Abstract

Periodontal disease is a common oral disease. The main cause is microorganisms that colonize in dental plaque. Dental plaque is a collection of microorganisms that form a biofilm. The most effective way to control plaque is to brush your teeth regularly and use mouthwash. Aloe vera as an herbal plant has many benefits due to its properties, such as; antiseptic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimicrobial, and wound healing. These properties make aloe vera potential to be utilized as an anti-plaque mouthwash. The purpose of this paper is to determine and review the use of mouthwash containing Aloe vera as an inhibitor of plaque formation. Mouthwash containing Aloe vera is proven to inhibit plaque formation, due to its active compounds such as saponins, anthraquinones, phenols and flavonoids.

Abstract

Dental and oral health is a part of body health that cannot be separated from one another because it will affect the overall health of the body. Teeth are one part of the body that functions to chew, speak and maintain the shape of the face, so it is important to maintain healthy teeth as early as possible so they can last a long time in the oral cavity. Several epidemiological studies have shown that oral hygiene and gingival status of various degrees of severity are commonly found in children and adolescents. Teenagers often experience health problems, one of which is dental and oral hygiene problems. School students are the right group for health promotion efforts. This educational activity aims to increase knowledge about dental and oral health and to change individual and/or community behavior in the health sector. The method implemented in this educational activity is to use the online method which is carried out with 57 students at the UNP Padang Laboratory Development High School. The results showed an increase in the mean score from the pretest results of 6.13 and the posttest average score of 8.32, so it can be concluded that educational activities through online media can increase the knowledge of SMA Development Laboratory UNP Padang students in maintaining oral health from an early age. Furthermore, counseling activities using this method can be an option for health workers, especially dentists so that they can reach more remote areas.

Abstract

Dental resin composites have become the first choice among the filling materials due to their aestheticpotential to suit a variety of therapeutic indications and can conserve the tooth structure. However, there areconcerns that this material may be toxic because of the possibility of releasing components after restoration.Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a primary material for dental resins that is a precursor for BisGMA as a natural resin, anddegradation of dental resins can leach BPA to the oral cavity. Despite the possibility of a leachable substance, manystudies concluded that the release of BPA from dental resin composites might not be absorbed systemically. Theyleached less than the toxic level that may cause adverse effects.KEYWORDS: BisGMA, BPA, resin composites,

Abstract

A. actinomycetemcomitans bacteria is the main pathogenic microorganism identified as the cause of aggressive periodontitis, with a prevalence of 90%. Periodontitis treatment is generally done mechanically by scaling root planning (SRP) and chemically by administering antibiotics as antibacterial agents. Specifically, ruku-ruku leaves contain several natural compounds with potential as antibacterials. This study, thus, aims to determine the potency of ruku-ruku leaf extract in inhibiting the growth of A. actinomycetemcomitans bacteria. This study employed a true experimental method in the form of a post-test-only control group design. Ruku-ruku leaf extract was prepared by a maceration method using 96% ethanol solvent and diluted with DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) to obtain concentrations of 10%, 20%, 40%, and 70%. The inhibition test was conducted using the Kirby-Bauer method, which utilized paper discs on Mueller Hinton Agar media. The zone of inhibition formed around the discs was measured. Data analysis was then performed using the One-Way ANOVA test, and the Post Hoc LSD (Least Significant Difference) test was continued. The results of this study revealed significant differences in inhibition from each treatment group. The concentration of 70% ruku-ruku leaf extract is more effective in inhibiting the growth of A. actinomycetemcomitans with an inhibition zone of 7.49 mm. Post Hoc LSD results uncovered p values of 0.001 and 0.003 (p<0.01). In conclusion, ruku-ruku leaf extract has potential antibacterial properties against the organization of A. actinomycetemcomitans.

Abstract

Dental caries is a major health issue commonly affecting children in Indonesia, including those in Lembah Melintang District, West Pasaman. To support the Indonesia Free of Caries 2030 program, preventive efforts are needed through the training and empowerment of school-level dental health agents, known as "young dentists." This preventive approach aims to establish collective behavior in maintaining dental health and to create a sustainable culture of dental health awareness within schools and the community. The purpose of this training initiative is to enhance teachers’ knowledge and skills in teaching the importance of dental and oral health to students. Furthermore, through the empowerment of young dentists, selected students are trained as health agents to contribute to maintaining dental health at school. The methods used in this program include lectures, interactive discussions, and hands-on practice on oral health maintenance. Results showed an increase in teachers’ understanding of dental and oral health, as well as active student involvement as young dentists fulfilling their roles as health agents. Additionally, an improvement in understanding was observed, reflected in increased scores from pretest to posttest. The conclusion of this activity is that the training of teachers and young dentists can strengthen preventive health measures at schools and support the national goal of Indonesia Free of Caries 2030. This training and empowerment model has proven effective in raising awareness and encouraging community participation in early dental caries prevention.
