Abstract

The immune system is a system that is able to protect the body from microorganisms that cause disease. This system can limit microbial colonization in the oral cavity and prevent the penetration of harmful substances. The immune system is related to health problems in the oral cavity. Black cumin (Nigella sativa L.) has the main active component, namely thymoquinone. Thymoquinone has an immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antioxidant effect that shows an important role in oral disease management and also in oral health. Research shows that the substance thymoquinone in black cumin has an effect on increasing the immune system in the oral cavity. The research analyzed was research on the effect of black cumin on the immune system for oral health. The use of black cumin containing thymoquinone is effective for increasing the immune system in the oral cavity, if used at a concentration of 0.1%-0.2% and applied directly to the area that is experiencing inflammation. So it can be concluded that black cumin has an effect on increasing the immune system in the oral cavity.

Abstract

Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn) is a traditional medicinal plant with more than 300 species distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. The plant is grown for its fibre as a medicinal ingredient. Rosella has various benefits due to its diverse chemical compounds, such as alkaloids, anthocyanins, flavonoids, tannins, steroids, and sterols. This study discussed the potential of rosella as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and anticholesterol. To observe the chemical compound content of rosella flower extract. Methods: LCMS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry) test to see the content of chemical compounds in rosella flower extract. LCMS test showed that rosella flower extract contains flavonoids, tannins, phenolic-quinic acid, phenolic, and alkaloid chemical compounds. Rosella flower extract contains chemical compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, phenolics, quinic acid, and alkaloids, which have antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties, as well as diuretic, anticholesterol, antidiabetic, and antihypertensive effects. These compounds give rosella great potential as a natural ingredient with various pharmacological applications. Although the results showed that rosella has many pharmacological benefits, further research is still needed to understand the deeper mechanisms and potential clinical use of rosella for the treatment of various diseases, especially in dentistry.

Abstract

Dental health education for children aims to introduce them to the world of dental health and address issues related to teeth. One of the recommended method is through video viewing, which can captivate children's attention, particularly when animated videos are used. This study analyzes the effectiveness of video viewing in improving target knowledge and compares it with other methods. This research involved analyzing national and international books and journals that explore the use of videos as a teaching tool for dental health education among elementary school-age children. Results show videos are highly effective in enhancing children's knowledge of proper teeth brushing. They outperform other methods such as flip charts, leaflets, and posters. When compared to alternative educational methods, videos are almost as effective as hand puppets. However, flip charts, leaflets, and posters remain viable options for dental and oral health education among elementary school children, as they have proven to be effective.

Abstract

Background: Halitosis is an unpleasant mouth odor exhaled during breathing. Approximately 80% of halitosis can originate from the oral cavity, while about 10-20% may arise from sources outside the oral cavity. Halitosis has psychological impacts on individuals, leading to poor social communication and reduced social activities. Objective: To assess the overview of knowledge and information regarding halitosis among employees in the environment of Faculty of Dentistry, Moestopo University. Methods: This study employs a descriptive research design with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique employed is Purposive sampling, the sample size consists of 58 respondents who participated in the study through a questionnaire distributed using Google Forms and paper-based formats, consisting of 15 closed-ended questions. Respondents’ knowledge is categorized into three levels: good, fair, and poor. Results: Based on the distributed questionnaires, 30 respondents (51.7%) demonstrated good knowledge, 18 respondents (31%) had fair knowledge, and 10 respondents (17.2%) exhibited poor knowledge of halitosis. Conclusion: the analysis data concerning the overview of halitosis knowledge among employees in the environment of Faculty of Dentistry, Moestopo University, it can be concluded that the knowledge of halitosis among employees in the Faculty of Dentistry, Moestopo University environment is categorized as good, with a percentage (51.7%).

Abstract

In dentistry, we can correct malocclusion and malposition by moving the teeth with orthodontic treatment. After the orthodontic treatment is done there’ll still be a possibility of relapse. Relapse is when the teeth return to their original position before the orthodontic treatment was done. The prevalence of relapse after orthodontic treatment is still quite high. Relapse prevention can be achieved through the use of mechanical devices but, they have some limitations. Natural materials can be used as an alternative as the prevention method that can prevent the relapse from happening. Roselle extract contains chemical compounds that have the potential to prevent relapse after the orthodontic treatment is done. To observe the potential of chemical compounds in roselle flower extract as a relapse prevention method after orthodontic treatment. This research was a laboratory experiment. The research phase began with the extraction of rosella flowers (Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn), then continued with the second stage, namely the phytochemical screening of rosella flowers (Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn) using the color reaction method. The phytochemical tests showed that the roselle flower extract contains chemical compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. Conclusion: The roselle flower extract contains chemical compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and saponins, which have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it potentially effective in preventing relapse after orthodontic treatment.
