Abstract

Brushing is affected by the strength of hand movements, including the grasping muscles. Excessive brushing of the teeth can result in trauma to the gingiva. This study aims to review the relationship between the strength of the grasping muscles and the occurrence of gingival recession. The cross sectional research method was carried out at Cirendeu State Elementary School, Cimahi. Measurements of handheld muscle strength were performed with a hand dynamometer and gingival recession on an intra-oral clinical examination. The results of the two data will be correlation tests to see the relationship using the Pearson Chi Square Test. The results of the study of twenty children in grade 6 elementary school were weak grip muscle strength of 30% in 6 male students and 20% moderate in 4 students, weak 20% in 4 female students, medium 15% in 3 female students, and strong 15% in 3 female students. There was a gingival recession of 10% each in 2 female and male students. The relationship between the occurrence of recession and strong grip muscle strength was 33.3% (p value <0.5). In 12-year-old children, there was no significant relationship between the strength of the grasping muscles and the occurrence of gingival recession. DOI : 10.54052/jhds.v4n3.p265-276

Abstract

Gingival recession refers to the apical displacement of the gingival margin from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ), which can be caused by mechanical trauma such as excessive brushing force. This phenomenon can affect aesthetics, sensitivity, and overall oral health. Handgrip strength is related to tooth brushing motion. This study aims to examine the relationship between handgrip strength and gingival recession. This research used an analytical observational with a cross-sectional design. With purposive sampling, data were collected from 165 pre-elderly individuals in Cimahi City. Handgrip strength was measured by hand dynamometer, while the gingival recession was clinically assessed with visual. Data was analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The study revealed a prevalence of gingival recession at 94.5%. The analysis results indicated a significant relationship between handgrip strength and the occurrence of gingival recession (p<0.05), with moderate handgrip strength showing the highest proportion of gingival recession. Excessive brushing force contributes to gingival recession, accompanied by high-pressure motion to gingiva and time. There is a significant association between handgrip strength and gingival recession. DOI : 10.54052/jhds.v5n1.p101-112

Abstract

Odontogenic infection is a disease of the oral cavity, the leading cause of caries and periodontal disease. Inadequate ability to brush teeth is one of the causes of this pathological condition. This study aims to determine the description of odontogenic infections at SDN 3 Kalibawang, Kalibawang District, Wonosobo Indonesia. The research procedure used a total sampling technique, and the research variable was students at SDN 3 Kalibawang Wonosobo who experienced odontogenic infections. The tools used in this research were an Android smartphone, the HI BOGI application, and Microsoft Excel. Results odontogenic infections at the school were 70.21% positive in 33 students. The severity of untreated caries by gender: boys are bigger at 61.7%, while girls are 36.3%. Kalibawang State Elementary School 3, Wonosobo Regency, tested positive for an odontogenic infection, one of the causes of which could be triggered by inadequate tooth brushing.
