The proportion of correct dental behavior in the age group above 3 years in Jambi Province is only 1% and Muaro Jambi Regency (1.16%), the lowest nationally. Marlia and Silfia (2019) that counseling with videos in the Jambi regional language is effective in improving dental skills in Pelempang Village children.
