Abstract

Background: A probiotic drink is an acidic drink. Each type of probiotic drink has different contents. Differences in the surface hardness of composite resin can be caused by the content and pH which damages the bonds of the composite resin which causes a decrease in the hardness of the composite resin. This study aims to determine the difference in surface hardness of nanohybrid composite resin after soaking in the Original and Light Yakult probiotic drinksMethod: The type of the study was laboratory experimental study with post-test design with 2 treatment group. The samples used in this study were FiltexTM Z250 XT nanohybrid composite resin with 32 specimens with a length of 12 mm, width of 2 mm, and thickness of 2 mm. Samples were divided into 2 groups, group A soaked in the Original variant of Yakult and group B soaked in Light variant of Yakult. Samples were soaked for 24 hours in the incubator. Surface hardness of the samples was measued after treatment using Micro Vickers Hardness TesterResult: The results of soaking according to Vickers measurement were tested statistically using the Independent-T Test. The results of the study showed the difference in surface hardness of nanohybrid composite resin after soaking in the Original variant of Yakult and Light variant of Yakult (P<0,05) with an average hardness of 45.81 in Original variant of Yakult and 50.43 in Light variant of YakultConclusion: it can be concluded that soaking in the Original Yakult probiotic drink reduces the surface hardness of composite resin compared to Light Yakult.

Abstract

ABSTRACTBackground: Periodontitis is a multifactorial inflammatory condition that progressively damages the tooth-supporting structures, including the alveolar bone and periodontal ligament. This process involves a rise in pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6, which are essential agents in the inflammation and tissue destruction. Aloe vera (Aloe vera) and manuka honey are recognized for their ability to reduce inflammation and suppress the release of pro-inflammatory signaling molecules, such as IL-6. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of Aloe vera and Manuka honey in reducing IL-6 level in periodontitis rats.Method: Thirty rats were randomly assigned to four experimental groups: a control group, Aloe vera group, Manuka Honey group, and a group receiving a combination of Aloe vera and Manuka Honey. The Aloe vera and Manuka Honey treatments were administered via a gingival injection at a dose of 150 uL. After five days treatment, the rats were euthanized. An ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) was  conducted on the gingival tissue to measure the concentration of Interleukin-6 (IL-6).Result: The combination of Manuka honey and Aloe Vera significantly reduced IL-6 levels compared to the control group (p=0.000).Conclusion: The combination of Aloe Vera and manuka honey are effectively and  significantly reduced on IL-6 level.
