Abstract

Cancers are serious diseases with various etiologies mainly due to unhealthy dietary habits and lifestyles. However, almost all drugs used for anti-cancer therapy are usually toxic and generally affect normal healthy cells, hence the search for new com-pounds that are effective, non-toxic and natural. In particular, algae contain many valuable components with great anti-cancer potential. Carrageenan is a general term describing a group of sulphated polysaccharides in red algae that present a major com-ponent of the cell wall and interstitial space functioning as a forming compound and providing intercellular adhesion and inter-cellular signalling. Carrageenan isolated from red algae has been the object of drug discovery over the past few decades as it exhibits anti-cancer capabilities.

Abstract

Caries can cause dental pain that can reduce children's activities and reduce appetite, which in turn can interfere with children's physical growth. Poor parental attitudes can cause anxiety in children and affect the incidence of oral disease because it makes children less likely to maintain oral hygiene or increased sugar consumption, has been shown to cause plaque accumulation which increases the risk of caries. The study aimed to determine the effect of parental attitudes in feeding on the occurrence of early caries in preschool children. This study used an analytic observational method and was included in a cross-sectional research design. The statistical test used was Spearman; on 60 samples. Based on the results of the Spearman correlation test, the p-va-lue of 0.002 is smaller than 0.05 in the control of eating (COE) category. This means that there is an influence of parental at-titudes in feeding on early caries in children. It is concluded that there is an influence of parental attitudes in feeding on early caries in preschool children, namely in the COE category.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic condition that describes the inhibition of child growth due to long-term malnutrition. This condition is an advanced manifestation of the high of low birth weight (LBW) and malnutrition during toddlerhood. One of the causes of child stunting is malnutrition; while good nutrition is necessary for health. Nutrition also plays an important role in the development and defense of oral health, especially teeth and gingiva. The condition of healthy or unhealthy teeth and gingiva can affect child-ren's food intake because children who are malnourished will have an increased risk of high caries due to reduced salivary func-tion as a buffer, cleanser, and antibacterial in the oral cavity. The study discussed the relationship between stunting and caries sta-tus in children aged 3-5 years in Parangloe District, Gowa Regency. Analytic observational study with cross sectional design using hard file questionnaire. Data were tested using Pearson correlation. The sample consisted of stunted children recorded at the Parangloe Health Center in 2021, as many as 30 respondents, showing a p-value coefficient of 0.047 (p<0.05) which means there is a significant relationship. It is concluded that there is a relationship between stunting and caries status in children aged 3-5 years in Parangloe District, Gowa Regency in 2021.

Abstract

Pain is an unpleasant experience that can be a sensory experience that includes time, space and emotions that can be experi-rienced by every individual. One of the drugs used as an analgesic is paracetamol which is non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) class of drugs. Afrikan leaves (Vernonia amygdalina) were found to have an analgesic effect or relieve pain due to the presence of flavonoids, tannins and saponins. It can be concluded that the bioactive compounds contained in african leaf ex-tract have an analgesic effect. The analgesic effect is obtained from flavonoids which have activity similar to paracetamol, namely inhibiting the formation of inflammatory mediators through inhibition of the cyclooxygenase enzyme.

Abstract

Periodontal abscess is an infection that is located adjacent to the periodontal pockets and can cause damage to the perodontal li-gament and alveolar bone. One of the gram-positive anaerobic bacteria that play a role in abscess formation is Staphylococcus aureus, and can be inhibited by utilising tamarind fruit (Tamarindus indica L.). This study investigated tamarind fruit pulp ex-tract at concentrations of 10%, 50%, and 100% to inhibit the growth of S.aureus bacteria with true experimental in vitro with post-test only control group design. The treatment group was given 10%, 50%, and 100% tamarind fruit flesh extract. Clinda-mycin as positive control and 96% ethanol as negative control. Bacterial inhibition test on tamarind fruit pulp extract showed strong inhibition response at 10% concentration (13.05±2.21 mm, 50% (28.55±0.78 mm), and 100% (20.21±0.21 mm). It is concluded that tamarind fruit pulp extract can inhibit the growth of S.aureus bacteria.

