Abstract

Background: Oral health has not received sufficient attention from society. Oral hygiene is often neglected, and proper toothbrushing has not yet become a habit. This case study aimed to provide dental health education to middle-aged patients to improve their oral health status. Case: A 57-year-old female patient complains of painful mouth sores on the lower lips, easily bleeding gums, and unpleasant breath. The patient had poor oral hygiene. Case Treatment: The recurrent minor aphthous stomatitis, can be treated with Triamcinolone acetonide 0.1%. The condition of easily bleeding gums and bad breath are managed by performing scaling and root planning on the patient. However, this patient needs to be educated to maintain her oral health. Discussion: Providing dental health education is a crucial aspect to offer patients, alongside addressing their dental concerns. Dental health education was delivered using direct persuasive communication techniques on days 1, 7, and 14, coinciding with treatment and follow-up appointments. Conclusion: The chief complaint of the patient and several other complaints have been addressed successfully. Dental health education for middle-aged patients has proven effective in addressing poor oral hygiene conditions.

A total of 1806 studies were potentially eligible and identified, finally, 10 studies were included for quality assessment 5-10 PRISMA flow chart of the literature selection process. After duplicates were removed and relevant studies were selected based on title and abstract, 43 full-text articles were retrieved and evaluated for eligibility. Of these, 24 articles were excluded based on the exclusion criteria, the remaining 10 studies investigated the relationship between dental health status and risk factors. The country of this study was Indonesia. The study subjects varied, with the age of the sample ranging from 10 years to 65 years. Conclusion: Most oral health conditions are largely preventable and treatable at an early stage. Oral diseases are caused by various modifiable risk factors common to many non-communicable diseases (NCDs). It is important to understand the etiological factors and pathogenesis of each dental health status to recognize and understand the associated risk factors. Periodontal disease, dental caries, dental erosion, fluorosis and oral cancer have multifactorial risk factors, effective disease management requires a clear understanding of all associated risk factors, almost all risk factors are significant to dental health status.

Abstract

Introduction: Smile design requires harmony between the teeth and the surrounding soft tissue. In the case of anterior veneer treatment preparation, in patient with midline diastema and hyperpigmentation of gingiva should be adequately assessed. One visit treatment for periodontal surgeries is more beneficial for the patients and operator. In this case report, we reported a single visit treatment of frenectomy and gingival depigmentation to achieve more aesthetically acceptable patient prior to veneer procedure. Case: A 28-year-old female patient came to the Periodontics clinic on referral from the Prosthodontics clinic with chief complaint of gapped upper front teeth and brownish upper front tooth gums. Superior labial frenulum attachment was located on the interdental papilla which extended palatally, causing a central diastema and interfering with the veneer plan. Case Treatment: Gingival depigmentation by scraping technique using scalpel no. 15C and frenectomy by parallel technique using scalpel no. 11 to make two parallel incisions on the lateral side of the frenulum in one visit. Discussions: Periodontal surgery cases that can be performed simultaneously are those in the same region with the advantage that is effectiveness of time and trauma incurred as well as cost efficiency. Dark uneven gingiva can be treated with gingival depigmentation and frenectomy is a procedure that removes the frenulum completely including its attachment to the bone. Conclusion and Suggestions: Gingival depigmentation with scraping technique and frenectomy with parallel technique provide good treatment results and can be performed together in a single visit to address patients' aesthetic demands regarding gingival pigmentation and support central diastema correction through veneer treatment in collaboration with prosthodontics.

