Abstract

Candida albicans has a number of properties, including resistance to various antimicrobial agents, which allow it to survive in the root canals. Lactobacillus reuteri plays a role in maintaining oral health through interactions with the oral microbiome. L. reuteri has potential as a preventive and therapeutic agent against inflammatory diseases. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of irrigation with a reuterin-containing solution on BCR1, ACE2, EFG1, and TEC1 gene expression in C. albicans root canal biofilms. Methods: L. reuteri was cultured in MRS broth and incubated anaerobically for 24 hours at 37°C. C. albicans was cultured in Sabouraud dextrose broth at 37°C for 48 hours. A total of 24 single-rooted premolar teeth were standardized and inoculated with C. albicans before irrigation with 50 μg/mL reuterin as a single, independent variable (Indonesian strain), 50 μg/mL reuterin Prodentis (a strain combination of L. reuteri DSM 17938 and L. reuteri ATCC PTA 5289), 2.5% sodium hypochlorite as positive control, and saline as negative control. A real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay was used to detect the expression of BCR1, ACE2, EFG1, and TEC1 in C. albicans root canal biofilms. Results: Reuterin significantly reduced the expression of BCR1 and ACE2 genes, which play a role in C. albicans biofilm formation, at the biofilm maturation stage (P < 0.05). Reuterin also affected the expression of the EFG1 and TEC1 genes, although the effect was not significant. Conclusion: A reuterin isolate of L. reuteri exhibits antibiofilm activity against the expression of C. albicans genes involved in biofilm formation. Reuterin has potential as an irrigation agent in the treatment of root canals. Further research is needed to shed light on the effectiveness of reuterin against the expression of genes that play important roles in the formation of C. albicans biofilms.

Abstract

Introduction: Viridans streptococci group such as Streptococcus sanguinis (S. sanguinis), an anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria is a well-known for its involvement in dry socket (alveolar osteitis)-associated infection. Systemic amoxicillin, clindamycin and metronidazole have all been shown to be effective to inhibit this bacterium. However, there has been a lack of studies identifying which are the most effective amongst these antibiotics toward Streptococcus sanguinis. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of metronidazole, clindamycin, and amoxicillin in inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis in vitro. Methods: This effectiveness was done by using agar well diffusion methods. S. sanguinis ATCC 10556 were cultured in Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) broth at 37°C under anaerobic condition. After 48h, bacterial cells were harvested and counted using microplate reader (490 nm) to achieve optical density of 0.25-0.30 (107 CFU/mL). Subsequently, 100 μL of bacterial suspension was cultured on BHI agar and each antibiotic suspension was added into each agar well, incubated for 72h at 37°C. The inhibition zone diameters were measured with electronic caliper. All experiments were done in triplicate, and repeated two times in separated occasions. The obtained data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA test. A p<0.05 was considered as significance. Result: The results showed that there was a significant difference in the effectiveness, clindamycin and amoxicillin in inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis (p<0.05), compared to metronidazole. The inhibition zone diameter with mean±SD (mm) are 13.50±2.0, 34.67±2.3 and 32.67±1.7 for metronidazole, clindamycin and amoxicillin, respectively. Conclusion: Clindamycin and amoxicillin are more effective in inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis compared to metronidazole in this study. However, future studies are needed to confirm this result in vivo.

Abstract

Maloklusi merupakan masalah Kesehatan masyarakat yang dapat dicegah (Preventif) ataupun dihalangi (Interseptif). Ortodonti interseptif adalah prosedur perawatan pada periode gigi campur, untuk memperbaiki maloklusi yang mulai terjadi dan mengurangi keparahan pada periode gigi permanen. Deteksi dini terhadap perkembangan terjadinya maloklusi dan potensial prosedur perawatan ortodonti yang sederhana dapat meminimalkan atau menghilangkan perawatan ortodonti yang memerlukan biaya cukup besar. Saat masa pandemi Covid-19 seperti saat ini proses pembelajaran pada semua institusi pendidikan hampir sebagian besar masih dilakukan secara daring dan dengan adanya peraturan mengenai pembatasan kegiatan masyarakat dapat menyebabkan salah satunya adalah hilangnya kesempatan untuk melakukan pemeriksaan gigi anak secara rutin ke dokter gigi. Beberapa masalah yang ditemukan pada orang tua dan anak murid SD Muhammadiyah 06 Tebet Timur diantaranya adalah tidak adanya penyuluhan mengenai kesehatan gigi dan mulut selama masa pandemi Covid-19, dan keterbatasan orang tua untuk memeriksakan gigi anaknya secara rutin ke dokter gigi selama masa pandemi. Pengabdian kepada masyarakat telah dilakukan pada hari Sabtu tanggal 26 Maret 2022 secara daring berupa penyuluhan kesehatan gigi anak secara umum dan pelatihan deteksi dini gigi tidak teratur (Maloklusi) pada anak. Kegiatan berjalan dengan lancar dan analisis terhadap kuesioner yang diberikan untuk mengetahui prior knowledge para orang tua menunjukkan masih kurangnya pengetahuan orang tua mengenai kesehatan gigi anak dan maloklusi

Abstract

Introduction: Matricaria chamomilla (chamomile) is known to possess antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine how effectively Matricaria chamomilla essential oil acts against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Treponema denticola biofilms in vitro. Methods: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans ATCC-29522 and T. denticola ATCC-35405 were separately cultured in brain heart infusion (BHI) broth at 37°C for 2 4h in anaerobic conditions. Each bacterial suspension (200 uL, 107 CFU/mL) was cultured in 96-well plates for 48 h to form a biofilm. Thereafter, biofilms were treated with chamomile essential oil at concentrations of 3.12%, 6.25%, 12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 100% in a time-dependent experiment. Readings were taken at 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, and 24 h. Biofilm mass was evaluated using crystal violet staining (for A. actinomycetemcomitans) and safranin staining (for T. denticola). Biofilms treated with chlorhexidine (0.2%) and untreated biofilms were used as positive and negative controls, respectively. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), with the significance level set to p<0.05. Results: Chamomile essential oil significantly reduced the biomass of the biofilms (p<0.05). The most effective chamomile oil concentrations for inhibiting A. actinomycetemcomitans and T. denticola biofilms were 100% and 50%, respectively, with 24 h incubation periods. The results of ANOVA and the post hoc Least Significant Difference (LSD) test showed a significant reduction (p<0.05) in biofilm mass for all concentrations of chamomile essential oil compared to the negative control across all incubation times. Conclusion: The data suggest that chamomile essential oil can inhibit the biofilm formation of A. actinomycetemcomitans and T. denticola biofilms. It could, therefore, be useful as an alternative treatment to inhibit the biofilms composes of the bacteria tested in periodontal disease cases. However, continued researches are necessary to further explore the mechanisms of this effect.
