Abstract

Background: Palmerah Health Center, located in Palmerah Subdistrict, West Jakarta, with a population of 233,917 people in 2022, faces challenges in dealing with infectious diseases like Tuberculosis (TB). Pulmonary TB, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affects the lungs but can spread to other organs. Common symptoms of pulmonary TB include coughing with sputum for more than two weeks and shortness of breath. Objective: To understand the overview of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Palmerah area and the risk factors contributing to TB in the Palmerah region. Methodology: This study is an observational descriptive research with a cross-sectional design, using data from the online-based Tuberculosis Information System (SITB) at Palmerah Health Center and all its supporting health centers (Pustu) in Palmerah Subdistrict. Results: The highest number of pulmonary tuberculosis cases was found at Palmerah Health Center, followed by Palmerah Village Health Center. Pulmonary tuberculosis cases were more common in males. Conclusion: Pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Palmerah remain relatively high, with complex contributing factors. The TB case screening program conducted by the health centers shows good cross-sectoral support, but there are still barriers related to human resources and the community's knowledge and understanding of TB prevention.

Abstract

Introduction: Shade selection in aesthetic dental procedures remains a challenge in dentistry. This challenge arises due to the high complexity of natural tooth color. The use of a shade guide as a form of communication between dentists and dental technicians is highly subjective, leading to the emergence of digital methods that offer a higher level of accuracy and consistency. The purpose of this research is to assess the type, brand, and price as preference of shade matching tools for dentists in Jakarta’s dental sector. Methods: The survey was conducted as a descriptive observational study using cluster sampling through questionnaires and a review of shade matching product catalogs from 30 dental suppliers, 4 dental clinics, and 7 dental laboratories in Jakarta. Results: There is a variety in the price and availability of shade matching products sold by dental suppliers in Jakarta, with VITA branded products dominating the market, including VITAPAN Classical (25%), VITA Classical (15%), VITA 3D Master (12%), and Ivoclar Vivadent (12%). In both clinics and dental laboratories, all respondents reported using visual methods, with VITA Classical and VITA 3D Master being the most commonly used products. Conclusion: Shade matching products available from dental suppliers, as well as their use in clinics and laboratories in Jakarta, are predominantly based on visual methods, with VITA Classical and VITA 3D Master being the most preferred shade guides. Digital shade matching methods are rarely encountered, mainly due to product complexity, cost, distribution limitations, and lack of training.Ketersediaan, tipe, merk, dan harga sebagai preferensi alat pencocokan warna oleh dokter gigi di sektor kedokteran gigi jakarta: survei potong lintangPendahuluan: Pemilihan warna dalam prosedur estetika menjadi tantangan dalam kedokteran gigi. Tantangan ini muncul karena warna alami gigi memiliki kompleksitas yang tinggi. Penggunaan shade guide sebagai bentuk komunikasi antara dokter gigi maupun teknisi laboratorium bersifat sangat subjektif sehingga muncul metode digital yang menawarkan tingkat akurasi dan konsistensi yang lebih tinggi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi jenis, merek, dan harga sebagai preferensi alat pemilihan warna bagi dokter gigi di Jakarta. Metode: Survei dilakukan sebagai penelitian observasional deskriptif menggunakan sampling klaster dengan mengajukan pertanyaan serta penelahaan katalog produk shade matching pada 30 dental supplier, 4 klinik gigi, dan 7 laboratorium gigi yang ada di Jakarta. Hasil: Terdapat berbagai variasi dalam harga dan ketersediaan produk shade matching yang di jual dental supplier di Jakarta, dengan dominasi produk bermerek VITA, yaitu VITAPAN Classic (25%), VITA classical (15%), VITA 3D Master (12%) dan Ivoclar Vivadent (12%). Pada klinik dan laboratorium gigi didapatkan hasil bahwa seluruhnya menggunakan metode visual dengan produk yang paling banyak digunakan yaitu VITA Classical (27%) dan 3D Master (36%). Simpulan: Produk shade matching yang tersedia di dental supplier serta penggunaannya di klinik dan laboratorium Jakarta didominasi metode visual dengan VITA Classical dan 3D Master menjadi shade guide yang paling digemari. Metode pencocokan warna dengan metode digital jarang ditemui disebabkan kompleksitas produk, kendala harga, distribusi, dan kurangnya pelatihan.

Abstract

Introduction: Patient satisfaction is widely regarded as a primary indicator of service success rather than merely a supplementary measure. This principle also applies to dental healthcare services. Patient satisfaction reflects not only the outcomes of clinical treatment but also the quality of the relationship and communication between patients and healthcare professionals. Oral and dental health plays a vital role in supporting essential functions such as eating, speaking, and aesthetics, all of which significantly influence an individual’s overall quality of life. Therefore, efforts to improve service quality form the foundation for building patient trust and satisfaction in dental clinics. Service quality is assessed not only through the success of clinical procedures but also through non-clinical elements such as the friendliness of healthcare staff, the cleanliness of the clinic environment, the comfort of the facilities, and the accuracy and clarity of the information provided. This study aims to analyze the level of patient satisfaction with service quality at a dental clinic. The focus of the research is directed toward evaluating both clinical and non-clinical service components that may influence patients’ perceptions of overall service quality. Methods: This study involved 305 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire employing a 5-point Likert scale and analyzed using PLS-SEM with SmartPLS 4.0 software. Results:The findings indicate that scheduling and administration, clinic environment and facilities, as well as nurse quality and dentist competence, have a significant positive effect on recommendations and global satisfaction, with an R-square value of 0.673. Analysis of the measurement and structural models also confirms that all indicators used in this study are valid and reliable. Conclusion: Scheduling and administration, clinic environment and facilities, and nurse quality and dentist competence play a crucial role in enhancing patient recommendations and global satisfaction. Clinics are encouraged to strengthen non-technical service quality in accordance with the results of this study. These findings contribute to ongoing efforts to improve service quality within the primary healthcare sector.
