Abstract

Drug-induced gingival overgrowth (DIGO) is a condition where the gingiva is abnormally enlarged caused by anticonvulsant, calcium channel blocker, and immunosuppressant drugs. Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, is used to treat hypertension and is reported to be the first drug to cause gingival overgrowth. The prevalence of gingival overgrowth induced by calcium channel blockers including amlodipine is 6%-83%. This case report was written with the aim of presenting information on the management of DIGO treatment in hypertensive patients without drug replacement also underlines the importance of integrating science-based health education in dental care to support treatment adherence and patient literacy. The 60-year-old female patient came to the Dental Clinic of Bhayangkara Brimob Hospital with the main complaint of enlarged gums since one year ago almost throughout her mouth. Gum enlargement is slow and painless, but sometimes bleeds when brushing teeth. The patient had a history of high blood pressure and was prescribed amlodipine 10 mg once a day and routinely consumed since the last 5 years. Cleaning of supra and sub-gingival tartar, prescribing chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2% mouthwash to be swished before bedtime, and motivating the patient to continue to maintain oral hygiene. Conclusion: Amlodipine is one of the drugs that cause DIGO (Drug Induced Gingival Overgrowth). Good dental hygiene and patient education have a major role in improving the condition of gingival enlargement.

Abstract

Dentin hypersensitivity is characterized by brief, intense pain triggered by external stimuli that affect exposed dentin with open tubules. The condition is primarily caused by two factors: the exposure and loss of dentin and the opening of dentin tubules, which allows sensory signals from the pulp to be transmitted in response to stimulation of the dentin surface. A precise diagnosis is crucial before initiating treatment and begins with a thorough patient medical history and clinical examination. Various treatment options have been developed to manage sensitivity, focusing primarily on nerve desensitization and the closure of open dentinal tubules. Developing a better understanding of the causes and mechanisms of dentin hypersensitivity is essential for effective prevention and treatment strategies for patients suffering from this condition. This review aims to provide dental professionals with comprehensive knowledge about dentin hypersensitivity, including its causes, diagnostic procedures, clinical management techniques, and innovative methods for reducing sensitivity.

Abstract

Malocclusion is an inappropriate relationship of opposing teeth when the jaws are in contact. This malocclusion condition can cause oral cavity problems, one of which is traumatic ulcers. Traumatic ulcers are one of the most common lesions on the oral mucosa, where there is a loss of the epithelial layer beyond the basement membrane and affects the lamina propria which is generally caused by trauma. Traumatic ulcers can occur on the oral mucosa, including: on the tongue, lips, buccal mucosa folds, gingiva, palate, labial mucosa, buccal mucosa and floor of the mouth. The clinical picture of traumatic ulcers is not specific depending on the etiology, has a smooth surface, a yellowish lesion base and red margins and no induration. Ulcers usually heal without leaving a trace in 10-14 days, spontaneously or after eliminating the cause. Traumatic ulcers can occur at any age, both in men and women. The prevalence of traumatic ulcers is quite high. Several studies show variations in the range of 3 - 24% of the population. Management of traumatic ulcers is in the form of correcting predisposing factors. Local symptomatic treatment is the standard treatment for simple traumatic ulcers. Therapy in this case is to provide Oral Hygiene Instructions on the importance of maintaining dental and oral health. In addition, the patient was prescribed topical hyaluronic acid (Aloclair gel 8 ml) to reduce pain, povidone iodine antiseptic mouthwash and vitamin B12 to accelerate healing and the patient was asked to check 1 week after treatment. Summary of the results of traumatic ulcer therapy due to class I malocclusion with topical hyaluronic acid Aloclair gel 8 ml, antiseptic povidone iodine mouthwash, and vitamin B12 showed significant improvement in symptoms. Aloclair gel helps reduce pain and accelerate healing, while antiseptic mouthwash helps prevent infection. Vitamin B12 plays a role in accelerating the wound healing process.

Abstract

Tooth loss affects quality of life, chewing function, and facial aesthetics. Dental implants offer a more stable and comfortable solution compared to other treatments, but their success depends on the alveolar process and osseointegration. Bone insufficiency can lead to implant failure, making bone augmentation necessary. This study reviews case reports on implant placement with bone augmentation using titanium mesh. The first case involves a 37-year-old patient who had an accident, where titanium mesh was used to support bone growth after tooth extraction and bone grafting. The results showed good bone development. The second case discusses the placement of 46 implants with a 3.3 mm diameter in a 63-year-old woman, with CBCT evaluation to assess bone thickness. Monitoring showed optimal osseointegration and good tissue healing. This success was achieved through careful planning, appropriate augmentation techniques, and strict postoperative evaluation and monitoring. In conclusion, the success of dental implant placement depends on an individualized approach, technology-based planning such as CBCT, and the right augmentation techniques. With an optimal strategy, implant stability, as well as functional and aesthetic outcomes, can be achieved, providing long-term benefits for patients. ABSTRAKKehilangan gigi berdampak pada kualitas hidup, fungsi mengunyah, dan estetika wajah.

