Background: Varicosities lingualis were enlarged veins that are prominent and visible on the ventral surface of the tongue. The etiology of varicosities is physiological aging and predisposing factors including hypertension, obesity, smoking, and diabetes mellitus. This serial case aims to assess the relationship between varicosities lingualis and hypertension as a predisposing factor.Method: The case report method uses three patient subjects who write using the SOAP method (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Planning).Outcome: Three patients, one female and two males with an age range of 19 years to 25 years, complained of a purplish-blue line under the tongue. All cases showed a purplish-blue line under the tongue. The management given is non-pharmacological, including Communication, Information, and Education (IEC).Conclusion: Hypertension plays an essential role as a predisposing factor in the development of varicosities lingualis due to the hemodynamic effects that cause dilation of blood vessels.

Periodontitis continues to be a debilitating problem when improperly treated. This condition is associated with certain periodontopathological bacteria, including Porphyromonas gingivalis. Chlorhexidine, while proven effective against bacteria in the oral cavity, carries unwanted side effects. Curcuma domestica and Moringa oleifera are domestic herbs that possess several therapeutic effects. This study aims to investigate the antibacterial effect of the combined two herbs in extract gel. This experimental study used three combination formulas of C. domestica: M. oleifera (0.1%:2%, 0.5%:4%, 0.9%:6%) as the test group and chlorhexidine as the positive control group. The antibacterial inhibition disc method was used to determine the antibacterial activity in each group. The statistical analysis was carried out with Kruskal-Wallis and continued with the Mann-Whitney test. In this study, extract gel combination of Curcuma domestica and Moringa oleifera at concentrations of (0.1%:2%; 0.5%:4%; 0.9%:6%) can inhibit the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis with average inhibition zone diameters of 12.50 mm, 14.49 mm and 16.66 mm, respectively. The inhibition zone falls in the strong category. The control group showed a mean inhibition zone of 20.96, which is classified as a very strong inhibition zone. Although there was a significant p-value between the test and control groups, the results suggested the potential of the extract gel as an alternative for treating periodontitis with lesser side effects.

ABSTRAK Kanker rongga mulut merupakan salah satu jenis kanker yang sering dijumpai di dunia, dengan prevalensi yang meningkat, terutama di Indonesia. Kabupaten Temanggung, sebagai salah satu pusat produksi tembakau terbesar di Jawa Tengah, menunjukkan tingginya insiden lesi suspek kanker rongga mulut yang sering kali terabaikan oleh masyarakat. Pendekatan deteksi dini sangat diperlukan untuk menurunkan angka kejadian kanker rongga mulut yang sering terdiagnosis pada stadium lanjut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan masyarakat Desa Kledung, Kabupaten Temanggung, terutama bagi lansia yang memiliki kebiasaan merokok atau mengunyah tembakau, mengenai deteksi dini kanker rongga mulut melalui metode SAMURI (Periksa Mulut Sendiri). Metode pengabdian masyarakat yang dilakukan mencakup sosialisasi, edukasi, dan penerapan metode SAMURI kepada 15 peserta lansia yang berpartisipasi. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam pengetahuan peserta tentang bahaya merokok terhadap kesehatan rongga mulut, serta kemampuan mereka dalam melakukan deteksi mandiri dengan SAMURI. Penggunaan media edukasi seperti poster dan buku saku juga terbukti efektif dalam memperkuat pemahaman peserta. Program ini diharapkan dapat menjadi model untuk pencegahan dini lesi rongga mulut di komunitas lain, khususnya di kalangan lansia yang berisiko tinggi akibat kebiasaan merokok. Kata Kunci: SAMURI, Lansia, Merokok, Kanker Mulut, Lesi Rongga Mulut ABSTRACT Oral cavity cancer is a type of cancer commonly encountered worldwide, with increasing prevalence, especially in Indonesia. Temanggung Regency, as one of the largest tobacco-producing centers in Central Java, shows a high incidence of suspected oral cavity lesions that are often overlooked by the community. Early detection approaches are necessary to reduce the incidence of oral cavity cancer, which is frequently diagnosed at advanced stages. This study aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of the community in Kledung Village, Temanggung Regency, especially among elderly individuals with smoking or tobacco-chewing habits, regarding early detection of oral cavity cancer through the SAMURI method. The community service approach implemented includes socialization, education, and application of the SAMURI method to 15 elderly participants. Evaluation results showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge about the dangers of smoking on oral cavity health, as well as their ability to conduct self-examination using SAMURI. The use of educational media such as posters and pocket books was also proven effective in reinforcing the participants' understanding. This program is expected to serve as a model for early prevention of oral cavity lesions in other communities, particularly among elderly individuals at high risk due to smoking habits.

Angular cheilitis and pseudomembranous candidiasis are oral infections caused by Candida albicans. Angular cheilitis patients also experience oral candidiasis because the Candida reservoir is intraoral. Iron deficiency anemia was closely related to this infection. A 50-year-old female patient complaint of pain in the commissure and tongue 3 weeks ago. Extraoral examination showed anemic conjunctiva and fissure erythema with crusting in bilateral commissures. Intraoral examination showed atrophy of papillae with a yellowish-white plaque that can be scraped off and leaves erythema on the tongue. A complete blood examination was performed and showed a decrease in hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocytes, MCV, MCH, and MCHC. The patient was diagnosed angular cheilitis and pseudomembranous candidiasis with iron deficiency anemia. The therapy was miconazole 2% cream, nystatin oral suspension 100.000 IU/ml, and iron supplements. The lesions healed after 2 weeks of therapy and the patient was consulted to an internist. The patient has Angular cheilitis and pseudomembranous candidiasis triggered by iron deficiency anemia. Iron deficiency anemia causes a decrease in salivary transferrin protein which is fungistatic so that Candida grows excessively. Angular Cheilitis therapy is miconazole cream which inhibit the synthesis of ergosterol and nystatin for candidiasis therapy which works by binding to Candida plasma membrane sterols, causing leakage and then death. Iron deficiency anemia therapy is iron supplements; however, drug therapy alone is less effective, and consultation with an internist is required for further therapy. Anemia has big potential to be a risk factor for angular cheilitis and pseudomembranous candidiasis so comprehensive treatment is needed.

Traumatic ulcers are mucosal injuries that trigger inflammation, requiring safe and effective alternative therapies. Butterfly Pea flowers and Mint leaves contain bioactive compounds with potential anti inflammatory effects. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Telang flower and Mint leaf mouthwash as an anti-inflammatory in patients with traumatic ulcers. The research method used was laboratory experimental with pre-post study design was conducted on 28 respondents using three formulation concentrations (10%, 30% and 50%). The results showed that the mouthwash with Telang flower and Mint leaf extracts had good organoleptic test results, a normal pH test and a good viscosity test. In the Wilcoxon test results, it was found that there were differences before and after the use of Telang flower and Mint leaf extract mouthwash at concentrations of 10%, 30% and 50% with a p-value<α (0.05). This study concludes that the mouthwash combination of Telang flower and Mint leaf extracts at a concentration of 10%, 30%, and 50% effective for anti-inflammatory.