Abstract

Penggunaan bahan bleaching hidrogen peroksida dapat mengganggu permeabilitas jaringan sehingga menyebabkan lesi, karena proses demineralisasi yang disebabkan bahan bleaching yang bersifat asam sehingga dibutuhkan bahan untuk remineralisasi gigi. Casein phophopeptideamorphus calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) merupakan bahan yang telah banyak digunakan di bidang kedokteran gigi preventif dan terbukti memberikan perlindungan terhadap asam. Artikel ini memberi gambaran morfologi permukaan gigi yang telah diaplikasi pasta CPP-ACP. Penelitian experimental laboratoris dengan desain pre and post-test with control group. Sebanyak 10 sampel dibagi rata menjadi dua kelompok, kontrol dan perlakuan. Sampel kontrol direndam dalam saliva buatan selama 24 jam kemudian dicuci dengan akuades. Sampel perlakuan diaplikasikan hidrogen peroksida 35% selama 2 jam, kemudian dibersihkan dengan akuades lalu diamati dengan SEM, selanjutnya diaplikasikan pasta CPP-ACP setiap 8 jam selama 14 hari berturut-turut kemudian diamati dengan SEM. Pasta CPP-ACP terbukti dapat membantu dalam menghambat demineralisasi dan meningkatkan proses remineralisasi gigi. Disimpulkan bahwa gigi yang telah diaplikasi pasta CPP-ACP tampak halus dengan sedikit goresan yang dangkal dan terdapat porositas di sekitarnya dengan ukuran pori yang tampak kecil.

Abstract

Beberapa gangguan pernapasan saat tidur adalah sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), upper airway resistance syndrome, dan sleep apnea obstructive. Terapi myofunctional melibatkan latihan yang dirancang meningkatkan koordinasi, kekuatan, dan kontrol otot orofasial. Tinjauan ini disusun sesuai PRISMA dan disesuaikan dengan pedoman jurnal. Penelitian ini menunjukkan terapi myofunctional menjadi pendekatan non-bedah yang efektif dalam mengelola sleep-disordered breathing pada anak. Melalui latihan otot-otot orofasial, terapi ini berpotensi mengurangi keparahan gejala SDB dan meningkatkan kualitas tidur anak. Terapi myofunctional tidak hanya membantu mengatasi obstruksi saluran napas yang disebabkan oleh pembesaran adenoid atau tonsil, tetapi juga berkontribusi pada perbaikan fungsi orofasial secara keseluruhan. Disimpulkan bahwa pendekatan holistik dalam pengelolaan SDB dapat memberikan hasil yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan metode tradisional seperti penggunaan continuous positive airway pressure atau intervensi bedah.

Abstract

Crowdedteethhave a major negative influence on the dentomaxillary system. In addition toaesthetic concerns, which arethe main motivating factor for requesting dentaltreatment,there areother functionalconsequences that canbe factors favoringthe onset anddevelopment ofperiodontaldisease.This articlereportsthe treatmentofsevere crowding anddeepbite withpremolar extraction.A 20-year-old female presented withsevere crowding of the upper and lower anterior teeth. Thepatient complain- edabout facialaesthetics and convexprofile, andhadboth lower first molars extracted about 2 years ago. There was agenitionof the right upper first premolar,deep bite and anterior crossbite. Clinicalexamination showed a Class I relationship forthe teeth and cephalometric measurementsshowed a Class IIskeletal tendency.The left upper first premolar was extracted for anterior crowding correction andoverbitecorrection. Thespace ofthe missing lower first molar was used for correction oflower crowd- ing.A two-step extraction technique was used to correct the patient's verticalplaneandprofile. It is concludedthat upper first premolar extraction is one of the options in the treatment of crowding. Unilateral extraction treatment can be performed to achieve an aesthetically pleasing and functionally stable occlusion.

Abstract

Orthodontic treatment aims to regulate the growth and development of the jaw and teeth. The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a hinge joint that connects the upper and lower jaw bones between the temporal bone and the head of the mandibular con-dyle. Orthodontic treatment of patients with a history of restriction of TMJ movement experienced statistically significant re-sults and reduction of TMJ pain. The results of the analysis of 6 journals stated that orthodontic treatment had a significant re-lationship with temporomandibular joint disorders. Orthodontic treatment can cause TMD such as structural disorders of the TMJ and functional disorders. Orthodontic treatment can also help overcome TMD such as reducing pain in the TMJ and pro-viding balance to the occlusion.

Abstract

Public awareness of the importance of orthodontic treatment to correct malocclusion is increasing. Orthodontic treatment like any other medical treatment can pose a risk to the patient, due to errors that occur during treatment. This literature review aimed to determine the errors that can occur during orthodontic treatment and the risks they can pose to patients. Scientific information relevant to the study topic was collected and synthesized into an article. In general, errors can originate from orthodontic treat-ment, including the type of appliance used, the direction and amount of force applied, the skill of the clinician and the length of treatment. Errors can also originate from the patient, namely biological and behavioral factors of the patient. It is concluded that orthodontic treatment errors and patient factors can cause risks to patients during orthodontic treatment, namely periodontal da-mage, pain, root resorption, tooth devitalization, temporomandibular joint disorders, caries, and enamel damage. A good under-standing of treatment procedures, diagnosis and patient informed consent is needed in order to minimize the risks of orthodon-tic treatment that can occur in patients.