Abstract

Introduction : Midline Diastema are a main aesthetic concern for patients, due to its location in anterior teeth and its visibility during smiling. One of the main causes for a midline diastema is an aberrant frenum position, causing the gap between the anterior teeth. In order to address the problem a frenectomy was performed, followed by the application of orthodontic appliances. Case : Patient was referred from the Orthodontic Department of Hasanuddin Dental Hospital due to relapsing Midline Diastema. Patient complained of an non-aesthetic smile due to the gap in the anterior tooth. Class IV Frenal Attachment. Mucogingival Deformities and Conditions Arounds Teeth (Aberrant Frenum/Muscle Position). Case Treatment : Patient showed full healing in 1 month and full diastema closure using Removable Orthodontic Appliances in 6 months. Discussion : Frenectomy is done  to remove the aberrant attachment and removing the frenal position that blocked in the midline area, thus removing the cause of diastema. Full closure is achieved through orthodontic appliance. Conclusion : Combination of Frenectomy and Orthodontic Treatment shows a high effectivity in treating Midline Diastema.

Abstract

Introduction: The frenulum is a fold of mucous membranes that attaches the lips to the alveolar mucosa, gingiva, and underlying periosteum. The high and large frenulum attachment between the maxillary incisors can cause aesthetic problems in orthodontic results. Therefore, surgical removal of the frenulum is necessary to prevent a recurrence, gingival recession, difficulty in oral hygiene, interference with labial movement, and esthetic or orthodontic requirements. History and Clinical Findings: A 20-year-old woman with fixed orthodontic wear one month ago was referred from the orthodontics department because there was a high and large frenulum attachment between the maxillary incisors. Clinical examination obtained diastema on teeth 11, 12, 13 and 21, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33 and 41, 42, 43, with Angle Class I occlusion. There were no abnormalities in the oral mucosa and the patient had no history of systemic disease. Case Management: Management of frenectomy using clamps and a scalpel with the two clamps technique method. Discussion: Frenectomy is the frenulum-cutting procedure with the aim of improving esthetics due to central diastema. A frenectomy is performed conventionally with a scalpel using a two-clamp technique to remove the muscle fibers that connect the orbicularis oris to the palatine papillae, with excision covering the interdental tissue, palatine papillae, and frenulum. Concussion: Closure of the diastema between the maxillary incisors with a prominent frenulum is more predictable with frenectomy and concomitant orthodontic treatment than with frenectomy alone.

Abstract

Introduction: The growing demand for aesthetic dentistry has increased the need to address the issue of the black triangle. This condition refers to the loss of the interproximal area leaving the gap in the gingival embrasure which eventually compromises the appearance of gingival harmony. Various treatment options have been explored to overcome the black triangle, from surgical to non-surgical approaches. Objective for this study is to compare the effectiveness between Connective Tissue Graft (CTG) and Hyaluronic Acid (HA) in black triangle management. Review: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA)-adapted literature searches were conducted from four online databases (Pubmed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Embase) published in English from 2018 to 2023. A total of 1103 studies were retrieved, and following systematic review, 7 articles were selected as the inclusion criteria. Five studies employed HA as the therapeutic approach, while CTG was utilized in only two studies. Both treatments showed improvements in clinical parameters, such as increasing papila interdental height (PIH) and decreasing black triangle height (BTH). All the improvements are statistically significant. The recent trend in black triangle management suggests a shift towards the adoption of HA due to its minimally invasive procedures and high predictability results. Three out of five studies included stated that HA injection decreases BTH to 1mm at 6-month follow-up. Conclusion: HA presents itself as a promising alternative to the CTG for filling the papila deficiency, though it does not apply to all cases. Long-term studies are needed to observe the general use of HA for black triangle treatment.

Abstract

Introduction. Vertical deficiency due to maxillary sinus pneumatization in the posterior maxilla is a challenge for clinicians in dental implant placement. Sinus floor augmentation is a treatment procedure to overcome the vertical deficiency problem. Various regenerative materials have been used and developed for sinus floor augmentation, one of them is periosteum-derived micrograft (PDM) which derived from autogenous periosteum. Periosteum has pluripotent cells and a good proliferation rate that is useful for bone regeneration and potential for sinus floor augmentation. This literature review was conducted with the aim of investigating the use of PDM in sinus floor augmentation. Review. Sinus floor augmentation aims to achieve adequate bone height in the posterior maxilla by raising the sinus membrane and placing regenerative material before dental implant placement. Periosteal-derived micrograft is periosteal tissue which cut into smaller pieces and processed for use with scaffolds to heal bone defects. Micrograft have been shown to induce scaffold revascularization, express Wingless/Integrated (WNT-16) and periostin (POSTN), mesenchymal stem cell marker, pro-angiogenic factor and β-catenin gene involved in osteogenic differentiation, osteoblast maturation, and overall bone regeneration. PDM has the advantage of producing faster bone regeneration and shows good clinical results in sinus floor augmentation. Conclusion. Periosteum-derived micrograft has a good potential so it can be applied in sinus floor augmentation.

