The program to reduce the development of dental caries in elementary school children has not been optimal. So far, the reporting mechanism of the inspection results is still manual so that the resulting data is inaccurate and incomplete. The dental caries management geographic information system (SIG-MKG) provides dental caries distribution data in support of effective and targeted handling. Purpose of Study. The purpose of this research is to produce a decent SIGMKG and its application effectively improve the behavior of dental and oral therapists, the quality of dental caries management, and the quality of data and information. Methods. The methods used are Research and Development and pre-experimental design method. Respondents numbered 30 to assess the behavior (knowledge, attitude, and action) of Dental and Oral Therapists in the application of SIGMKG, the quality of dental caries management, and the quality of data and information. Data tested using paired different tests, proportion tests, and regression tests. Results. Expert validation test on SIG-MKG obtained an average feasibility of 97.23%. Assessment of knowledge, attitudes, and actions after treatment increased significantly compared to before (p=<0.001, p=0.032, and p=<0.001, respectively). Quality of dental caries management and Quality of data and information improved significantly after treatment (p=<0.001). Behavior affects Dental Caries Management Quality and Quality of data and information (p=<0.001). Conclusion. It can be concluded that The application of SIG-MKG provides a significant improvement in the behavior of Dental and Oral Therapists in the application of SIGMKG, the quality of dental caries management, as well as the quality of data and information compared to before.
