Abstract

Until now, cavities (caries) is still a dental and oral health problem that requires the attention of health workers. In some countries, the prevalence of dental disease has been reported to have declined, but from Riskesdas data the prevalence in Indonesia is still quite high at 72.86%. The WHO Global Oral Health Program (GOHP) advises countries in the world to develop policies for the prevention of dental and oral diseases and the promotion of dental and oral health. especially for school children and teenagers. One form of effort undertaken is to carry out a Fluorine rinse program in the Taman Siswa village of the Embassy of Silau Village by empowering Posyandu cadres to become dental health cadres. It is expected that this program can increase public awareness, especially the school community, to maintain oral and dental health so that optimal oral and dental health can be achieved for school children.

Abstract

Coated tongue is a clinical condition characterised by the accumulation of debris, desquamated epithelial cells, and microorganisms on the dorsum surface of the tongue which can be used as an indicator of a person's general level of oral hygiene. This condition can be found in all ages and genders and is often associated with halitosis (bad breath). The onset of halitosis is due to the production of VSC (volatile sulfur compound) compounds by gram-negative anaerobic bacteria that colonise the surface of the tongue. Halitosis is a multifactorial condition that can negatively affect the quality of life and social relationships of sufferers. Therefore, socialisation efforts need to be made through education to all levels of society. This article aims to review the literature on the definition, aetiology, classification and various considerations in the management of coated tongue and halitosis in dentistry. Poor tongue hygiene is significantly associated with increased levels of VSCs and intensity of bad breath. Management strategies that include mechanical tongue cleaning such as the use of a tongue scraper have been shown to be effective in reducing halitosis levels. The role of dentists as health workers in the community is needed to create good oral health in the community, including efforts to optimise it through socialisation of maintaining tongue hygiene. Thus, coated tongue is an important etiological factor that needs to be considered in the evaluation and management of halitosis.

Abstract

Pendahuluan: Halitosis adalah istilah umum yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan keadaan bau nafas tak sedap yang keluar dari mulut serta melibatkan kesehatan dan kehidupan sosial seseorang. Salah satu terapi untuk mengatasi halitosis yang sering dilakukan adalah dengan menggunakan obat kumur. Jeruk lemon (Citrus limon) sudah lama dikenal sebagai obat dan bahan untuk membuat minuman, penyedap masakan, karena memiliki daya antibakteri dan antioksidan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas berkumur jus jeruk lemon terhadap penurunan skor halitosis. Metode: Jenis Penelitian ini adalah eksperimental klinis dengan rancangan pre dan post tes control group design. Subjek berjumlah 30 orang, yang dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok yaitu kelompok berkumur jus jeruk lemon dan betadine. Pengukuran skor halitosis menggunakan Tanita breath checker. Tanita breath checker adalah monitor seukuran telapak tangan yang dapat mendeteksi dan mengukur keberadaan senyawa volatile sulfur compound (VSC) dengan menampilkan skor halitosis. Pengukuran dilakukan sebelum dan sesudah berkumur hari pertama dan hari ketujuh. Hasil: Terdapat penurunan skor halitosis yang signifikan pada kelompok berkumur jus jeruk lemon yaitu; sebelum perlakuan 4,13±0,63, sesudah berkumur hari pertama 3,06±0,70 dan hari ketujuh 0,60±0,50 sedangkan pada kelompok obat kumur betadine yaitu sebelum perlakuan 3,86±0,74, sesudah berkumur hari pertama 2,80±0,67 dan hari ketujuh 0,80±0,56. Skor halitosis Hasil analisis statistik menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara selisih skor halitosis kelompok perlakuan dan kontrol (p>0,05). Simpulan: Berkumur jus jeruk lemon sama efektif dengan obat kumur betadine dalam mengatasi masalah halitosis.  Effect of gargling with lemon juice on the reduction of halitosis scores in high school students: a clinical experimental studyIntroduction: Halitosis is a general term used to describe the condition of unpleasant breath odor originating from the oral cavity, which can affect an individual’s health and social life. One of the most common treatments for halitosis is the use of mouthwash. Lemon (Citrus limon) has long been known for its medicinal properties and use as a beverage ingredient and flavoring agent due to its antibacterial and antioxidant activities. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of gargling with lemon juice in reducing halitosis scores. Method: This clinical experimental study used a pre- and post-test control group design involving 30 subjects divided into two groups: the lemon juice group and betadine mouthwash group. Halitosis scores were measured using the Tanita breath checker, a palm-sized monitor that detects and measures volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) by displaying a halitosis score. Measurements were conducted before and after gargling on day one and day seven. Results: There was a significant decrease in halitosis scores in the lemon juice gargle group, before treatment 4.13 ± 0.63, after the first day 3.06 ± 0.70 and after the seventh day 0.60 ± 0.50. Similarly, in the betadine mouthwash group, halitosis scores were 3.86 ± 0.74 before treatment, 2.80 ± 0.67 after the first day and 0.80 ± 0.56 after the seventh day. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference (p>0.05) between the changes in halitosis scores in the two groups. Conclusion: Gargling with lemon juice is as effective as betadine mouthwash in reducing halitosis problems.

Abstract

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common type of oral cancer with high morbidity and mortality rates. This study aims to examine a comprehensive approach to the early detection, grading and multidisciplinary management of OSCC. Early detection of OSCC, through the use of clinical examination, radiologic imaging and molecular biomarkers, is essential to improve patient prognosis. Grading of OSCC using histopathological evaluation and the TNM classification system, provides critical information on tumor aggressiveness and guidance for therapeutic decisions. Effective management of OSCC requires a multidisciplinary approach involving various medical specialties to provide comprehensive care. Primary therapies such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, as well as adjuvant therapies including immunotherapy and targeted therapies, play an important role in optimizing clinical outcomes and patient quality of life. The study also identifies recent advances in imaging technology and genetic analysis that can improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment effectiveness.
