Abstract

Introduction: Dental and oral diseases remain major global health problems. Although propolis has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, evidence regarding its use as a prolonged oral drug delivery system remains limited. No systematic review has specifically evaluated propolis hard candy as an oral delivery platform. This review aimed to synthesize evidence on propolis hard candy and related prolonged oral delivery systems for dental and oral health. Review: This systematic review followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines. PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched for studies published from January 2014 to March 2025. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials, clinical studies, in vivo animal studies, and in vitro experiments evaluating propolis or related oral delivery systems. Two reviewers independently performed study selection, data extraction, and quality assessment using Cochrane RoB 2, the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale, and a modified checklist. Of 337 records, 10 studies met the eligibility criteria. In vitro studies demonstrated inhibition of Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation and Candida albicans growth, while solid oral delivery systems provided prolonged retention and sustained release. Clinical and in vivo studies indicated improved gingival health and anti-inflammatory effects, although evidence was limited by moderate risk of bias, small samples, and short follow-up. Conclusion: Propolis hard candy shows promise as an adjunctive oral drug delivery platform, but direct clinical evidence remains insufficient. Well-designed, double-blind randomized controlled trials using standardized formulations are needed to establish its efficacy, safety, and clinical advantages.

Abstract

Introduction: Gingivitis, a reversible inflammatory condition, is the second most prevalent oral health issue in children, after dental caries. A national health survey in 2018 revealed a high prevalence of gingivitis among Indonesian children, with 5.8% among 5-year-old and 14.3% among 12-year-old children. Childhood is a critical period for the development of oral health behaviors, which are influenced by genetic, familial, and environmental factors. Research highlights the intergenerational transmission of gingivitis, linking parental oral health to child’s outcomes. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the occurrence of gingivitis among parents and their 3--14-year-old children in Indonesia. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study using secondary data from the 2018 Riskesdas. The data were collected by the Republic of Indonesia Ministry of Health's Research and Development in March 2018. The subject criteria were 3--14-year-old children and their biological parents who had clinical data on gingivitis status and interviews for behavioral variables. Data analysis was performed using SPSS ver.27 for univariate and bivariate analyses. Results and Discussion: The relationship between the occurrence of gingivitis in parents and children was significant (p< .001). The parental risk factors included parents’ perceptions of oral health problems. Parents’ habits were also significantly related to their children’s habits. Conclusion: The significant relationship between the occurrence of gingivitis among parents and children, and the significant role of parents in shaping their children’s oral health behaviors were in accordance with the concept of the intergenerational life course.

Abstract

Introduction: Self-curing resin acrylic (SC-AR) is widely used for biomedical appliances, particularly prostheses, due to its rapid manipulation and suitability for single-visit fabrication. However, its relatively low mechanical strength may increase fracture susceptibility. This study evaluated the effect of incorporating 1 wt% polyacrylonitrile polymethyl methacrylate electrospinning nanofibers (e-nanoPAN-PMMA) on the physicochemical, mechanical, and morphological characteristics of SC-AR. Materials and Methods: SC-AR specimens were divided into conventional SC-AR (SC-ARc) and nano-reinforced SC-AR (SC-ARnano) groups. Chemical characteristics were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Flexural strength (FS) and flexural modulus (FM) were assessed using a three-point bending test, while fracture-surface morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data were analyzed using an independent t-test (P≤0.05). Results and Discussion: SC-ARnano exhibited significantly higher FS and FM than SC-ARc (P≤0.05). XRD patterns showed characteristic polymeric resin features in both groups, with no additional crystalline peaks in SC-ARnano. FTIR revealed a nitrile absorption band in SC-ARnano. SEM demonstrated nanofibers embedded within the resin matrix, with no detectable surface porosity. Conclusion: Incorporation of 1 wt% e-nanoPAN-PMMA significantly improved the mechanical properties of SC-AR while maintaining its physicochemical characteristics. SC-ARnano demonstrates potential as a reinforced acrylic resin for biomedical applications.

