Abstract

Background: A pathological condition in which the obstruction of tooth eruption in the jaw arch is caused by no eruption path for teeth to grow within the predicted period. This condition is called dental impaction. The prevalence of impacted teeth is highest in women compared to men. The etiological factor is due to systemic, local, genetic, and ethnic factors. Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between sex and the classification of the third molar impaction of the lower jaw in patients of RSGM Andalas University viewed by panoramic radiography. Materials and Methods: The type of research conducted is observational analytical research with a Cross-sectional research design with purposive sampling techniques. The sample in this study was a panoramic X-ray of patients from RSGM Andalas University who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The number of samples is calculated using the Lemeshow formula. Based on the calculation results, the number of research samples was obtained as many as 32 X-ray photos. The data was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: Distribution of frequency classification according to Pell Gregory based on known position that regions 38 and 48 in men and women occur most in position A and based on male class regions 38 and 48 often experience tooth impact in class II, while women often experience in class I, with a value of p 0.05. Conclusion: Based on the results of statistical tests, there is no significant relationship between sex and the classification of lower triple molar impaction seen by panoramic radiographs.

Abstract

Background: Dental caries is a multifactorial disease characterized by the destruction of the hard tissues of the teeth. Various age groups can experience dental caries and are more vulnerable in children, especially in elementary school. One of the factors that influence the occurrence of dental caries is the socioeconomic status of parents. Parents' socioeconomic status can be measured by education, occupation, and income. Several studies have shown that dental caries is more common in people with low socioeconomic status. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between parents' socioeconomic status and dental caries in children aged 11-12 years at SDN 03 Pakan Kurai Bukittinggi. Material and Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. The number of research samples was 56 children. The sample selection used the Simple Random Sampling method. The instrument used was a questionnaire to measure the parent's socioeconomic status and the dental caries assessment based on the DMF-T/def-t index. Data analysis used a Chi-Square statistical test with p0.05. Results: The results showed that the prevalence of dental caries in children was 83.9%, the DMF-T+def-t index was 2.46, and the socioeconomic status of the respondents' parents was primarily low. The results of statistical analysis between parents' socioeconomic status and children's dental caries obtained p value = 0.000. Conclusion: There was a relationship between parents' socioeconomic status and dental caries in children aged 11-12 at SDN 03 Pakan Kurai Bukittinggi

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.
