ABSTRACT
The number of elderly people in Indonesia is increasing every year. Increasing age in the elderly is degenerative resulting in non-communicable diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension. DM and treatment of hypertension cause hyposalivation so that the self-cleansing effect is reduced and dental and oral hygiene worsens. The aim of this study was to describe the status of oral hygiene in elderly prolanis participants at Puskesmas Sentolo 1, Kulon Progo. Type of research is descriptive observational with a crosssectional, using a total sampling technique and obtained 88 respondents.
