Counseling and training on how to overcome bad breath were provided to the community of RT015/RW008, Jatipulo Sub-district, Gambir District, West Jakarta as a community service activity by FKG Usakti. The counseling for these 30 community members covered the causes of bad breath originating from food/drinks, cavities, and systemic diseases.

Additionally, the ways to overcome bad breath by regularly brushing teeth and consulting a dentist were explained. The community was also trained on how to brush teeth on a tooth model correctly, as well as the use of dental floss, tongue cleaners, and mouthwash.

This community service could take place due to good teamwork led by drg. Sheila Soesanto, MKG as the head of the community service, and supported by team members consisting of faculty, students, and alumni, namely drg. Aditya Pratama Sarwono, M.H, MARS, Sp.Pros, drg. Eddy, PhD, drg. Hani Yuliarsi, Sp.Pros, drg. Johny Halim, MKG, drg. Josephine Priska, drg. Jessica Amanda Putri, Winnie Valentini, Yasnill, Vallerie Trisha, and Suci Centini Harahap, SE.

Through this activity, it is hoped that the community can prevent and overcome bad breath effectively. Moreover, there is an expectation for a change in the behavior of brushing teeth correctly, so that the oral health of the community can improve and be protected from various diseases.
