Abstract

ABSTRACT Many studies have shown a correlation between periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis, and both areinflammatory diseases that cause damage to their surrounding tissues and have similar characteristics. Periodontitiscan cause an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patientsand can cause systemic inflammation in RA. This review aims to assess the association between the severity ofperiodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis. The method of this study is scoping review. PRISMA method is used as aguideline for searching and selecting articles using four electronic databases with criteria (P: Population)periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis patients, (C: Concept) Relationship between periodontitis and rheumatoidarthritis, (C: Context) periodontal medicine. Articles selection based on the inclusion criteria: journals published in2011-2020, research methods using case-control, cohort, or RCT, subjects diagnosed with RA and Periodontitis, andsubjects age at least 18 years old and exclusion criteria are subjects were pregnant and issues diagnosed with otherdiseases. Six articles included one cohort study and five case-control studies. The result showed a positivecorrelation between periodontitis and RA. There is an association between the severity of periodontitis andrheumatoid arthritisKEYWORDS: Periodontitis, periodontal disease, rheumatoid arthritis

Abstract

The frenulum is an anatomical structure in the oral cavity. Its formed folds of mucosa membranes attach the lip and the cheek to the alveolar mucosa, the gingiva, and the underlying periosteum. Abberansia frenulum is one of the causes of aesthetic and functional problems such as gingival recession, which occurs either due to plaque control or muscle pull issues. One of the treatment options for the anomaly of the frenulum case is by performing a frenectomy procedure. This paper aimed to explain using the z-plasty technique in abberansia frenulum treatment with hypertrophy frenum associated with midline diastema and short vestibule. A 36-year-old female patient came to Periodontic Clinic in Oral dan Dental Hospital, Universitas Padjajaran, Bandung, Indonesia, with chief complaint pain in 41 teeth, and clinically the gingiva appears recession and short vestibule. This situation is alarming in terms of aesthetics and functionality. The treatment of frenectomy with the z-plasty technique is an indication for this case. The frenectomy with the z-plasty method has shown favorable results in aesthetics and functional appearance. The z-plasty technique helped in reducing soft tissue tension so that it can minimize scar formation
