Abstract

The recommended tooth brushing duration is 2 minutes to obtain optimal fluoride levels in the mouth. Unfortunately, many people, especially teenagers and children, struggled to comply with the minimum duration. This study developed and tested the effectiveness of a toothbrush with a 2-minute timer prototype. This study determined the gaps and the mean scores of salivary pH, fluoride levels, plaque scores, and the number of Streptococcus mutants between the control group that used manual toothbrushes and the experimental group that used the prototype. A crossover and single-blind method was employed, involving 40 second-grade junior high school students selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data was collected by measuring the pH, fluoride levels, and the number of Streptococcus mutants bacteria in unstimulated saliva. The plaque score was also calculated using the Quigley-Hein modified Turesky plaque index (TMQHPI). The average fluoride level obtained by the experimental group was higher (8.86 ± 1.29) than the one of the control group (1.46 ± 0.44). The Independent T-test showed a significant difference in fluoride levels (p = 0.0001), while no significant difference in salivary was found in pH (p = 0.58) between both groups. The toothbrush with a 2-minute timer prototype developed in this study increased the fluoride levels, preventing dental caries and restoring salivary pH levels.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition where a child's height is insufficient for their age. Stunting in children under the age of five, which can be caused by chronic malnutrition, poses a danger of death. Objective: Stunting can have an impact on dental and oral health by increasing the risk for early childhood caries and delaying tooth eruption, also reducing the number of permanent teeth. Conversely, stunting may be impacted by poor dental health. Literature Study: Periodontal disease can have impact on pregnant women’s fetal growth such as premature birth and low birth weight babies both directly and indirectly. Subsequently, premature babies can increase the risk of stunting. Discussion: One of the stunting behind mechanisms was the discovery of differences in bacterial variations between stunted and normal children. Oropharyngeal bacteria, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis usually found in severe periodontitis, were detected in pregnant women which is likely to disrupt the host's immune homeostasis. Disorders in pregnant women can interfere with the process of tooth development in the fetus. Conclusion: Periodontal therapy in for periodontitis expecting mother, should have decrease the risk of adverse effect of pregnancy such as premature birth and low birth weight, and decrease the risk of having stunting children.
