Abstract

Orthodontic treatment is one way to deal with malocclusion problems to achieve good dental occlusion. As a result of the phenomenon of individual needs in overcoming malocclusion, many people come to the dentist's practice to install braces at different rates. This study aims to determine the most dominant factor in influencing the rates of braces fitting in general dental practices in Medan. This type of research is descriptive analytic with cross sectional approach. The study population was dentists who practised actively in Medan and performed fixed orthodontic treatment or braces. The sample size was 30 people with purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires. Data analysis used Spearman's Correlation test and multiple linear regression. The results showed that the mean of the type of braces, practice location, and type of malocclusion were 3.17 ± 0.950; 3.77 ± 0.504; and 9.13 ± 1.383, while the rate of braces had a mean of 1.37 ± 0.490. Spearman;s correlation statistical test can be stated that there is an influence of the type of brace (p=0.002; p≤0.05), practice location (p=0.039; p≤0.05), and type of malocclusion (p=0.005; p≤0.05) on the determination of significant dental practice brace tariffs in Medan Petisah District. The type of brace had a strong degree of influence, while the location of the practice and the type of malocclusion showed a moderate degree of influence. The type of brace is the most dominant factor in influencing the determination of tariffs. The conclusion of this study is that the better the type of brace, the more expensive the fitting rate.

Abstract

Dental implants are a superior treatment method for replacing missing teeth, offering the advantages of functional stability and the ability to preserve jawbone structure. This case review focuses on evaluating the various procedures, challenges, and clinical outcomes of dental implant interventions in patients with various complaints. Key steps in the cases analyzed included the collection of demographic and clinical data, a medical history evaluation, and an examination of the soft and hard tissue conditions. Additionally, periapical radiographs were used to evaluate the alveolar bone volume surrounding the implant area. Key findings highlight several effective techniques: the use of multi-unit abutments in the posterior jaw allows for angled implant placement to avoid important anatomical structures (such as the sinuses or mental foramen), thus eliminating the need for bone grafting and saving time and money. Prophylactic antibiotic therapy and a 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash were also found to be effective in preventing postoperative inflammation, even in diabetic patients, without impairing osteointegration. Other findings confirm that longer implants are more durable, and the success of bone grafting in repairing bone defects depends heavily on careful planning and operator skill. It is concluded that the clinical challenges of dental implants can be overcome through proper planning, advanced surgical techniques, and a thorough understanding of the patient's condition. ABSTRAKImplan gigi merupakan metode perawatan superior untuk menggantikan gigi yang hilang, menawarkan keunggulan stabilitas fungsional dan kemampuan mempertahankan struktur tulang rahang. Tinjauan artikel kasus ini berfokus pada evaluasi berbagai prosedur, tantangan, serta hasil klinis dari intervensi implan gigi pada pasien dengan beragam keluhan. Langkah-langkah penting dalam kasus yang dianalisis meliputi pengumpulan data demografi dan klinis, evaluasi riwayat kesehatan, serta pemeriksaan kondisi jaringan lunak dan keras. Selain itu, radiografi periapikal digunakan untuk mengevaluasi volume tulang alveolar di sekitar area implan. Temuan utama menyoroti beberapa teknik efektif: penggunaan abutment multi-unit di rahang posterior memungkinkan penempatan implan miring untuk menghindari struktur anatomi penting (seperti sinus atau foramen mental), sehingga meniadakan kebutuhan pencangkokan tulang serta menghemat waktu dan biaya. Ditemukan pula bahwa terapi antibiotik profilaksis dan obat kumur klorheksidin 0,12% efektif mencegah peradangan pasca-operasi, bahkan pada pasien diabetes, tanpa mengganggu osteointegrasi. Temuan lain mengkonfirmasi bahwa implan yang lebih panjang lebih tahan lama, dan keberhasilan bone graft untuk memperbaiki defek tulang sangat bergantung pada perencanaan matang serta keterampilan operator. Disimpulkan bahwa tantangan klinis implan gigi dapat diatasi melalui perencanaan yang tepat, teknik bedah canggih, dan pemahaman menyeluruh atas kondisi pasien.