Abstract

Dental implants are a superior treatment method for replacing missing teeth, offering the advantages of functional stability and the ability to preserve jawbone structure. This case review focuses on evaluating the various procedures, challenges, and clinical outcomes of dental implant interventions in patients with various complaints. Key steps in the cases analyzed included the collection of demographic and clinical data, a medical history evaluation, and an examination of the soft and hard tissue conditions. Additionally, periapical radiographs were used to evaluate the alveolar bone volume surrounding the implant area. Key findings highlight several effective techniques: the use of multi-unit abutments in the posterior jaw allows for angled implant placement to avoid important anatomical structures (such as the sinuses or mental foramen), thus eliminating the need for bone grafting and saving time and money. Prophylactic antibiotic therapy and a 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash were also found to be effective in preventing postoperative inflammation, even in diabetic patients, without impairing osteointegration. Other findings confirm that longer implants are more durable, and the success of bone grafting in repairing bone defects depends heavily on careful planning and operator skill. It is concluded that the clinical challenges of dental implants can be overcome through proper planning, advanced surgical techniques, and a thorough understanding of the patient's condition. ABSTRAKImplan gigi merupakan metode perawatan superior untuk menggantikan gigi yang hilang, menawarkan keunggulan stabilitas fungsional dan kemampuan mempertahankan struktur tulang rahang. Tinjauan artikel kasus ini berfokus pada evaluasi berbagai prosedur, tantangan, serta hasil klinis dari intervensi implan gigi pada pasien dengan beragam keluhan. Langkah-langkah penting dalam kasus yang dianalisis meliputi pengumpulan data demografi dan klinis, evaluasi riwayat kesehatan, serta pemeriksaan kondisi jaringan lunak dan keras. Selain itu, radiografi periapikal digunakan untuk mengevaluasi volume tulang alveolar di sekitar area implan. Temuan utama menyoroti beberapa teknik efektif: penggunaan abutment multi-unit di rahang posterior memungkinkan penempatan implan miring untuk menghindari struktur anatomi penting (seperti sinus atau foramen mental), sehingga meniadakan kebutuhan pencangkokan tulang serta menghemat waktu dan biaya. Ditemukan pula bahwa terapi antibiotik profilaksis dan obat kumur klorheksidin 0,12% efektif mencegah peradangan pasca-operasi, bahkan pada pasien diabetes, tanpa mengganggu osteointegrasi. Temuan lain mengkonfirmasi bahwa implan yang lebih panjang lebih tahan lama, dan keberhasilan bone graft untuk memperbaiki defek tulang sangat bergantung pada perencanaan matang serta keterampilan operator. Disimpulkan bahwa tantangan klinis implan gigi dapat diatasi melalui perencanaan yang tepat, teknik bedah canggih, dan pemahaman menyeluruh atas kondisi pasien.

Abstract

Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a very common and debilitating complication of Diabetes Mellitus disease that greatly affects quality of life. The literature review aims to critically summarize recent findings that examine the development of understanding of DN, from a simple complication to a complex and multifaceted disease. This study used a literature review based on articles obtained from Google Scholar and PubMed databases. All articles discussed Diabetic Neuropathy from the perspective of pathophysiology, clinical classification, diagnosis, and management. The analysis was conducted using a descriptive-qualitative approach, reported pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapy options. Based on the search, all articles that met the inclusion criteria were narrative reviews, consensus studies, and case reports. These articles outlined the complexities of Diabetic Neuropathy diagnosis, evolving pathophysiological theories, and therapeutic approaches. A multidisciplinary diagnostic approach that includes a thorough history, neurological clinical examination, and ancillary tests (e.g., HbA1c, MRI) is essential. Management involves pharmacological therapy (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants, gabapentinoid), non-pharmacological therapy (e.g., cognitive behavioral therapy, nerve blocks), and comprehensive oral health management. Interdisciplinary collaboration between clinicians, neurologists, and endocrinologists is essential for optimal patient care. Further research is needed to understand the detailed mechanisms and develop more effective therapies

Abstract

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a paroxysmal neuropathic pain disorder characterized by sharp, brief, and recurrent pain in the trigeminal nerve distribution. Because it occurs in the maxillofacial region, TN is frequently mistaken for odontogenic pain, leading patients to seek dental care and risk unnecessary procedures. This review aims to summarize current literature on the clinical features, diagnostic challenges and management of trigeminal neuralgia in dental practice, highlighting the important role of dentist in its detectione and care. The diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia was based on multidisciplinary approach, including history taking according to ICHD-3 criteria, dental vitality testing, neurological examination and MRI, with specialist collaboration in complex cases. The results showed that trigeminal neuralgia is frequently misdiagnosed as odontogenic pain, requiring history, neurological exam, MRI, and dental evaluation for accurate diagnosis. Carbamazepine was the primary treatment, with surgery for refractory cases, and a multidisciplinary approach proved essential. Trigeminal neuralgia requires accurate evaluation and dentist involvement to ensure proper diagnosis and effective management.
