Abstract: Blunt trauma has high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. Traffic accidents, assaults or fights, falls, and accidents during sports are the leading cause of this trauma. The head and face areas are frequently the targets of blunt force attacks, and fatal cases are often attributed to trauma to these areas. The magnitude of the velocity and the surface area of the blunt object will produce different oral craniofacial fracture patterns. This study aimed to obtain the pattern of craniomaxillofacial fracture patterns caused by blunt trauma and their relationship to various forensic cases. Craniomaxilofacial fractures divided into cranial, maxilofacial, and mandibular fractures are series of injuries resulting from blunt trauma that may present alone or in a combination of the three of them. This is due to the proximity of the anatomy of these three types of bones. Fracture patterns can be present around the trauma, and can also present far from the trauma area since the trauma will be directly transmitted to areas with lowest weak point. By knowing a fracture pattern, various forensic problems can be solved. Keywords: blunt trauma; fracture pattern; craniomaxillofacial fracture; forensic cases Abstrak: Trauma tumpul memiliki tingkat morbiditas dan mortalitas yang cukup tinggi di dunia. Kecelakaan lalu lintas, perkelahian, Tindakan kekerasan, jatuh, serta kecelakaan saat berolahraga merupakan faktor-faktor utama penyebab jenis trauma ini. Area kepala dan wajah merupakan area yang paling sering menjadi target serangan benda tumpul, dan beberapa kasus fatal sering ditemukan akibat trauma pada daerah tersebut. Bentuk dan luas permukaan benda tumpul serta kecepatan hantaman akan menghasilkan pola fraktur kraniomaksilofasial yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan pola fraktur kraniomaksilofasial akibat trauma tumpul dan hubungannya pada berbagai kasus forensik. Fraktur kraniomaksilofasial yang terbagi atas fraktur kranial, maksilofasial, dan mandibula merupakan serangkaian cedera akibat trauma tumpul yang dapat hadir sendiri ataupun kombinasi ketiganya. Hal ini dikarenakan kedekatan anatomi dari ketiga jenis tulang ini. Pola fraktur dapat hadir di sekitar trauma, dan juga dapat hadir jauh dari area trauma. Hal ini dikarenakan dampak dari trauma akan langsung diteruskan ke daerah yang memiliki titik lemah paling rendah. Dengan mengetahui suatu pola fraktur maka berbagai masalah forensik dapat terpecahkan seperti merekonstruksi suatu kejadian, identifikasi jenis senjata, serta membantu proses pengadilan. Kata kunci: trauma tumpul; pola fraktur; fraktur kraniomaksilofasial; kasus forensik

Abstract: Tuberculosis (TB) is a long-lasting infectious disease that usually affects the lungs (pulmonary TB), but can also affect other organs and systems (extra-pulmonary TB). Oral TB is uncommon, particularly primary oral tuberculosis which predominantly affects young adults, and the tongue is the site most frequently affected. This case report aimed to discuss the manifestation of TB in the hard palate, focusing on observation from a cadaver and providing a thorough analysis of the oral clinical symptoms. We reported a case of unidentified 42-year-old female body that was found dead and brought to Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital for an autopsy. Poor oral hygiene was found. In the palate, there was bone defect on palatum durum regio teeth 21 22 near to the incisive foramen. Pink teeth was discovered in the anterior part of the lower jaw. Based on the autopsy report, the cause of death was tuberculosis. In conclusion, although tuberculosis of the palate is infrequent, it should be included as a potential cause of palatal perforation during diagnostic evaluations. Additionally, it is crucial to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the primary site of tuberculosis in cases involving palatal tuberculosis. Keywords: oral tuberculosis; palatal perforation; pink teeth phenomenon

Abstract: Various methods for estimating post-mortem (PMI) have been investigated such as rigor mortis, livor mortis, molecular, chemical, and forensic entomology (insect) methods. However, these methods have weaknesses, therefore researchers are looking for more accurate methods in determining the time of death of a person. Molecular methods are unreliable due to the degradation of DNA, RNA, and proteins in corpses over time. In different parts of the body, the amount of diversity of microbes will be different. The oral cavity is the most abundant microbial area among other parts of the body due to its continuous exposure to the respiratory and digestive systems. This area has great potential in estimating time intervals of death because of its ease of access and the types of microbiomes that predominate at any given time. Therefore, this narrative review was conducted to describe studies that used oral microbiota communities to estimate post-mortem intervals. Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes are the dominant microbial types found in corpses. Firmicutes became one of the dominant bacterial phyla in the early stages of decomposition. Actinobacteria were found to decrease as PMI increased. Studies have shown that the oral microbiome has excellent potential as a parameter to determine the post-mortem interval. However, further research is needed with more complex environmental conditions such as different humidity and temperature. In addition, further research requires more samples of human remains to obtain more valid results. Keywords: oral microbiome; post-mortem interval; human identification; forensic odontology

