Abstract

Every year, the fields of medicine and dentistry in Indonesia require more dental skills to provide excellent service and improve the quality of care. Oral health in children often shows suboptimal conditions, with a lot of plaque and other deposits on their teeth. According to the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI), half of the population over 3 years old complains about dental problems, with South Sulawesi having the second-highest rate at 68.4%. Of the 56.9% of people experiencing dental problems, only 11.2% visit a dentist. Between the ages of 8 and 12, dental changes require more intensive care, with a child’s motivation and support from their environment influencing their oral hygiene. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the frequency of dental visits and the oral health status of elementary school children in the working area of Mamajang Health Center, Makassar City. It was an analytical observational study with a sample of 120 elementary school students in the Mamajang Health Center area. Data were collected through questionnaires and intraoral examinations using the OHI-S index. Of the students, 69.2% had low dental visit frequency, and 31.7% had good oral hygiene status. No significant relationship was found between the frequency of dental visits and oral hygiene status (P-Value > 0.05). The frequency of dental visits does not significantly affect the oral hygiene status of elementary school students.

Abstract

Tooth extraction is a procedure to remove a tooth from its alveolar bone socket. The causes for tooth extraction include caries, periodontitis, fractures, impacted teeth, the need for orthodontic treatment, and persistent primary teeth. Post-extraction bleeding is the most common complication that occurs. Hemostasis is a mechanism to stop bleeding from blood vessels to prevent excessive blood loss when an injury occurs, ensuring that blood continues to flow smoothly. In stopping bleeding, there are three processes involved: vasoconstriction (the narrowing of blood vessels), platelet activity, and the activity of blood clotting factors. Bleeding time is the time interval from when blood exits the blood vessel until the bleeding stops. The normal range for bleeding time is 1 to 3 minutes. Balakacida leaves contain active compounds including alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, and phenolics. To determine the effect of Balakacida leaf extract (Chromolaena odorata) as a hemostatic agent following tooth extraction in Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). This study uses an experimental method with a Post-Test Only Control Group Design. The samples used in this research are male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus), aged 2–3 months, weighing between 200–250 grams. The research data were processed and analyzed using the One-Way ANOVA test. The results showed that treatments at concentrations of 10%, 20%, and 30% were able to significantly accelerate bleeding time compared to the control group. The administration of Balakacida leaf extract is effective as a hemostatic agent following tooth extraction in Wistar rats.
