Abstract

Introduction: White oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a natural ingredient with diverse benefits, including its ability to heal traumatic ulcers. In the healing process, TNF-α acts as an inflammatory mediator that promotes epithelial growth and neovascularization. Material and Methods: This study was an in vivo laboratory experimental study using a post-test only control group approach, involving 32 samples randomly divided into eight treatment groups (n=4) based on variations in gel concentration (50%, 100%, negative control, and positive control) and observation time (days 3 and 7). TNF-α expression measurements were performed using an ELISA kit. Research data were analysed using the parametric One-Way ANOVA test, the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests, followed by the Tukey Post-Hoc test. Results and Discussions: Statistical analysis results showed a p-value of 0.000 <0.05 between treatment groups. Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-α) expression decreased significantly in the groups given 50% and 100% white oyster mushroom extract gel, with the lowest average found at a concentration of 50% on both days 3 and 7, namely 231.33 and 195.33, thus demonstrating more optimal effectiveness at that concentration. Conclusion: White oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) extract gel at a concentration of 50% was more effective than a concentration of 100% in reducing TNF-α expression in the healing of traumatic ulcers in male wistar rats. Further research with a concentration range of 50-100% and other immunological parameters is required for further confirmation.

Abstract

Introduction: Periodontitis is an infectious disease that damages periodontal tissues and may lead to tooth loss. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is one of the main pathogenic bacteria associated with periodontitis. Peperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth contains flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins with antibacterial potential. This study evaluated its effectiveness against A. actinomycetemcomitans and determined its Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC). Materials and Methods: This laboratory experimental study used a post-test-only control group design. Antibacterial testing was performed using the serial dilution method in eight groups: extract concentrations of 3.125%, 6.25%, 12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 100%, 0.2% chlorhexidine as the positive control, and distilled water as the negative control. MIC was assessed by bacterial growth on Mueller–Hinton Agar, while MBC was determined by colony counts (CFU/mL). Data were analyzed using Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney tests. Results: Peperomia pellucida extract showed antibacterial activity against A. actinomycetemcomitans. MIC was achieved at 6.25% concentration with 92.5% inhibition, while MBC was achieved at 12.5% concentration with 100% bactericidal effect. Conclusion: Peperomia pellucida extract effectively inhibited and killed A. actinomycetemcomitans, with greater antibacterial activity at higher concentrations.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental impression materials are broadly classified into elastic and non-elastic types. One of the most commonly used elastic impression materials is irreversible hydrocolloid, which possesses several important properties, including ease of manipulation, patient comfort during intraoral application, the ability to reproduce fine surface details accurately, and hydrophilicity that facilitates adaptation to moist oral tissues. However, in clinical practice, impression procedures cannot always be carried out immediately in accordance with established protocols due to various factors. As a result, dimensional changes may occur if the impressions are not stored properly. These changes are primarily attributed to the inherent properties of irreversible hydrocolloid, namely imbibition (water absorption) and syneresis (water loss). One strategy to enhance the efficiency of irreversible hydrocolloid utilization is the incorporation of corn starch (Zea mays), which contains amylose and amylopectin. These components are capable of absorbing water and swelling, thereby potentially minimizing dimensional instability in diagnostic models derived from irreversible hydrocolloid impressions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding corn starch (Zea mays) to irreversible hydrocolloid impression material on the dimensional stability of diagnostic models. Materials and Methods: This study employed a laboratory experimental design using a post-test only control group design, divided into three groups. Group I served as the control group, in which the samples were not given any addition of corn starch. Group II was the treatment group with the addition of corn starch and a resting time of 5 minutes. Group III was the treatment group with the addition of corn starch and a resting time of 10 minutes. The data obtained were then analyzed using ANOVA to determine differences among the groups. Results and Discussions: The results of the study and data analysis demonstrated that there was no statistically significant difference between the control group and the groups with the addition of corn starch in terms of dimensional stability changes of the alginate impression material. Incorporating starch in an optimal proportion can enhance the strength and hardness of the irreversible hydrocolloid gel. Conclusion: The addition of corn starch to irreversible hydrocolloid impressions has been shown to affect dimensional stability after storage for 5 and 10 minutes. Corn starch helps maintain the dimensional stability of the impressions at both time intervals, thereby improving the precision and accuracy of the resulting casts.

