Analysis of Integration Between Dental and Oral Health Programme and Maternal and Child Health Programme In Neglasari Tangerang City Abstract Dental and oral health problems are still a big public health issue in high income countries, and are a burden for low and middle income countries. Dental and oral diseases become one among 10 diseases that are commonly found in puskesmas in Tangerang City.

This study aims to get an overview of the integration of the UKGM program which is managed by the puskesmas and implemented at the assisted posyandu, to further become the future reference in the formation of policies related to dental and oral health issues in Indonesia.

The research method is a descriptive study with qualitative analysis method by conducting in depth interviews and document tracking. The results concluded that the activities of UKGM have not been well integrated. Posyandu midwives have not been activated in the activities of UKGM, thus seizing the attention of dentists and dental nurses from puskesmas.

It is recommended that training on oral health should also be given to posyandu midwives, not just community cadres. The extension work for community cadres who participate in UKGM activities in posyandu can be divided, so that it does not accumulate and result in dental and oral health promotion is overlooked. Research on the factors influencing policy making on UKGM should be done in the future.
