Abstract

Abstract: The main transmission medium of Covid-19 is aerosol from nose and oral cavity when coughing, sneezing, and speaking. Due to the vast transmission of the virus, the Indonesian government has established various health protocols to reduce the impact of the disease. Until now, the high number of confirmed COVID-19 patients in Jakarta is suspected as a result of lack of knowledge and perception. This study was aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge, perception, and attitudes of COVID-19 transmission in dentistry in JABODETABEK Jakarta. This was an analytical and observational study with a cross-sectional design using online questionnaire containing 50 questions. This study was conducted on 572 subjects. The validity of the questionnaire was analyzed by using the Rasch model and the linear regression between variables and mediation analysis. The results obtained that the questionnaire showed a Cronbach alpha of 0.82 and item reliability of 1.00 with a separation of 29.97. Most subjects were in high category of knowledge (97.20%), perception (60.66%), and attitudes (93.88%). There was a relationship between knowledge and perception (p<0.001; 95%CI 0.357-0.925); perception and attitude (p<0.001; 95%CI 0.643-0.829); and the perception as a mediator between both variables. In conclusion, JABODETABEK community’s perception of COVID-19 transmission has an impact as mediator or influence people’s attitude in implementing their knowledge in dentistry.Keywords: knowledge; perception; attitude; COVID-19 Abstrak: SARS-CoV-2 merupakan tipe coronavirus baru yang dapat menimbulkan penyakit COVID-19.

Abstract

Abstract: Ideal tooth extraction is removal of complete tooth structure from the alveolar bone with minimal trauma and without causing any pain. It leaves a wound in the form of an open tooth socket. Efforts to reduce the problem of wound healing can be done inter alia by forming new tissue engineering that replaces the damaged tissue with collagen which is easily absorbed biologically and has good biocompatibility. One of the wound covering materials containing collagen is resorbable collagen plug (RCP). It serves to accelerate wound healing, control bleeding due to its intrinsic hemostatic property, and accelerate the wound healing process. This was a literature review study using databases namely PubMed, Embase, Wiley Online Library, and National Center for Biotechnology. The keywords were tooth extraction, wound healing, collagen, and resorbable collagen plug. The results showed that the RCP could accelerate wound healing because it contained collagen which had the ability to stabilize blood clotting and to protect wounds. In conclusion, the use of resorbable collagen plug can accelerate wound healing after tooth extraction due to its collagen content.Keywords:  dental extraction; wound healing process; resorbable collagen plug (RCP) Abstrak: Pencabutan gigi ideal adalah pengangkatan struktur gigi secara utuh dari tulang alveolar tanpa menimbulkan rasa sakit dengan trauma minimal. Tindakan pencabutan meninggalkan luka berupa soket gigi terbuka. Tujuan penyembuhan luka yaitu memperbaiki kerusakan jaringan dan fungsi organ. Upaya untuk mengurangi masalah penyembuhan luka dapat dilakukan, salah satunya dengan membentuk rekayasa jaringan baru yang menggantikan jaringan rusak yaitu dengan kolagen. Kolagen merupakan protein yang memiliki sifat mudah diserap secara biologis serta memiliki biokompatibilitas yang baik. Salah satu bahan penutup luka yang mengandung kolagen ialah resorbable collagen plug (RCP) yang berfungsi membantu mempercepat penyembuhan luka, mengontrol pendarahan oleh karena sifat hemostatik instrinsik, dan mempercepat proses penyembuhan luka. Penelitian ini merupakan suatu literatur review menggunakan database dari PubMed, Embase, Wiley Online Library, dan National Center for Biotechnology dengan kata kunci yang meliputi pencabutan gigi, penyembuhan luka, kolagen, Resorbable Collagen Plug. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa RCP dapat membantu mempercepat penyembuhan luka karena mengandung kolagen yang memiliki kemampuan untuk menstabilkan pembekuan darah dan dapat melindungi luka. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah penggunaan resorbable collagen plug dapat membantu mempercepat penyembuhan luka setelah pencabutan gigi oleh karena adanya kandungan kolagen.Kata kunci: pencabutan gigi; penyembuhan luka; resorbable collagen plug (RCP)

Abstract

Abstract: Full dental prosthesis rehabilitation on flat mandibular ridge has been a difficult case for clinicians for a long time. A huge resorption of mandibular ridge results in inadequate retention, and tounge muscle pressure, as well as lip and cheek muscles, causing a decrease in denture’s stability and retention. Neutral zone is a potential area or position where lips and cheek on one side, and tounge on the other side have balance pressure. We reported a 60-year-old male patient with chief complaints of difficulty in mastication, and loose upper and lower dentures. He also complained of denture moving during swallowing and speaking. In case management, the aim was to acquire optimum stability of the denture and arrangement of the mandibular teeth in full dental prosthesis guided by using the neutral zone. Preliminary impression was done by using alginate, then, horizontal and vertical jaw relation was recorded by using bite rim. Suction method impression technique was used to acquire functional impression. Lower denture teeth arrangement adapted the result of neutral zone impression. Acrylic denture was being contoured to adjust the natural anatomy of the oral cavity. In conclusion, the patient got a new full denture with maximum retention and stability while speaking as well as masticating. This article discussed about making of full dental prosthesis with pressure point on neutral zone impression technique on flat mandibular ridge caused by huge resorption.Keywords: flat mandibular ridge; denture stability; neutral zone; impression technique

Abstract

Abstract: In practice, dentists often find patients with very sensitive oral cavity, which results in patients being unable to tolerate the entry of foreign objects into the oral cavity. Gag reflex can be triggered by any kind of dental procedure both before and after treatment due to various causes. In addition, it can be said that the ability and patience of a dentis are important requirements to be able to control the gag reflex and create a comfortable treatment. This paper is a narrative review consisting of a collection of data on the gag reflex and various treatment methods recorded in the literature. This includes various modifications that dentists and prosthodontists can make during the treatment process such as molding, fabricating, and fitting dentures to treat the patient's gag reflex problem. Although there is no definite solution for the successful management of patients with gag reflex problem, dentists can use various methods to control the gag reflex at their discretion, so that dental treatment can be carried out comfortably.Keywords: gag reflex; prosthodontics; comfortable dental treatment Abstrak: Dalam praktiknya, sering kali dokter gigi menemukan pasien dengan rongga mulut  yang sangat sensitif, yang berakibat pasien tidak dapat mentoleransi masuknya benda asing ke dalam rongga mulut. Refleks muntah dapat dipicu oleh segala jenis prosedur gigi baik sebelum dan sesudah perawatan karena berbagai penyebab. Selain itu, dapat dikatakan bahwa kemampuan dan kesabaran dokter gigi merupakan syarat-syarat penting untuk dapat mengendalikan refleks muntah dan menciptakan perawatan yang nyaman. Studi ini merupakan tinjauan naratif yang terdiri dari kumpulan data mengenai refleks muntah dan berbagai metode penanganannya yang tercatat dalam bentuk literatur. Hal ini mencakup berbagai macam modifikasi yang dapat dilakukan oleh dokter gigi maupun prostodontis selama proses perawatan seperti pencetakan, pembuatan dan pemasangan gigi palsu untuk menangani masalah refleks muntah pasien. Meskipun tidak ada solusi yang pasti untuk keberhasilan manajemen pasien dengan masalah refleks muntah, dokter gigi dapat meng-gunakan berbagai macam metode untuk mengontrol refleks muntah sesuai pertimbangannya sendiri sehingga perawatan gigi dapat dilakukan dengan nyaman.Kata kunci: refleks muntah; kedokteran gigi; prostodonti; perawatan gigi yang nyaman