Abstract

Introduction: A midline diastema is a gap between the maxillary central incisors that can lead to aesthetic, psychological, and social issues. Its etiology is multifactorial, with one contributing factor being a high-attachment superior labial frenulum, which may cause relapse following orthodontic treatment. Case: A 22-year-old female patient presented with the chief complaint of a 1.5 mm gap between her upper front teeth, which significantly disturbed her appearance. The patient also had a habit of biting pencils and a history of relapses after previous orthodontic treatment. Case Management: The patient was treated with removable orthodontic appliances consisting of active maxillary and mandibular plates. The active components included finger springs, a labial arch, and continuous springs, which were gradually activated during each follow-up visit. At the eighth follow-up visit, a frenectomy was performed at the Department of Periodontics due to the high attachment of the superior labial frenulum, which posed a potential risk for relapse. Removable orthodontic appliances have been reported to be effective in closing mild to moderate midline diastema, particularly through the tipping movement of anterior teeth. Patient compliance, controlled activation, and appropriate appliance design are critical determinants of success. Frenectomy also contributes to the stability of the outcome by eliminating soft tissue tension that could potentially reopen the diastema gap. Conclusion: The combination of removable orthodontic treatment, frenectomy, and a retention phase with a retainer can yield optimal results in midline diastema cases. Comprehensive evaluation of etiological factors, patient adherence, and long-term monitoring are strongly recommended to prevent relapses.

Abstract

Introduction: Pulp necrosis is a pathological condition of the dental pulp that requires root canal treatment. Post-endodontic restoration is required to support the success of the root canal treatment, restore dental function, and improve aesthetics. In this case, the final restoration employed was a direct composite onlay with fiber reinforcement. Case: A 30-year-old female patient presented to the Dental Hospital of Soelastri, Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta (UMS), with a chief complaint of a carious tooth on the upper right jaw, which had been present for the past year. The diagnosis was established based on subjective, objective, and supplementary examinations. The diagnosis was pulp necrosis with apical periodontitis in tooth 14. Case Management: The patient underwent root canal treatment in accordance with the principles of the endodontic triad. Subsequently, the final restoration was placed as a direct composite onlay with fiber reinforcement. Discussion: A direct composite onlay with fiber reinforcement is a restoration that can be utilized following root canal treatment. The advantages of this restoration include its resistance to masticatory forces, favorable aesthetics, and color resemblance to dentin. Conclusion and Suggestions: Restoration after root canal treatment is crucial to ensure the success of the endodontic therapy. The use of a direct composite onlay with fiber reinforcement represents one of the options for the final restoration following root canal treatment.

Abstract

Introduction: Teeth can be used for age estimation of the victim. Several atlases can be used to estimate age through teeth, such as the London Atlas(AL) and The Atlas of Dental Development in the Indonesian Population(ADDIP). The Atlas of Dental Development in the Indonesian Population (ADDIP) is a modification of the London atlas (AL), made by looking at the process of dental development of children in Indonesia from the age of 5 years to 23 years. Therefore, this study aims to compare the accuracy of child age estimation using the London Atlas (AL) and the Atlas of Dental Development in the Indonesian Population (ADDIP). Material and Methods: This study used 128 panoramic radiographs from pediatric patients aged 5 years to 16 years at RSGMP Nala Husada Surabaya from February to May 2025. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software for different tests, including a Wilcoxon test. Results and Discussions: Using the London Atlas (AL) method, the average difference between chronological age and dental age was found to be between -0.13 and -1.51 years. Meanwhile, according to ADDIP, the average difference between chronological age and dental age was found to be between -0.03 and -1.31 years. Conclusion: ADDIP shows a smaller difference between chronological age and dental age than the AL, suggesting that ADDIP demonstrated higher accuracy than AL for estimating age in Indonesian children.

