Abstract

Latar Belakang:  Enterococcus faecalis adalah salah satu penyebab penyakit dalam rongga mulut, seperti karies dan infeksi endodontilk. Resistensi terhadap antibiotik untuk mengontrol infeksi semakin meningkat, sehingga diperlukan bahan alternatif yang memiliki daya antibakteri yang berasal dari alam. Buah Naga Merah adalah jenis tumbuhan yang banyak tersedia di seluruh daerah di Indonesia. Kulit buah Naga Merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) diketahui memiliki beberapa kandungan zat aktif yang bersifat antibakteri, seperti terpenoid, alkaloid, dan flavonoid. Tujuan: penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui adanya daya antibakteri ekstrak kulit buah Naga Merah terhadap pertumbuhan Enterococcus faecalis. Konsentrasi Hambat Minimum (KHM) dan Konsentrasi Bunuh Minimum (KBM) juga ditentukan. Metode: jenis penelitian ini adalah eksperimental laboratories dengan post-test only control group design. Sampel penelitian adalah ekstrak kulit buah Naga Merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) dengan konsentrasi 100%, 50%, 25%, 12,5%, 6,25%,  3,12%, 1,56%, dan 0,78% serta kelompok kontrol positif dan kontrol negatif. Hasil: penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat daya antibakteri ekstrak kulit buah Naga Merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) terhadap pertumbuhan Enterococcus faecalis. Ekstrak kulit buah Naga Merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) dapat menghambat pertumbuhan koloni Enterococcus faecalis pada konsentrasi 1,56% (KHM), dan dapat membunuh Enterococcus faecalis pada konsentrasi 3,12% (KBM). Simpulan dan Saran: Ekstrak kulit buah Naga merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) mempunyai daya antibakteri terhadap pertumbuhan Enterococcus faecalis. Diharapkan adanya penelitian lebih lanjut untuk mencari konsentrasi yang akurat ekstrak kulit buah Naga merah (Hylocerus polyrhizus) terhadap pertumbuhan Enterococcus faecalis pada rentang konsentrasi 1,56% sampai 3,12%.

Abstract

Chewing apples is an alternative for reducing the plaque index on teeth, because apples contain vitamins and tannins which function to clean teeth and freshen the mouth to avoid gum disease caused by plaque on teeth. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of chewing apples on reducing the plaque index on the teeth of elementary school children. The type of research used is literature study. The literature study method is a series of activities related to methods of collecting library data, reading and taking notes, and managing research materials. The results of previous studies that have been reviewed from several journals or other references show the effectiveness before and after chewing apples on the plaque index on teeth. The release of saliva and assisted by the water content in apples is able to clean food residue stuck to the surface of the teeth. The conclusion is that chewing any type of apple can provide better effectiveness in reducing the plaque index on teeth. Chewing apples can be used as a natural ingredient to reduce the plaque index on teeth.

Abstract

Background: Orthodontic treatment will take longer to fail and the benefits of orthodontic treatment will be reduced. Plaque control is divided into two, mechanical plaque control and chemical plaque control. Chemical plaque control can be done by gargling with commercial mouthwash and natural ingredients such as pineapple. Pineapple fruit contains bromelain enzyme, tannin, flavonoids, steroids, fiber and water. Objective: To determine the effect of pineapple juice gargling on plaque accumulation in fixed orthodontic users. Methods: This research design is pre experimental with one group pretest posttest design. The research subjects were 30 samples. Plaque accumulation was measured using Ortho-Plaque Index with disclosing agent gel to detect the presence of plaque before and after treatment. Results: Data were analyzed using parametric hypothesis testing, namely Paired T-Test, which obtained a significance value of 0.000. Conclusion: There is a difference before and after gargling pineapple juice on plaque accumulation in users of fixed orthodontics.
