Abstract

General Background: Class III malocclusion is a prevalent dental anomaly characterized by the anterior positioning of the mandible relative to the maxilla, posing functional and aesthetic challenges. Specific Background: This condition may present with additional complexities such as dental crowding, open bite, and macroglossia, complicating the orthodontic treatment approach. Knowledge Gap: While conventional treatment modalities include orthognathic surgery and growth modification, there is limited documentation on the efficacy of orthodontic camouflage in non-surgical settings, particularly in adults with completed growth. Aims: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of orthodontic camouflage using anterior stainless steel loops in managing dentoskeletal Class III malocclusion accompanied by anterior open bite and macroglossia, without premolar extraction. Results: Over a 7-month treatment period, significant corrections in overjet, overbite, and molar relationship were achieved, demonstrating the potential of this approach as a non-surgical alternative. Novelty: This research introduces a modified technique involving stainless steel wire with specific loop placements, contributing to the orthodontic management strategies for complex Class III cases. Implications: The findings support the broader application of camouflage techniques in orthodontic practice, offering a viable option for patients opting out of surgery and highlight the need for further studies to optimize and validate such approaches.Highlights: Efficiency of Camouflage: Shows how orthodontic camouflage can effectively treat complex Class III malocclusion without surgery. Novel Technique: Introduces a new method using stainless steel loops in wires to enhance treatment outcomes. Clinical Implications: Expands non-surgical treatment options in orthodontics, offering viable alternatives to surgery. Keywords: Class III Malocclusion, Orthodontic Camouflage, Open Bite, Macroglossia

Abstract

The increasing incidence of malocclusion in children, often caused by unnoticed bad habits like thumb sucking and mouth breathing, highlights the need for prevention. This community service activity aimed to provide Dental Health Education (DHE) at Muhammadiyah 1 Elementary School in Sidoarjo to 41 children aged 6–8 years (21 boys, 20 girls), along with their parents and teachers, emphasizing the importance of maintaining dental health and preventing malocclusion caused by harmful habits.The methods used in this community service activity include enhancing Dental Health Education (DHE) through counseling to eliminate bad oral habits and prevent malocclusion. Efforts involve empowering junior dental health cadres to conduct oral health checks at schools, increasing students' knowledge about the impact of bad oral habits, educating on prevention and cessation of these habits, and implementing strategies to prevent malocclusion. Evaluation was conducted through dental molds, facial profile photographs, and intraoral photographs. The expected outcomes of this activity include increased public awareness of bad habits and their impact on dental health, as well as the establishment of dental health cadres at schools to perform regular dental health checks. Additionally, this activity will result in the publication of scientific articles and educational videos to be disseminated via electronic media. This community service successfully enhanced public knowledge about the importance of avoiding bad habits to prevent malocclusion, while also providing a sustainable platform for dental health education through collaboration among the community, schools, and faculties in the future.

Abstract

Background: During pregnancy, physiological hormonal changes increase inflammatory responses, particularly in gingival tissue, making gingivitis and periodontitis more likely to occur, which can lead to pregnancy complications such as premature birth and low birth weight. This risk is even higher in pregnant women with malocclusion, especially during the first, second, and third trimesters. Therefore, appropriate and continuous education is crucial for pregnant women with malocclusion to enhance awareness of oral hygiene and health, as well as early detection during pregnancy. Objective: To implement preventive educational efforts targeting the risk of gingivitis and periodontitis among pregnant women with malocclusion who visit the Sedati Sidoarjo Health Centre, regardless of whether they are undergoing orthodontic treatment or not. Method: Interactive education and question-and-answer sessions based on extraoral and intraoral photographs and oral cavity examinations were conducted on 51 pregnant women who came for check-ups at the KIA clinic. All of the pregnant women had malocclusion, and 10 of them wore braces. The examination was conducted to assess the condition of the gums, teeth, and periodontal tissues. Results: The pregnant women enthusiastically participated in the activity, becoming familiar with the terms gingivitis, periodontitis, and malocclusion, and understanding the importance of maintaining oral hygiene, especially during pregnancy. The examination results showed that dental plaque (86.27%) and red gums (54.9%) were most prevalent among women aged 20–35 years and in the second and third trimesters. Conclusion: Interactive education combined with extraoral and intraoral examinations is highly effective in improving oral health during pregnancy and serves as an early detection method for gingivitis, periodontitis, and malocclusion. Most pregnant women with malocclusion in their reproductive years experienced gingivitis, and some also had periodontitis. Highlights: Hormonal changes increase gingivitis and periodontitis risk during pregnancy. Malocclusion worsens oral health issues, especially in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters. Interactive education and examinations improve awareness and early detection.

Abstract

Background: Double impaction of two teeth in the same region specifically tooth 22 and tooth 23 is a rare condition that requires a combined treatment approach involving fixed orthodontics and surgical exposure. Fixed orthodontic treatment is essential to prepare space, guide tooth movement after surgical exposure, prevent root resorption, and correct overall malocclusion. Surgical exposure is performed to expose the tooth crown, preserve the alveolar bone, avoid root exposure, and facilitate the attachment of buttons and ligatures. Impacted teeth can affect the stomatognathic system, facial growth, and aesthetics. The maxillary incisors and canines play a critical role in occlusion, masticatory function, and facial aesthetics, thus requiring appropriate management. Objective: To describe the management of a double impaction case in the anterior left maxillary region of a 19-year-old female patient using a combined approach of fixed orthodontic and surgical treatment. Methods: The patient underwent fixed orthodontic treatment and sequential extraction of premolars 14 and 24 to create space for the eruption of the impacted teeth and to correct the midline before surgical exposure. Post-surgical exposure, orthodontic treatment was continued to guide both teeth into proper alignment within the dental arch. Results: Teeth 22 and 23 successfully erupted with good occlusion. The patient's masticatory function and facial aesthetics improved over a 2-year period following surgical exposure. Conclusion: Fixed orthodontic treatment combined with surgical exposure is an effective strategy for managing double impaction of anterior teeth in the left maxillary region, considering the position of the crowns, tooth inclination, and root apex morphology of the impacted teeth. Highlights: Double impaction of teeth 22 and 23 is rare and affects function and aesthetics. Combined surgical and orthodontic treatment effectively guided tooth eruption. Treatment restored occlusion, midline, and facial aesthetics over 2 years. Keywords: Anterior tooth double impaction, surgical exposure, fixed orthodontic treatment

Abstract

Hormonal changes, number of pregnancies (gravida), gestational age, education level, and the presence of malocclusionespecially if accompanied by the use of bracescan increase the risk of gingivitis and periodontitis in pregnant women. This study aims to analyze the relationship between gravida, gestational age, and education level on the incidence of gingivitis in pregnant women with malocclusion. The study involved 51 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria and provided consent by signing an informed consent form. Interviews and oral screenings were conducted, and the data were analyzed using the Chi-squared test. The results of this study found that the number of pregnancies (gravida) had a significant relationship with the incidence of gingivitis (p = 0.024) and dental caries (p = 0.029). Gestational age showed a significant relationship with the incidence of periodontitis (p = 0.003) and dental caries (p = 0.020). Meanwhile, educational level did not show a significant relationship with gingivitis or periodontitis, but was significantly associated with dental caries (p = 0.050). It is concluded that there is a significant relationship between gravida, gestational and education level with dental caries in pregnant women with malocclusion. Gestational age is significantly associated with periodontitis, and gravida is significantly associated with gingivitis.
