Abstract

Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is a prevalent oral disease that detrimentally impacts the quality of life for those affected. One of the several factors that can trigger the emergence of RAS is stress. Psychological stress can adversely affect health and decrease the immune system. Studies in the field of Psychoneuroimmunology have shown the relationship between human behaviour, nerve function, and psychological stress, which can potentially act as a cause of disease and reduce the immunity of the oral mucosa. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the correlation between stress and the incidence of Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis on bank employees in Tulungagung, East Java. It is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach, involving male bank employees with a marketing position, aged between 27 and 40 years. Data were analyzed and interpreted using the Chi-square test with a nominal variable data scale. The results showed that the asymp. value sig (2-sided) is 0.000, indicating a significant relationship. In conclusion, there is a relationship between stress and Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis.

Abstract

The mouth sores are one of the most common oral lesions in adolescents, which refer to several different conditions, the most common of which are recurrent aphthous stomatitis and traumatic ulcers. Traumatic ulcers are generally caused by physical trauma such as biting while chewing, sharp foods, or improper brushing techniques. Recurrent aphthous stomatitis is idiopathic, with predisposing factors of hormones, stress, and nutritional deficiencies. Although relatively mild, canker sores can cause pain, interfere with eating and speaking activities, and reduce quality of life. Early prevention is very important, one of which is through a nutritional approach. Pineapple (Ananas comosus) contains phytochemical compounds such as bromelain, vitamin C, and antioxidants which are known to have anti-inflammatory effects and accelerate wound healing. This community service activity aims to introduce the public, especially high school students, to mouth sores, their causes, how to prevent them, and the potential of pineapple as a natural agent in preventing canker sores. The activity was carried out in the framework of the Open House of the Bhakti Wiyata Kediri Health Science Institute and was attended by 100 high school students from various public and private schools in Kediri City and its surroundings, consisting of 57 female students and 23 male students. The activity methods were in the form of counseling, presentation, and pre and post tests. The survey results showed an increase in participant knowledge from 58.2% to 92.6%. This activity was effective in increasing student awareness of mouth sores and the benefits of pineapple in maintaining oral health.
