Abstract

Objective: Aims of this study was to observe dental and oral care treatment needs of Down Syndromechildren who are members of the Parents’ Association of Children with Down Syndrome (POTADS) inSurabaya. Material and Methods: This study used secondary data from dental and oral examinationrecords of total sample 34 Down Syndrome children aged 5-17 years who attended community serviceprogram “SPECIAL CHILDREN DENTAL VISIT -1” from August to October 2017. Results: Only fewsamples showed good oral hygiene though most of them brushed their teeth twice a day which likely relatedto physical and mental limitations. Most samples had cariogenic dietary habits with def-t/DMF-T scorewere below 10. Malocclusion founded can be worsen by oral bad habits which has existed in most samples.Conclusion: From this study it can be concluded that the most indicative treatment for Down Syndromechildren are restorations and extractions.Good collaboration between parents and caregivers is needed toprevent more severe oral health problems which need more complex dental treatment. Children with DownSyndrome are entitled to the opportunity to develop and get special services, including in terms of oralhealth. With good oral health, the quality of life of Down Syndrome children can improve.

Abstract

Background: Ankyloglossia or tongue tie is a congenital condition that results when the inferior lingual fraenulum is too short and attached to the tip of the tongue, limiting its normal movements.  It causes restricted tongue mobility which in turn causes feeding difficulties and speech problems. Purpose : The article was aimed to report the treatment of an  eight years old boy  who came with the chief complaint of difficulty in moving his tongue freely which causes speech difficulties. Case Management : The patient was treated for a lingual frenectomy procedure under local anaesthesia using one haemostat method. The haemostats were used to delimit the area to be excised as well as to guide the incisions. One haemostat used to clamp the upper aspect of the fraenulum may be helpful to guide the incision close to the ventral surface of the tongue. After the release of the tongue, care must be taken not to injury the submandibular ducts when making the second incision at the lower aspect of the fraenulum. After 1 to 2 weeks the incision was completely healed. Discussion: Ankyloglossia occurs due to failure in cellular degeneration leading to longer anchorage between tongue and floor of the mouth. Surgical intervention for treating ankyloglossia includes conventional technique with hemostats, electrocautery and laser. In this case, patient was undertaken surgical intervention using one hemostat method. Conclusion: The ankyloglossia case showed that the frenectomy gave good healing with no post operative complications in 8 years old boy.

Abstract

Background: The prevalence of TMD (temporomandibular disorder) in children and early adolescents varies widely. TMD can cause permanent facial deformities and affect occlusion and speech, which will affect growth, development, and quality of life. For prevention, early detection is needed. However, early detection is often not possible due to a lack of understanding of the normal shape of the condyle. Research on the normal shape of the condyle and symmetry in children and early adolescents has not been much done. Purpose: To evaluate the shape of normal condyles in a population of children and early adolescents aged 4–19 years and determine the most dominant shape and symmetry. Methods: 220 mandibular condyles of 110 children aged 4–19 years (mean 11.4 years) were analyzed retrospectively using an orthopantomograph. Condyle types in primary, mixed, and permanent dentition were categorized according to Yale (convex, rounded, flat, angled) and Chaudhry classification (oval, diamond, bird beak, crooked). Right and left mandibular condyle symmetry was observed according to a previous study by Ribeiro. Results: In primary, mixed, and permanent dentition, the most dominant condyle shapes were (Yale, Chaudhry): 91.6% rounded, 100% oval; 95.8% rounded, 97.9% oval; 98% rounded, 97% oval, respectively. Asymmetry in the right and left mandibular condyles was not found in primary dentition; there were 2 cases in mixed dentition and 3 cases in permanent dentition. Conclusion: In children and early adolescents aged 4–19 years, the normal condyles found are: rounded, convex, angled (Yale), and oval, diamond, or bird beak (Chaudhry). The condyles are dominated by rounded and oval shapes. The incidence of asymmetry in the right and left mandibular condyles probably increases with age.

