Abstract

Background: Enterococcus faecalis bacteria is widely regarded as the leading cause of root canal treatment failure due to its ability to survive in extreme environments. The use of herbal plants such as Aloe vera can be used as an intracanal medicament because it has been proven to have an antibacterial property. Calcium hydroxide (aqueous) intracanal medication mixed with Aloe vera is able to inhibit the growth of Enterococcus faecalis, to see the antibacterial effectiveness of the combination of Aloe vera extract with calcium hydroxide paste (aqueous) as an intracanal medicament against Enterococcus faecalis bacteria. Methods: This experimental research was conducted in the laboratory with a post-test control design. The number of research samples used was 30 pieces. The maceration method was used to make the Aloe vera extract and the Mc Farland turbidity standard was adjusted for Enterococcus faecalis bacterial growth. Then to determine the antibacterial effectiveness, the inhibition zone which is the area around the well that is clear and smaller in diameter than the well, was measured using a digital caliper. Results: Statistical tests were performed using the Kruskal Wallis test and obtained a significance number of 0,000 (p <0.05) then the Mann Whitney test was carried out to obtain a significance number of 0.000 (p <0.05). Conclusions: According to the results of this study, calcium hydroxide paste was less effective at killing Enterococcus faecalis bacteria than a mixture of calcium hydroxide and aloe vera extract.

Abstract

Background: This study aims to discover the practice preparedness and dentists’ mental condition in Semarang during Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.Method: This is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional online study design. Subjects in this study is 171 members of persatuan dokter gigi Indonesia (PDGI) Semarang branch. Research subject was asked to fill questionnaire on practice preparedness during COVID-19 pandemic and depression anxiety stress scale (DASS-42) in Indonesian shared by researchers through Google form link. Data was analyzed using Spearman correlation, Mann-Whitney, and multinomial logistic regression tests.Result: Bivariate test result showed significant correlation between practice preparedness and DASS depression score (p =0.021 and r=-0.176) and anxiety DASS score (p=0.018 and r=-0.181). There was a significant correlation between training and DASS score depression (p=0.023), anxiety (p=0.025), and stress (p=0.040). Multinomial logistic regression multivariate test result depicted a significant relationship between training and moderate depression (p=0.04 and OR=5.65). Dentists with no training have a higher risk of 5.65 times on moderate depression compared to those with training during COVID-19 pandemic and infectious disease prevention and control training.Conclusion: The better practice preparedness, the milder depression and anxiety of dentists during pandemic. Practice preparedness does not affect dentists’ stress during COVID-19 pandemic. Training may also have an impact on dentists’ depression during COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Dental and oral health refers to the condition of the oral cavity and periodontal tissues being free from disease and pain. Optimal function of these structures indicates good oral health. Dental and oral health status can be expressed by the prevalence of dental caries and periodontal disease, assessed through indices such as def-t/DMF-T, OHI-S, and Gingival Index. This study aimed to determine the levels of def-t/DMF-T, OHI-S, and Gingival Index, and to describe the overall dental and oral health status among students with intellectual disabilities at Grobogan State Special SchoolMethod: This study employed a descriptive observational design with a non-experimental, cross-sectional approach to describe existing conditions through direct observation. A total of 52 students with intellectual disabilities were included using a total sampling technique.Result: DMF-T/def-t examination showed unsatisfactory findings, with the highest proportion of respondents categorized as very high (30.77%) and high (21.15%). The OHI-S examination indicated a moderate level, with most respondents (44.23%) falling within this category. The Gingival Index revealed generally good results, with the largest proportion categorized as normal (46.15%).Conclusion: Highest percentages of OHI-S and Gingival Index were found among students with moderate physical intellectual disabilities, while the highest def-t/DMF-T scores (very high category) were found among those with sensory intellectual disabilities
