Abstract

One of the main causes of dental caries is Streptococcus mutans. Some sourcesmentioned in the mangosteen peel contains flavonoids, saponins and tannins whichhave antibacterial activity. The purpose of this research was to determine theantibacterial activity of mangosteen peel infuse against S.mutans, the most effectiveinhibition and minimum inhibition. The sample was divided into 10 groups: negativecontrol (K), positive control (K +), and the treatment group of infusa mangosteen rindwith concentration of 100%, 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%, 3.13%, 1.56% and 0.78%.Negative control group only containing BHI-B. Positive control group containing BHI-B,S.mutans and Tetracycline hydrochloride. The treatment groups containing BHI-B, S.mutans and different concentration of each group. S.mutans colonies was counted usinga colony counter. Data were analyzed with the Kruskal Wallis test followed by Mann-Whitney test. Results of this research showed that infuse mangosteen rind was effectiveas an antibacterial. The most effective concentration which can inhibit S.mutans colonieswas 100% and the minimum concentration was 0.78%.Keywords: Mangosteen peel infuse, antibacteria, Streptococcus mutans, Tetracycline

Abstract

Background: Panoramic radiograph is a dental radiodiagnosis which is often used to assist in establishing diagnosis and determining treatment plans using low dose x-ray radiation exposure.The basic working principle of panoramic radiograph is using ionizing radiation which causes ionization reactions on the affected objects. Radiation area in patients undergoing panoramic radiograph involves salivary glands, thus it generates certain impacts in the quality and quantity of saliva produced. Aim: To analyze the effects of panoramic dental x-ray radiation exposure on salivary pH. Research Method: This study used quasi experimental research method with pre and post test only control group design. Eight people were chosen as samples based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Saliva testing was performed to the chosen samples pre and post panoramic dental x-ray radiation exposure. The research data were measured using paired t-test statistical analysis. Result: There wassignificant difference on salivary pH pre and post panoramic dental x-ray radiation exposure (p<0,05). Conclusion: Panoramic dental x-ray exposure can decrease salivary pH. Keywords: Panoramic radiograph, Salivary pH