Abstract

Introduction: Pericoronitis refers to an intraoral inflammation caused by an infection affecting the gum tissue surrounding a tooth that is either erupting or partially erupted. The gum tissue is known as operculum which entrapped food debris and hard to clean, causing inflammation. It frequently occurred in lower third molars although it can be happened with any erupting teeth. This case report was to discuss the comparison result of removing operculum between using conventional technique with scalpel and electrocautery. Case: A 22-year-old female patient visiting RSGM Prof Soedomo, Yogyakarta with a chief complaint of pain in the lower left and right back tooth for the past five months, interfering with her meals and causing discomfort. Extraoral examination showed no abnormalities and intraoral examination showed operculum covering the distal occlusal of tooth 38 and 48. Case Treatment: Operculectomy was performed at region 38 using scalpel and blade while at region 48 using electrocautery to eliminate pericoronitis. Discussion: The bleeding while excision in operculectomy with scalpel and blade was quite excessive and need an effort to control. In the other hand, bleeding was mild in operculectomy with electrocautery. There was no swelling in electrocautery surgery while mild swelling was found in conventional approach Conclusion: Therefore, the treatment results demonstrate that both technique showing good healing and removing any discomfort but electrocautery approach was painless compared with scalpel and blade approach. Operators should have to know the associated risk and management of post operative complications.

Abstract

Introduction. Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is a chronic immunological disorder that is inflammatory in form. Unlike skin lesions, oral lesions are more resistant to local and systemic therapy. The aim of this literature review is to explain alternative therapies in OLP cases using intralesional injection techniques. Literature Review. In general, OLP lesions in the oral cavity have no symptoms, but the atrophic-erosive form has mild symptoms such as discomfort and soreness. OLP therapy can generally be carried out with systemic or local therapy, however, OLP therapy is a long-term therapy that can be a challenge of the treatment, particularly in complex medical patients. Discussion. The use of corticosteroids in oral diseases is generally as anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and immunosuppressive. Various methods, such as topical and systemic corticosteroids, griseofulvin, topical retinoids, hyaluronic acid, tetracycline, and topical cyclosporine, have been used to reduce morbidity. From several previous studies, Triamcinolone acetonide injection is a corticosteroid commonly used in OLP therapy in varying doses. In general, Triamcinolone acetonide injection is given in a dose of 20mg/ml or 40mg/ml. Conclusion. Injectable corticosteroids, especially Triamcinolone acetonide, are an effective therapy as an OLP treatment that can minimize the side effects of long-term corticosteroid therapy.

Abstract

Introduction: Patients of growing age with dentoskeletal class II malocclusion are often found in the clinic, to avoid further severity it is recommended to use functional appliance in cases involving skeletal. Review: Functional appliances have been widely used since activators were introduced by Andersen, but the use of activators has many disadvantages such as the shape that blends between the maxilla and mandible making it difficult for patients to open their mouths, speak and eat, then the large shape makes patients uncomfortable and causes facial changes. Clark developed the twin block to answer the previous shortcomings, which is a simple and separate design between the mandible and maxilla causing patients to be more comfortable in speaking and eating so that it is comfortable to use for a long time. Twin block is a functional appliance used to reposition the mandible forward in cases of class II malocclusion with retrognathic mandible. Conclusion: This paper describes the design and use of twin block and its effectiveness in skeletal correction. In addition, its use was found to improve facial shape, reduce overjet and overbite, corrected molar relationships and alleviated patient complaints.
