Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: The occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic may affect the prevalence of patients with complaints of impacted teeth in dental hospital Faculty of Dentistry University of Indonesia (FKG UI), and there is no recent research on the distribution and frequency of impacted teeth based on age, gender, and teeth type in this hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the distribution and frequency of impacted teeth during the COVID-19 pandemic in dental hospitals. Methods: A descriptive study uses the secondary data on impacted teeth patient's medical records. Utilizing purposive sampling, we selected participants for the research by carefully examining medical records to identify individuals that had undergone impacted tooth removal. The study used secondary data from the medical records of oral surgery patients at dental hospital FKG UI from June 2019 to June 2021, including complete patient identity, clinical diagnosis, and panoramic radiograph of the impacted teeth in June 2019 to June 2021. Diagnosis was determined through screening of medical records and panoramic radiographs. Data were analyzed using the statistical analysis software (SPSS version 21, IBM Corp.) Results: From 3,225 medical records of oral surgery patients at dental hospital FKG UI before and during COVID-19 pandemic, A total of 1292 patients were included in the study and 1496 impacted teeth cases were found. The frequency of impacted teeth cases before the pandemic was 825 (55.1%) cases; there were 671 (44.9%) cases during the pandemic. Conclusion: COVID-19 has caused a decrease in the distribution and frequency of impacted teeth cases, mostly in the middle aged patients, while more female as compared to male. The most common occurrence was in the third molars and the lowest was in the second molar tooth. Keyword : tooth, impacted, COVID-19, retrospective studies, wisdom tooth

Abstract

Background: Cleft lip and palate are the most common congenital orofacial anomalies. Dental students must have a basic knowledge, understanding, and awareness of comprehensive cleft management. The Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Indonesia undergraduate program uses the problem-based learning (PBL) method to teach dental students about cleft management. Purpose: This study aims to determine the level of knowledge and exposure to learning with the PBL method regarding comprehensive cleft management. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used, and data were collected from 253 dental students using an online questionnaire via Google Forms. Results: Ten preclinical students (8.5%) had a low level of knowledge, 56 (47.5%) had a sufficient level of knowledge, and 52 (44.1%) had a high level of knowledge of comprehensive cleft management. Among the clinical students, 6 (4.4%), 65 (48.1%), and 64 (47.4%) demonstrated low, sufficient, and high levels of knowledge, respectively. Furthermore, most students were content with the lectures on comprehensive cleft management (46.24% satisfied and 20.55% very satisfied) and the supervision received during the lectures (43.48% agreed and 23.71% strongly agreed). Most students believed the lectures on cleft management could be applied when they graduate as dentists. The Chi-square test showed no significant relationship between learning exposure and the student’s knowledge level. Conclusion: Most Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Indonesia students who had learned about cleft lip and palate using the PBL method had sufficient knowledge about comprehensive cleft management. However, no significant relationship was observed between learning exposure and knowledge level.
