Abstract

Introduction: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of gender on the degree of maxillary central incisors and associated gingival display when the lips are at rest and during smiling. Methods: A total of 65 subjects (40 females [61.5%]; 25 males [38.5%]) of Malaysian Malay community studied in UNPAD were included in the study. All of the subjects had all natural anterior teeth present with no caries, extreme occlusal wear, restorations, extrusion, obvious deformities, or tooth mobility. The visible portions of the maxillary central incisor, and associated gingival at rest and smiling were measured vertically from the lower border of the upper lip to the incisal edge of the incisors. The measurements were measured using an electronic digital caliper and repeated three times. The mean value was calculated and statistical analyses were performed by Student t test. Results: Outcome of the study indicated that there is marked difference statistically (p < 0.05) with the clinical crown length display at rest (CCLR). However, the clinical crown length display during smiling (CCLS) and gingival display during smiling (GD) differences is non significant (p > 0.05) between these two genders. Conclussion: Females displayed more clinical crown length of maxillary central incisors than males at rest. During smiling, no gender differences in maxillary central incisors display were recorded, however, females displayed more maxillary gingival than males.

Abstract

Introduction: Saliva is the type of liquid which contains enzyme, hormone, antibody, constituent microbe, and cytokines. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is one kind of proteolysis cellular enzyme in saliva that has a role in inflammation. Saliva is very easy to take and noninvasive treatment, proved efficient for early diagnosis. The purpose of this research was to study the difference MMP-9 level in saliva patient with temporomandibular joint disorders between myofascial pain and disc displacement. Methods: Cross sectional comparative study. The research was carried out at the Prosthodontics Clinic of Arifin Achmad Pekanbaru Hospital and at Biomedical Laboratory of Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Andalas Padang, Indonesia. The saliva samples were taken from 37 myofascial pain patients and 37 disc displacement patients. MMP-9 levels were examined by the Elisa and the data result was analyzed using the t-test. Result: The average value of MMP-9 level of disc displacement was 650.98±384.94 pg/mL and myofascial pain was 168.70±41.24 pg/mL. There was a significant difference on MMP-9 level in saliva between myofascial pain and disc displacement (p<0.05). Conclusion: The MMP-9 level in saliva of patients with disc displacement of temporomandibular joint disorders was higher than patients with myofascial pain.

Abstract

Introduction: The elders are the ones that most often experience tooth loss which affects masticatory function. Masticatory function can be evaluated subjectively through masticatory ability assessment. The masticatory function is influenced by the number of posterior occluding pairs; this also may be called as functional tooth units (FTUs). The purpose of this study was to describe FTUs and masticatory ability in the elderly. Methods: This research was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional study design. Subjects were taken by purposive sampling technique. The study was conducted in the Lebakgede Sub-district, Bandung City. Data mentioned were obtained by conducting interviews regarding data on subject characteristics and questionnaires of masticatory ability, as well as examining the oral cavity to obtain FTUs data. Results: Subjects obtained were 74 people consisting of 63 women (85.14%) and 11 men (14.86%). Based on the results, the average age of the research subjects was 68.49 years, and those with good masticatory ability status were 26 elderly (35.14%) with an average FTU value of 5.9 while 48 elderly (64.86%) had poor masticatory ability status with an average FTU score of 1.5, even 31 subjects (41.89%) had a zero FTU score. Conclusion: The majority of the elderly in this research mostly had a low total FTUs score which means that the masticatory ability status in the elderly tended to be poor.