Abstract: Malocclusion can be solved with orthodontic treatment. In orthodontic treatment, there will be movements motivated by inflammatory responses and tissue responses in the form of resorption and apposition or bone remodeling. Some of the cells responsible for the process are fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. Grape seeds contain many active compounds that have high levels of antioxidants and phytoestrogens that can increase the division and proliferation of fibroblasts. This study aimed to find out whether grape seed ethanol extract was effective in increasing fibroblast cell count in orthodontic treatment. This was an experimental laboratory study conducted by attaching an elastomer separator and giving 4% ethanol extract of red grape seeds 0.2 ml in seven groups of guinea pigs that met the inclusion criteria and then were evaluated on days 1, 7, and 14. The Anova test showed a p value of < 0.001 (p<0.05) which meant that there was a statistically significant difference between the treatment groups and the test groups on days 7 and 14. The number of fibroblasts increased from day 1, 7 to day 14. The lowest number of fibroblasts was obtained in the control group (11.7±0.70) while the highest number of fibroblasts was found in the guinea pig group applied rubber separator and given 4% red grape seed extract as much as 0.2ml for 14 days (21.75±1.29). In conclusion, grape seed extract is effective in increasing the number of fibroblasts in orthodontic treatment and is most effective on day 14. Keywords: grape seed; fibroblasts; malocclusion; orthodontic treatment Abstrak: Masalah maloklusi dapat diselesaikan dengan melakukan perawatan ortodonti.

Abstract: Silver ion water has been known as an effective material for inhibiting and killing pathogenic bacteria. However, there are still few studies on silver ion water, especially those related to oral pH in dentistry. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of silver ion water against Streptococcus mutans in decreasing the environmental pH. This was an experimental and laboratory study with a control group post-test only design, using Streptococcus mutans stereotype C strain UA 159 incubated in brain hearth infusion broth (BHIB). Samples were divided into eight groups with several concentrations of silver ion water (2.5 ppm, 5 ppm, 7.5 ppm,10 ppm, 12,5 ppm, 15 ppm) and two control groups (silver ion water 0 ppm and aquadest). All groups were incubated for 24 hours in 37oC, and then their pHs were measured with a pH meter. The normality test showed a p-value of >0.05, meaning that the data were normally distributed. The Mann-Whitney test showed a p-value of <0.05, meaning that there was a difference in each group. Significant increases of pH were found in silver ion water of 12.5 ppm (mean pH 5.670) dan 15 ppm (mean pH 6.772). In conclusion, silver ion water of 12.5 ppm and 15 ppm can effectively inhibit the decrease in pH caused by the metabolism of Streptococcus mutans. Keywords: silver ion water; Streptococcus mutans; pH Abstrak: Air ion perak telah dikenal efektif untuk menghambat dan membunuh bakteri patogen, namun penelitian tentang air ion perak masih sangat terbatas, terutama yang berhubungan dengan pH rongga mulut di bidang kedokteran gigi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas air ion perak menghambat Streptococcus mutans dalam menurunkan pH. Jenis penelitian ialah eksperimental laboratorik dengan group control post-test only design, menggunakan Streptococcus mutans stereotype C rantai UA 159 yang diinkubasi di dalam media brain hearth infusion broth (BHIB). Sampel dibagi dalam delapan kelompok, masing-masing diberi air ion perak sebanyak 2,5 ppm, 5 ppm, 7,5 ppm, 10 ppm, 12,5 ppm, 15 ppm, dan dua kelompok kontrol (air ion perak 0 ppm dan akuades). Seluruh kelompok perlakuan dan kontrol diinkubasi selama 24 jam dengan suhu 37oC, kemudian pH-nya diukur menggunakan pH meter. Uji normalitas menunjukkan p<0,05 yang berarti data berdistribusi normal. Uji Mann Whitney menunjukkan p<0,05 yang berarti terdapat perbedaan bermakna antar kelompok perlakuan. Efek peningkatan derajat keasaman (pH) yang bermakna terlihat pada pemberian air ion perak sebanyak 12,5 ppm (rerata pH 5,670) dan 15 ppm (rerata pH 6,772). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah air ion perak dengan konsentrasi 12,5 ppm dan 15 ppm efektif menghambat penurunan pH yang disebabkan oleh metabolism Streptococcus mutans. Kata kunci: air ion perak; Streptococcus mutans; pH
