Abstract

Heat-cured acrylic resin is the most common material used for denture bases; however, it has limitations such as susceptibility to fluid absorption and abrasion, which can increase surface roughness. This roughness has the potential to become a site for the colonisation of microorganisms such as Candida albicans. Sodium hypochlorite is frequently used as a denture disinfectant, but its corrosive properties can exacerbate surface roughness. Therefore, alternative natural materials such as pomegranate (both peel and pulp) extracts have become a focus of research. Aim: This study aimed to determine the comparative effects of immersion in 75% pomegranate peel extract and 75% pomegranate pulp extract versus sodium hypochlorite on the surface roughness of heat-cured acrylic resin. Method: This study employed a pre- and post-test control group experimental laboratory design, with three treatment groups of nine samples each. Acrylic resin samples were immersed for 7 days and 14.5 hours in the treatment solutions, and their surface roughness was measured using a surface roughness tester before and after immersion. Data analysis was performed using the Shapiro-Wilk test, One-Way ANOVA, and Post Hoc Tukey test. Results: This study found no significant difference between the treatment groups regarding the surface roughness of heat-cured acrylic resin (p = 0.718). However, only the sodium hypochlorite group showed a significant change in surface roughness before and after immersion (p = 0.003), whereas the pomegranate peel and pulp extract groups did not show significant changes (p = 0.099 and p = 0.065, respectively). Conclusion: 75% pomegranate peel and pulp extracts did not cause significant changes to the surface roughness of heat-cured acrylic resin and may represent safer natural alternatives to sodium hypochlorite as denture soaking solutions.

Abstract

Tooth loss affects quality of life, chewing function, and facial aesthetics. Dental implants offer a more stable and comfortable solution compared to other treatments, but their success depends on the alveolar process and osseointegration. Bone insufficiency can lead to implant failure, making bone augmentation necessary. This study reviews case reports on implant placement with bone augmentation using titanium mesh. The first case involves a 37-year-old patient who had an accident, where titanium mesh was used to support bone growth after tooth extraction and bone grafting. The results showed good bone development. The second case discusses the placement of 46 implants with a 3.3 mm diameter in a 63-year-old woman, with CBCT evaluation to assess bone thickness. Monitoring showed optimal osseointegration and good tissue healing. This success was achieved through careful planning, appropriate augmentation techniques, and strict postoperative evaluation and monitoring. In conclusion, the success of dental implant placement depends on an individualized approach, technology-based planning such as CBCT, and the right augmentation techniques. With an optimal strategy, implant stability, as well as functional and aesthetic outcomes, can be achieved, providing long-term benefits for patients. ABSTRAKKehilangan gigi berdampak pada kualitas hidup, fungsi mengunyah, dan estetika wajah. Implan gigi menawarkan solusi yang lebih stabil dan nyaman dibandingkan perawatan lain, tetapi keberhasilannya bergantung pada proses alveolar dan osseointegrasi. Insufisiensi tulang dapat menyebabkan kegagalan implan, sehingga augmentasi tulang diperlukan. Studi ini meninjau laporan kasus tentang pemasangan implan dengan augmentasi tulang menggunakan titanium mesh. Kasus pertama melibatkan pasien 37 tahun yang mengalami kecelakaan, di mana titanium mesh digunakan untuk mendukung pertumbuhan tulang setelah pencabutan gigi dan cangkok tulang. Hasil menunjukkan perkembangan tulang yang baik. Kasus kedua membahas pemasangan 46 implan berdiameter 3,3 mm pada wanita 63 tahun, dengan evaluasi CBCT untuk menilai ketebalan tulang. Pemantauan menunjukkan osseointegrasi yang optimal dan penyembuhan jaringan yang baik. Keberhasilan ini dicapai melalui perencanaan matang, teknik augmentasi yang sesuai, serta evaluasi dan pemantauan pascaoperasi yang ketat. Kesimpulannya, keberhasilan pemasangan implan gigi bergantung pada pendekatan individual, perencanaan berbasis teknologi seperti CBCT, serta teknik augmentasi yang tepat. Dengan strategi yang optimal, stabilitas implan serta hasil fungsional dan estetis dapat tercapai, memberikan manfaat jangka panjang bagi pasien.
