Abstract

Background: Dental caries can cause health problem among pregnant women including pain, eating and sleeping disturbances. It’s impact to the physical, social and mental health and also affected their disruption of the quality of life. Objectives: This study aims to determine the relationship between the severity of dental caries and the quality of life among pregnant women at the Lubuk Buaya Public Health Center. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that involving 74 pregnant women. The quality of life was measured by the OHIP-14 questionnaire with seven assessment aspects. Quality of life categories is good (score ≤ 27) and poor (score >27). PUFA index was used to assess caries severity. PUFA categories is negative (PUFA = 0) and positive (PUFA ≥1). Data were analyzed by chi-square test. Results: This study show that almost respondents (55.4% of pregnant women) have PUFA (+), with mean 0.82 ± 0.86 SD. Most pregnant women have poor quality of life (51.4%). Some chief complaints discovered due to the severity of caries like disruption of tasting food 10.8%, discomfort during chewing the food 48.7%, feeling tension 10.5%, stopping while eating 56.8%, feeling not relaxed 17.6%, daily activities disturbance 8.1% and less happy 9.5%. Pregnant women with PUFA (-) had more good quality of life, while pregnant women with PUFA (+) had more poor quality of life (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Caries severity influence quality of life. This suggests the need for strategies to prevent and manage caries in pregnant woman.

Abstract

Introduction: Impression material is a material used to obtain negative impressions of teeth and oral tissues. Alginate impressions have deficiencies in dimensional stability, thus affecting the accuracy of the impression. The imbibition and syneresis processes affect the dimensional stability of the alginate. To overcome the change in dimensional stability, modification of alginate with sago starch was carried out. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of adding sago starch (Metroxylon sago) at concentrations of 32.5%, 37.5%,   and    42.5%    on    the    dimensional    stability    of alginate. Methods: In this study, a comparison of the dimensional stability of pure alginate and alginate-added sago starch will be observed. The method used was an experimental laboratory study with a pre-and post-test control group design. Results: The mean difference in the dimensional measurements of the two treatments in group A was 0.0110; group B was -0.0021; group C was -0.0006; and group D was -0.0016. Statistically, there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between filling for 0 minutes and 30 minutes in the alginate group with the addition of sago starch. Conclusion: There was a change in the dimensional stability of the gypsum impressions of pure alginate groups with the addition of 32.5%, 37.5%, and 42.5% sago starch. The alginate group, with the addition of 37.5% sago starch, experienced the smallest dimensional changes.

Abstract

Children's dental health is very important to ensure the child's nutritional status, speaking ability and attractive appearance. Nutrition, diet and dental health in children are closely related, especially in children who are in the growth and development phase. Good quality and proper nutrition is very important to support dental health. Likewise, dental health is also important for adequate nutritional intake. If the teeth and mouth are healthy, then nutritional intake will be optimal, and if nutrition is optimal then the growth and development of the teeth and mouth will also be optimal. As many as 89% of children in Indonesia suffer from dental disease. A number of surveys show that more than a third of the toddler population has experienced toothache and one sixth of them have had at least one tooth extracted. The growth and development of teeth is influenced by nutrition. Healthy dentition will occur if all nutritional elements are available in sufficient quantities. The aim of the activity: to provide education to young children about the importance of nutrition for the growth and development of teeth and mouth. The activity method used is the tell-show-do method with presentations using power point media, posters, models of teeth and toothbrushes, as well as examination of children's teeth and mouths. This method is one of the most appropriate methods for providing education to early childhood. Results of the activity: increased knowledge of children and the emergence of a sense of courage when having a dental examination by a dentist. Conclusion: This activity has a positive impact on young children because children understand better that there is a connection between nutrition and oral health.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Oral and dental health problems can be prevented through dental health education in which methods and media play an important role in increasing knowledge. Media that is often used in schools is still conventional, therefore research on modern media use is needed. This study intended to analyze the difference between digital educational games and PowerPoint-based videos in improving oral hygiene knowledge. Methods: This study method was a quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group and pretest-posttest design. The study population were 36 second-grade students at Elementary School 20 Kalumbuk, in Padang, Indonesia, selected using total sampling, with inclusion criteria being 7-8 year olds who brought informed consent forms which were already signed by parents and were in good overall health. The sample that met the inclusion criteria was 32 students and were divided into two groups. A total of 16 students in the experimental group (Group A) received oral health education through digital educational game media, while the remaining 16 students in the control group (Group B) were provided with PowerPoint-based video media. Data were collected by giving questionnaires both before and after education. The data analysis was using a paired t-test and an independent t-test. Results: The oral hygiene knowledge average increased 2.94 in Group A and 1.68 in Group B. The paired t-test showed significant improvement in both groups (p = 0.000). The independent t-test revealed a significant difference between digital educational games and PowerPoint-based videos (p = 0.037). Conclusion: There is a significant difference between digital educational games and PowerPoint-based videos in improving dental and oral hygiene knowledge among children aged 7-8 years. The digital educational games demonstrated a higher increase in knowledge compared to the PowerPoint-based videos.