Abstract

Introduction: Forensic Odontology plays a crucial role in forensic investigations, including determining the postmortem interval (PMI). Rigor mortis is one of the early signs of death, often presenting challenges during oral examinations. Dental autopsy is a procedure that can address these challenges, enabling a thorough examination of the teeth even in the presence of rigor mortis. Review: Rigor mortis represents a major obstacle in dental autopsy procedures. Muscle stiffness hampers mouth opening and access to the oral cavity. Various techniques can be employed to perform dental autopsies in cases of rigor mortis, such as the use of mouth gags, trismus screws, and myotomy. Jaw resection techniques may also be employed to provide better access to dental structures. Conclusion: Rigor mortis significantly limits oral cavity access during dental autopsy procedures. Characterized by muscle stiffness, presenting a challenge during dental autopsy examination of the oral cavity.

Abstract

Introduction: Teeth are used as a primary method of forensic identification due to their robust nature. Although resistant to various environmental destruction, prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures may alter the tissue, rendering it fragile and prone to fragmentation. This poses a challenge for forensic odontologists in postmortem identification, as postmortem dental analysis often requires teeth to be intact for further investigation beyond the crime scene. This article aims to examine and discuss methods of teeth stabilization following exposure to high temperatures, focusing on materials selection and key properties for selecting the optimum stabilizing agents to preserve/reinforce the heat-affected teeth. Review: The literature review was performed using PubMed and ScienceDirect in accordance with the PRISMA workflow, including only full papers and original research and/or case reports. Various natural and synthetic solutions were effective for teeth stabilization, with spraying as the most effective method for maximum surface coverage. Aside from ease of use, material availability, rapid curing time, and non-volatility, the long-term durability and chemical stability are crucial factors in selecting the appropriate stabilizing agent to store heat-affected teeth for archiving. Conclusion: In conjunction with proper teeth stabilization methods, forensic odontologists must also consider proper storage of evidence, planning a safe route from the crime scene to the mortuary, and evidence storage time for possible future analysis to ensure the best evidence preservation.

Abstract

Introduction: Taurodontism is a dental anomaly characterized by an elongated pulp chamber and apically displaced furcation, usually detected radiographically. Early identification is important because it may affect treatment planning. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of taurodontism on panoramic radiographs at Saraswati Dental Hospital. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study included all panoramic radiographs taken from September 2021 to September 2024. Radiographs with good diagnostic quality, patients aged ≥12 years, and clearly visible molars were included. Crown body length (CB) and root length (R) were measured using Cliniview® based on Shaw’s method to calculate the CB/R ratio and classify taurodontism. Measurements were performed independently by three oral and maxillofacial radiologists. Data were analyzed descriptively. Results and Discussion: Of 3,289 panoramic radiographs, 106 taurodontism cases were identified (3.22%). Most cases occurred in adolescents aged 12–25 years (75.47%) and in the mandible (81.14%). Among 220 affected teeth, mandibular second molars were most frequently involved (64.55%). Hypotaurodontism was the most common subtype (66.37%). Conclusion: Taurodontism prevalence was 3.22%, predominantly affecting adolescents, the mandible, and the hypotaurodontism subtype. Early radiographic detection is important for effective dental management.

Abstract

Introduction: Surface roughness is an important property of denture base materials because it affects hygiene, comfort, and durability. Rough surfaces can retain debris and microorganisms, increasing the risk of halitosis and mucosal irritation. Tuak aren (Arenga pinnata palm wine), a traditional fermented beverage, contains alcohol and has an acidic pH that may alter denture base materials. This study evaluated the effect of tuak aren on the surface roughness of acrylic and thermoplastic nylon denture bases. Materials and Methods: Four groups were studied: acrylic plates (A1) and thermoplastic nylon plates (A2) immersed in distilled water as controls, and acrylic plates (B1) and thermoplastic nylon plates (B2) immersed in tuak aren as treatments. After 11 days of immersion, surface morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and surface roughness was measured using a profilometer. Results: Descriptive analysis showed that A1 had the lowest surface roughness, while B2 had the highest. One-way ANOVA demonstrated significant differences among groups. LSD post hoc analysis revealed significant differences between B2 and groups A1, A2, and B1. SEM observations at 500× magnification showed microscopic surface changes after immersion in tuak aren. Profilometer measurements were consistent with SEM findings. Conclusion: Exposure to tuak aren increased the surface roughness of denture base materials, with the greatest effect observed in thermoplastic nylon plates.
