Abstract

Introduction: Dental health in children plays a crucial role in their growth and development. According to the RISKESDAS results in 2018, 54% of children aged 5-9 years experience dental and oral health problems. Parents play a vital role in the oral health care of children and initiate visits to the dentist. Factors influencing parents to take their children to the dentist include motivation. This research aims to provide an overview of parents’ motivation during their child's first visit to the dentist. Methods: This study involved 126 parents with children aged 7-9 years, with ethical approval from Dr. Moewardi Hospital Number 1.981/XI/HREC/2023. Inclusion criteria were parents of Nur Hidayah Elementary School students with children aged 7-9 years, having experience taking their children to the dentist, living with the child, and being willing to participate. Data collection was conducted in October-November 2023, using a Google Form consisting of 11 questions. Results: The research results indicate that the highest percentage of children's dental visits is at the age of >5 - ≤ 7 years, accounting for 37% . The percentage of parental motivation during the child's first visit to the dentist is divided into 57% internal motivation and 43% external motivation. The primary motivation for the visit is dental complaints, accounting for 61.9% , including tooth extraction (37%), restoration (12%), toothache (8%), orthodontic (2%), caries (2%), calculus (1%), and trauma (1%). The results also show that 33% come for routine check-ups, 2% for preventive care, and 2% to introduce the dental profession. Conclusion: Parents have higher external motivation than internal motivation during their child's first visit to the dentist. The most common reason for parents to take their child to the dentist is dental complaints, with the most common complaint is tooth extraction.

Abstract

Introduction: A midline diastema is a gap between the maxillary central incisors that can lead to aesthetic, psychological, and social issues. Its etiology is multifactorial, with one contributing factor being a high-attachment superior labial frenulum, which may cause relapse following orthodontic treatment. Case: A 22-year-old female patient presented with the chief complaint of a 1.5 mm gap between her upper front teeth, which significantly disturbed her appearance. The patient also had a habit of biting pencils and a history of relapses after previous orthodontic treatment. Case Management: The patient was treated with removable orthodontic appliances consisting of active maxillary and mandibular plates. The active components included finger springs, a labial arch, and continuous springs, which were gradually activated during each follow-up visit. At the eighth follow-up visit, a frenectomy was performed at the Department of Periodontics due to the high attachment of the superior labial frenulum, which posed a potential risk for relapse. Removable orthodontic appliances have been reported to be effective in closing mild to moderate midline diastema, particularly through the tipping movement of anterior teeth. Patient compliance, controlled activation, and appropriate appliance design are critical determinants of success. Frenectomy also contributes to the stability of the outcome by eliminating soft tissue tension that could potentially reopen the diastema gap. Conclusion: The combination of removable orthodontic treatment, frenectomy, and a retention phase with a retainer can yield optimal results in midline diastema cases. Comprehensive evaluation of etiological factors, patient adherence, and long-term monitoring are strongly recommended to prevent relapses.