Abstract

Introduction: Brushing dentures with conventional toothpaste may compromise the mechanical and physical properties of heat-cured acrylic resin because of its high abrasive content. Small white ginger extract paste, which contains phenolic compounds, presents potential as an alternative cleansing agent. The present study analyzes the effect of brushing with small white ginger extract paste on the surface hardness, impact strength, and flexural strength of heat-cured acrylic resin plates. Materials and Methods: This study used heat-cured acrylic resin specimens (65 x 10 x 2,5 mm) and divided them into three brushing groups: small white ginger extract paste, placebo paste, and distilled water. These groups were evaluated to test surface hardness (12 specimens), impact strength (27 specimens), and flexural strength (24 specimens). Data were analyzed using the One-Way ANOVA test. Results and Discussion: The mean decrease in hardness for the ginger, placebo, and distilled water groups was 1 VHN, 0.6 VHN, and 1.2 VHN, respectively, indicating no significant difference between the ginger and control groups (p > 0.05). The mean impact strength values for the ginger, placebo, and control groups were 55×103 J/mm², 50×103 J/mm², and 42×103 J/mm², respectively, demonstrating a significant difference(p<0,05). The mean flexural strength values were 96.96 MPa (ginger), 97.97 MPa (placebo), and 96.22 MPa (control), with the One-Way ANOVA test showing no significant difference (p>0,05). Conclusion: Brushing with small white ginger extract paste significantly increases impact strength without significantly reducing surface hardness or flexural strength compared to control groups.

Abstract

Introduction: Oral health awareness is considered an important factor in maintaining oral health and encouraging the utilization of dental services. However, awareness does not always translate into actual health-seeking behavior, particularly among individuals with chronic diseases. This study aimed to analyze the relationships among oral health awareness, dental caries experience, periodontal status, and dental attendance among participants in the Chronic Disease Management Program (Prolanis). Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 Prolanis participants. Oral health awareness was assessed using a structured questionnaire. Dental caries experience was measured using the Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth (DMF-T) index, while periodontal status was assessed using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN). Data regarding dental attendance were collected through interviews. Spearman’s correlation analysis was performed at the p < 0.05 significance level. Results and Discussion: Oral health awareness was significantly associated with dental caries experience and periodontal status (p value< 0.001). Participants with higher awareness tended to have lower DMF-T scores and better periodontal conditions. However, no significant association was found between oral health awareness and dental attendance. These findings indicate that awareness contributes to better oral health status but does not necessarily lead to routine utilization of dental services. Conclusion: Oral health awareness was associated with dental caries experience and periodontal status but not with dental attendance among Prolanis participants. The findings suggest an awareness–action gap, suggesting that awareness alone may be insufficient to promote regular dental visits.

Abstract

Introduction: Oral health literacy is an important determinant of oral health, particularly among older adults who are vulnerable to oral diseases, tooth loss, and functional decline. This study aims to evaluate the association among oral health literacy, oral health status, and oral health behaviors among independent older people. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 195 independent older adults aged 60 years and above in Depok. The subjects completed a self-administered questionnaire collecting information on socio-demographics. Oral health literacy was assessed using the Health Literacy in Dentistry scale with 29 items (HeLD-29), and oral health behavior was assessed using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Oral health status was recorded by clinical oral examination using the DMF-T index, CPI-modified, denture status, OHI-S, and masticatory performance was assessed subjectively. Results and Discussion: Several HeLD-29 domains were significantly correlated with clinical oral health indicators. Significant differences were found between low and high oral health literacy groups in the number of missing teeth, filled teeth, and deep periodontal pockets (p<0.05). Oral health literacy scores also differed significantly according to age group and educational level (p<0.05). No significant association was found between oral health literacy and oral health behavior. However, DMF-T score was significantly associated with dental visit pattern, and gingival bleeding was significantly associated with smoking status. Conclusion: Oral health literacy was associated with several indicators of oral health status and with sociodemographic factors, particularly age and educational level. An association was also found between oral health status and oral health behavior of independent older adults in Depok.

Abstract

Introduction: Dental health behaviors established from an early age, such as toothbrushing habits, use of fluoride toothpaste, parental supervision, dental visits, and levels of dental treatment anxiety, play a crucial role in preventing caries. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate five indicators of oral health behavior among elementary school students in Bandung City and to compare behavioral differences between students attending public and private schools. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 4,721 students, aged 6-9 years, from 14 schools. Data were collected using a questionnaire completed with assistance from dental students. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test with SPSS. Results and Discussion: The majority of students brushed their teeth twice daily (70.7%) and used fluoride toothpaste (86.9%). Parental supervision during toothbrushing was more common in private schools (18% vs. 8%). 35.3% of students had never visited a dentist, with a higher proportion in public schools (38% vs. 27%). Fear of the dentist was reported by 41.9% of students, while 94.9% stated that they were concerned about their oral health. Significant differences between public and private schools were found in toothbrushing frequency, parental assistance, fluoride use, and dental visit frequency (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Although oral health awareness among elementary school children in Bandung City is relatively high, behavioral gaps remain, particularly regarding dental visits and parental supervision. School-based interventions involving teachers and parents, combined with interactive education and reinforcement of preventive behaviors, are needed to optimize children’s oral health sustainably.