Abstract

Background: Infectious diseases, particularly viral infections, represent a major global health concern, with significant implications for oral health. Despite their clinical relevance, oral manifestations of viral infections are often underdiagnosed due to their complex and varied presentations. Early recognition of these manifestations can aid in timely diagnosis and management, improving overall patient outcomes. Objective: This study aims to systematically review the oral manifestations associated with viral infections to provide a comprehensive reference for healthcare professionals in diagnosing and managing such conditions. Methods: A systematic review was conducted using five databases, including PubMed and Scopus, to identify relevant studies published between 2014 and 2024. Keywords such as "oral manifestation" and "viral infection" were used. Eligible studies were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, focusing on articles in English with clinical relevance to oral health. Data were extracted independently by multiple authors and analyzed to identify patterns and significant findings regarding oral manifestations of viral infections. Results: The review identified 133 articles, with 24 studies meeting the inclusion criteria. Key findings revealed that human herpesviruses, including HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV, EBV, CMV, HHV-6, HHV-7, and HHV-8, frequently present with distinct oral lesions. These lesions range from vesicles and ulcers to gingival overgrowth and vascular tumors. The study highlights the diagnostic importance of oral findings, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Conclusion: Oral manifestations are critical diagnostic indicators of viral infections and provide an opportunity for early disease recognition. A thorough understanding of these manifestations can enhance clinical diagnosis, reduce healthcare costs, and improve patient outcomes. Future research should focus on developing diagnostic algorithms incorporating oral and systemic findings for better clinical utility.

Abstract

Coated tongue is a mucosal condition characterized by a white or yellowish layer on the dorsum of the tongue due to the accumulation of debris, desquamated epithelial cells, and microorganisms. This condition is often associated with poor oral hygiene, xerostomia, smoking habits, and systemic diseases. This study aims to evaluate the profile of coated tongue incidence and its relationship to related risk factors at RSGM Universitas Andalas. This study is a retrospective descriptive study with a total sampling technique. Data were taken from patient medical records at the Oral Disease Polyclinic of RSGM Universitas Andalas in January–December 2023. Data collected included gender, age, cases of coated tongue , and risk factor status such as smoking, systemic diseases, drug use, stress, and Candida infection. Of the 620 patients, 566 (91%) had coated tongue. A higher prevalence was found in men (56%) than women (44%). All age groups 31–60 years showed a prevalence of coated tongue of 100%, while the age group 21–30 years was 91%. Most patients with coated tongue have smoking habits (69%), systemic diseases (80%), drug use (75%), and a small number experience stress (8%) and Candida infection (6%).Coated tongue is a very common condition in patients who come to RSGM Universitas Andalas, with a strong association with lifestyle and systemic factors. Promotive and preventive interventions are needed to increase awareness of tongue hygiene, as well as handling the accompanying risk factors.

Abstract

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition initiated by microbial dysbiosis and driven by host immune responses, notably the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which contribute to tissue damage. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid), a potent antioxidant, plays a role in collagen synthesis and immune regulation. Several studies have proposed vitamin C as an adjunct in periodontal therapy, yet its effectiveness remains unclear. This systematic review aims to evaluate the effect of vitamin C supplementation on clinical periodontal parameters in patients with periodontal disease. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and Scopus for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between January 2015 and June 2025. Included studies investigated vitamin C supplementation in patients with periodontal disease without systemic conditions, pregnancy, lactation, or medication use. Studies involving vitamin C in combination with other nutrients without a separate vitamin C-only group were excluded. Data extraction and analysis followed the PRISMA guidelines. Four RCTs met the inclusion criteria. Significant clinical improvements were observed in periodontal parameters following non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). However, the addition of vitamin C supplementation alone did not consistently provide significant improvements beyond NSPT alone. One study showed greater improvements when vitamin C was combined with melatonin, and another suggested potential benefits from guava—a natural source of vitamin C and polyphenols—over synthetic vitamin C. Current evidence suggests that while vitamin C supplementation may offer modest anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, it does not consistently enhance clinical outcomes in periodontal therapy when used alone.

Abstract

Introduction: Lactobacillus acidophilus is one of the dominant bacteria that plays a significant role in the development of dental caries. This bacterium produces extracellular polysaccharides that facilitate bacterial adhesion to dental plaque. One of the approaches to preventing dental caries is the use of antibacterial agents to inhibit bacterial growth in dental plaque. Averrhoa bilimbi (cucumber tree fruit) leaves have the potential to act as antibacterial agents due to the presence of active compounds that can inhibit bacterial growth. Aim: To determine the effect of Averrhoa bilimbi (cucumber tree fruit) leaf extract on inhibiting the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356. Methods: This study was an experimental laboratory with a post-test only control group design. The concentrations of Averrhoa bilimbi leaf extract used were 6.25%, 12.5%, 25%, and 50%, and a negative control of aquadest (sterile water). Results: The analysis with One Way ANNOVA showed p-value < 0.05, indicating a significant effect of Averrhoa bilimbi leaf extract in inhibiting the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356. Conclusion: Averrhoa bilimbi (cucumber tree fruit) leaf extract has an effect on inhibiting the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4356. These findings suggest the potential of Averrhoa bilimbi leaf extract as a natural antibacterial agent
