Abstract: Interesting media that needs to be introduced to early childhood is 3D puzzle media, namely a media that has parts that can be attached and removed and has 3-dimensional elements and provides an interesting story visualization, starting from displaying images of various shapes and types. The purpose media puzzle which is carried out through dental health promotion activities in schools. This research is a Research and Development (R&D) study. The Research and Development is one of the research processes in developing a new product or perfecting an existing product and can be accounted for. Research and development procedures include 5 main steps including: 1) Gathering information, 2) Product or model design, 3) expert validation and revision, 4) product or model testing and 5) Product or model results. The research sample was 50 children at WiduriBanyumanik Kindergarten, Semarang City. The results of Wilcoxon for p-value children's knowledge before and after the intervention with 3D puzzle media is 0.001 while for the children's skills before and after the intervention with 3D puzzles is 0.001, so it can be concluded that Ha is accepted, meaning that there is a significant change between the value of knowledge and children's skills before and after the intervention in the form of interventions with gamification-based 3D puzzle media. Mediapuzzles -based 3D gamification as education to increase knowledge and skills in maintaining early childhood dental health.
