Their local characteristics, one, of course, not the same in nature as the west's culture. Indonesia, with its cultures diversity, poses some problems in dental health education therefore, a good strategy in dealing with the problems is needed.

It is hoped that with the use of this educaiton pattern, the local people will develop a good attitude toward dental and oral health care. |
