Abstract

Plaque is a soft layer of a collection of bacteria and sticky that adheres to teeth. One of the efforts to control it is to brush your teeth regularly and regularly use mouthwash. Currently, many mouthwashes have been developed with traditional plant ingredients that have antiseptic and antibacterial properties with side effects. One of these traditional plants is Green Tea (Camellia sinensis) and Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Houtt). The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of gargling with steeping green tea (C. sinensis) and nutmeg (M. fragrans Houtt) on the decline in plaque index of adolescents aged 17-19 years. The type of research used is quasi-experiment research one group pre-post test. This research was conducted in October-December 2022. The subjects of this study were Polytechnic students of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Manado aged 17-19 years and willing to be research subjects. The number of samples obtained in this study was 42 people. The treatment given is gargling with steeping green tea (C. sinensis) and nutmeg flowers (M. fragrans houtt). The variable measured is the plaque index. This research instrument uses diagnostic tools and plaque index assessment format. The data obtained were analyzed using a paired sample t-test statistical test. The results of this study showed that the average plaque index before gargling steeping green tea (C. sinensis) was 2.09 and after that was 1.35, had a difference in decrease of 0.74 points. The average plaque index of steeping nutmeg (M. fragrans houtt) before was 2.03 and after that was 1.03, had a difference of 1.00. Based on analysis using paired sample t-test shows there is a significant difference seen from the value of p = 0.00 (0.00<0.05). It can be concluded that the gargling with steeping green tea (C. sinensis) and nutmeg flowers (M. fragrans houtt) can make the plaque index of adolescents aged 17-19 years better.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major concern in clinical health education settings due to its airborne transmission risk. This study aimed to analyze the risk of TB transmission and evaluate the implementation of Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) by students during preventive dentistry procedures in the JKG Care Service Laboratory at Poltekkes Semarang. Using a descriptive-analytic method with a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 60 students through structured questionnaires and direct observation. The results showed that 73% of students demonstrated moderate IPC behavior, and 67% of the laboratory conditions were rated as moderately compliant with standards. Bivariate analysis revealed no significant relationship between student IPC behavior and laboratory conditions (p = 0.885), but there was a significant relationship between IPC behavior and the implementation of preventive dentistry procedures (p = 0.012). These findings indicate that student compliance with IPC is more influenced by procedural application than environmental factors. Strengthening IPC training and supervision during clinical practice is crucial to minimize TB transmission risk in dental health education settings.
