Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: The approximate prevalence of Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) was 45.42% at Gusti Hasan Aman Dental Hospital Banjarmasin. Bacillus sp. is a bacterium that can form spores that can be transmitted through air, dust, water and food. Poor oral conditions will increase the possibility of bacterial contamination, especially for ulcers found in RAS. This study aimed to analyzed correlation between the presence of Bacillus species and OHI-S in the oral ulceration of RAS patients. Methods: This was an analytical cross-sectional study conducted among Oral Medicine Department outpatients at Gusti Hasan Aman Dental Hospital, Banjarmasin, Indonesia. A total of 38 subjects were examined to assess Oral Hygiene Index Simplified and obtained bacteria samples using the swabs technique. Bacteria were then inoculated in blood agar base media and concurrently presented with gram staining. Bacteria were then identified using the catalase test, urease test, and oxidase test. Results: Bacillus species were predominantly identified in oral ulceration of RAS patients at Gusti Hasan Aman Dental Hospital Banjarmasin. Bacillus sp. (60,5%), Streptococcus sp. (34,2%), Neisseria sp. (2,6%), and Lactobacillus sp. (2,6%) were found in ulcerated RAS lesions. Spearman test resulted in p = 0.862 (p > 0.05), where no significant difference was obtained between presence of bacillus species and OHI-s in recurrent aphthous stomatitis patients. Conclusion: Bacillus species were predominantly identified in oral ulceration of RAS patients a. However, the presence of Bacillus sp. was not associated with OHI-S in RAS patients.Keywords: bacillus sp.; oral hygiene index simplified; recurrent aphthous stomatitis

Abstract

Background: Open comminuted mandibular parasymphyseal fractures present significant challenges due to fragment instability, disrupted occlusion, and increased risk of complications, particularly in cases with dental malalignment where conventional stabilization methods are limited. Objective: To report the application of interdental tension band wiring as a pre-ORIF reduction adjunct in an open comminuted mandibular parasymphyseal fracture.Case: A 41-year-old male presented with anterior open bite and intraoral bleeding following a motor vehicle accident. Clinical and radiographic findings confirmed an open OCSS CMF Type II left mandibular parasymphyseal fracture with dental malalignment. Conventional adjuncts such as arch bars were considered suboptimal due to the risk of further displacement and periodontal injury. Case Management: Interdental tension band wiring using a 0.4-mm multiple loop configuration was applied as a pre-ORIF reduction aid, followed by definitive fixation with a 2.4-mm reconstruction plate. The technique enabled controlled fragment approximation through dental–periodontal anchorage. At one-month follow-up, satisfactory wound healing, stable occlusion, and normal mandibular function were achieved without complications. Conclusion: Interdental tension band wiring may serve as a practical and cost-effective reduction adjunct in selected cases of open comminuted mandibular parasymphyseal fracture with dental malalignment, offering a clinically adaptable approach when conventional techniques are limited. Keywords: Bone plates, fracture fixation, malocclusion, mandibular fractures

Abstract

Background: Fibrous dysplasia is a developmental disorder of the bone, characterized as a benign pathological condition, and its etiology is not yet known. Fibrous dysplasia can occur in the entire body frame, but is most often found in the skull, maxilla, and mandible. Management of fibrous dysplasia is observation and conservative surgery. Objective: To report the management of recurrent fibrous dysplasia of the maxilla. Case: A 33-year-old female patient came to Universitas Airlangga Dental Hospital with a chief complaint of a lump on her right cheekbone, asymmetrical face, painless, and had a history of maxillectomy in the right region in 2013. CT radiography was performed with a result of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia involving the maxillary bone, nasal, zygoma, skull base, sphenoid, and right frontal bones. Case Management: Ostectomy and surgical recontouring were performed under general anesthesia, along with the extraction of teeth 11, 12, 21, and 22. Postoperative recovery was uneventful. Conclusion: Immediate surgical treatment for recurrent FD of the maxilla is necessary, and regular radiographic follow-up is important to see its progression. Keywords: Fibrous dysplasia, Maxilla, Non-communicable disease, Recurrent, Surgical recontouring

Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic and the policies taken by the Indonesian government have had a major impact on health sectors and resulted in changes in health services patterns provided by the Emergency Department (ED) in dental hospitals. Identifying changes in dental hospital visits is pivotal to formulate policies that must be prepared immediately and adapted to the dynamics for the use of dental and oral health service during pandemic. Objective: This study compares services at the ED of the Universitas Airlangga Dental Hospital during the pre-pandemic and the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.Method:This is a retrospective study, based on data extracted from the medical records of all patients who came to the ED during March-July 2019 and the COVID-19 period (March-July 2020). Patients were classified according to the case diagnosis, and the data of the two periods were statistically compared using the independent t-test or the Mann-Whitney U test, as applicable. Results:There was an increase in the number of patient visits in March-July 2020 (503 patients) compared to March-July 2019 (113 patients). The highest number of visits was in April 2020 (143 patients). Infection and miscellaneous cases were the most common in both periods with drastic increase in 2020. There were significant differences in the total number of visits, infections, and miscellaneous cases.Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia has caused a change in the general picture of dental and oral health services by an increase in patient number and case distribution.Keywords:COVID-19, Dental hospital, Emergency department, Health service, Pandemic