Abstract

Medical emergencies can occur in dentistry, including trauma to primary teeth. The global prevalence of dental trauma in children is 10-15%. Trauma to primary teeth can have severe medical, aesthetic, and psychological impacts. Parents and teachers at school are among the most important actors in providing emergency dental care for children. Therefore, providing information that increases parents’ and teachers’ knowledge about pediatric dental emergencies must be done so that appropriate management can be carried out. The method used was training on managing pediatric dental emergencies for parents and teachers at Whiz Kids Playschool Kindergarten. The evaluation showed increased participants’ knowledge before (Range = 10–80, Mean = 47.2) and after (Range = 70–100, Mean = 87.0) the training. Thus, this training successfully increased parents’ and teachers’ knowledge of managing pediatric dental emergencies.

Abstract

Kesehatan gigi dan mulut sangat penting, terutama pada anak-anak dengan Down Syndrome, yang memiliki prevalensi masalah gigi lebih tinggi karena keterbatasan intelektual dan fisik. Anak down syndrome (DS) juga memiliki keterbatasan gerak motorik halus yang menyebabkan kesulitan menyikat gigi, anak DS cenderung menemukan kesulitan dalam menyikat gigi di daerah belakang, sehingga memerlukan pendampingan orang tua dalam melakukannya.  Pada pola maka, anak DS sering mengkonsumsi makanan tinggi karbohidrat dan gula dimana meningkatkan risiko karies. Kondisi tersebut diperburuk dengan pH saliva yang bersifat asam pada anak DS, memudahkan terjadinya demineralisasi gigi. Permasalahan lain seperti feeding problem  atau memilih- milih makanan dan menelan tanpa mengunyah mengarah pada pola makan tidak sehat, meningkatkan risiko obesitas pada anak DS , khususnya anak laki-laki.  Studi ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup anak DS melalui peningkatan kesehatan rongga mulut dengan program edukasi menggunakan cue cards cara merawat dan pemilihan makanan  baik untuk kesehatan rongga mulut yang melibatkan peran orang tua. Metode ini memanfaatkan pendekatan visual untuk mempermudah pembelajaran dan melibatkan pengukuran OHI-S, pola diet kariogenik, dan tingkat keasaman saliva anak-anak DS. Program dilakukan pada anak DS di POTADS Surabaya dengan evaluasi menggunakan alat diagnostik dan kuesioner. Dengan program ini maka orang tua anak DS dapat mengetahui kondisi , permasalahan yang ada pada rongga mulut anak  dan mengetahui cara untuk meningkatkan kesehatan rongga mulut melalui pendekatan edukasi kebersihan mulut dan pola makan sehat.

Abstract

Background: Electromagnetic fields are forces associated with moving electric charges and have electrical, magnetic components and contain electromagnetic energy, one of which is radio frequency (RF) energy which is commonly used in telecommunications. Cell phones are one of the RF electromagnetic radiation devices that can emit 90-2450 MHz waves and are often placed near the head. The human body works like an electromagnetic field in that each cell has its own electrical circuit characteristics. As the number of electromagnetic radiation devices in the environment increases, the electromagnetic balance in the human body may be disturbed by the magnetic waves produced by cell phones. Electromagnetic radiation is known to have the ability to induce oxidative stress, which is characterized by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tissues. The accumulation of ROS in the body leads to osteoblast cell death. Osteoblasts are needed for mineralization of the extracellular matrix during bone growth. Therefore, bone growth is not optimal and can caused malocclusion. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between electromagnetic radiation and osteocalcin and bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP) serum levels. Methods: Experimental laboratory research with a pre- and post-control group design approach was carried out on 12 Rattus norvegicus Wistar strain. Osteocalcin and BALP serum levels were calculated before and after treatment. This study used the t-test as a comparative study (p<0.05). Results: There are significant differences in osteocalcin and BALP values between the treatment groups before and after treatment. Conclusion: Cell phone radiations (electromagnetic field exposure) reduce osteocalcin and BALP serum levels.
