and child-friendly medium for dental health education for young children in Surabaya. The design process employs a qualitative approach through literature review, visual observation, in-depth interviews with pediatric dentists, illustrators, children's book authors, and printing specialists, supported by experimental stages and prototype testing. The final outcome is an educational kit entitled ‘Aku Mau Gigi Sehat!’ consisting of an interactive book, ‘Gigiku Sehat!’, a parent guidebook, and supporting activity materials. The interactive book incorporates various educational play features designed to enhance children's engagement in the learning process. The design applies a simple cartoon visual style, bright colors, relatable characters, and cause-and-effect-based storytelling. This educational medium is expected to help foster positive oral care habits from an early age, support parents' roles in dental health education, and reduce dental anxiety through a fun and communicative design approach.
