Abstract

Nilon termoplastik merupakan basis gigi tiruan yang banyak diminati oleh para dokter gigi karena memiliki beberapa keuntungan dibandingkan bahan akrilik. Streptococcus mutans merupakan salah satu bakteri yang dapat menyebabkan terbentuknya plak gigi dan halitosis. Buah bit (Beta vulgaris L.) merupakan bahan alami sebagai anti-inflamasi yang mengandung senyawa fenol, flavonoid, saponin, tanin, dan betalain. Melalui penelitian ini diketahui efektivitas ekstrak buah bit pada pengguna gigi tiruan nilon termoplastik terhadap pertumbuhan S.mutans. Penelitian experimental laboratoris menggunakan Fittydent® sebagai kontrol positif dan akuades steril sebagai kontrol negatif. Berdasarkan uji one-way Anova, tidak tampak perbedaan yang signifikan diantara ekstrak buat bit 10% dan 40% (p>0,05). Perendaman plat nilon termoplastik dalam ekstrak buah bit 10% dan 40% memberikan pengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan bakteri S.mutans. Hal ini disebabkan sifat nilon termoplastik yang mudah menyerap air dan senyawa fenol yang terkandung pada ekstrak buah bit secara difusi. Disimpulkan bahwa ekstrak buah bit memiliki efektivitas dalam menghambat pertumbuhan S.mutans pada plat nilon termoplastik.

Abstract

The study was conducted to compare the compressive strength of recycled type III gypsum and Portland Composite Cement (PCC) mixtures with manufactured type III gypsum in a laboratory experiment with post-test only control group design. A total of 20 samples were divided into 5 gypsum groups, namely type III manufactured, type III recycled, a mixture of type III recycled and PCC at 1%, 3%, and 5% respectively. The compressive strength test was conducted using Universal Testing Machine and ana-lysed using one-way Anova test. The highest compressive strength was obtained for the manufactured type III gypsum and the lowest compressive strength was obtained for the recycled type III gypsum; there was a significant difference in compressive strength (p<0.05) between the treatment groups. It was concluded that the addition of various concentrations of PCC to recycled type III gypsum increased the compressive strength of recycled type III gypsum, although it did not match that of manufactured type III gypsum.

Abstract

Assessment of mandibular growth potential is important in orthodontic treatment planning. Bone age, such as cervical vertebral bone (CVB) age, is consider-ed more accurate than chronological age in assessing skeletal maturation. This article discusses the correlation between CVB and mandibular growth poten-tial (MGP) in the Javanese population, through a correlative analytical study with a cross-sectional design, using 20 digital lateral cephalometric radiographs of Javanese patients aged 8-20 years. CVB measurements were performed using the Mito method, and MGP was calculated using a regression formula. At the initial stage, the mean CVB was 10.21 years, and MGP was 10.75 mm. At the final stage, CVB increased to 16.33 years, and MGP decreased to -1.53 mm. Pearson's test showed a significant negative correlation between CVB and MGP, Sig = 0.000 (p<0.05). It was concluded that there is a correlation bet-ween CVB and MGP in the Javanese population.

Abstract

Thermoplastic nylon is a denture base that is in high demand by dentists because it has several advantages over acrylic resin materials. Streptococcus mutans is one of the bacteria that can cause the formation of dental plaque and halitosis. Beetroot (Be-ta vulgaris L.) is a natural ingredient as an anti-inflammatory that contains phenol compounds, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and betalains. Through this study, the effectiveness of beetroot extract on thermoplastic nylon denture users against the growth of S.mutans was determined. The experimental laboratory study used Fittydent® as positive control and sterile distilled water as negative control. Based on one-way Anova test, there was no significant difference between 10% and 40% beetroot extract (p>0.05). Immersion of thermoplastic nylon plates in 10% and 40% beetroot extract had an effect on the growth of S.mutans bacteria. This is due to the nature of thermoplastic nylon which easily absorbs water and phenol compounds contained in beet-root extract by diffusion. It is concluded that beetroot extract has the effectiveness in inhibiting the growth of S.mutans on ther-moplastic nylon plates.

Abstract

Oral health is an important aspect of a person's general health. This study analyses the relationship between the duration of betel chewing and the status of ca-ries and oral hygiene in the 26-35-year-old population of Kampung Pomako. This quantitative cross-sectional study consisted of individuals who had a habit of chewing betel, and the sample was selected using accidental sampling techniques. Data were collected through interviews, clinical observations, and examina-tions to measure the respondents' caries status and oral hygiene status. It appears that the habit of continuous betel nut chewing and poor oral hygiene tends to increase the risk of plaque formation, tartar, and tooth discolouration. Based on the Spearman correlation test, a p-value of 0.040 (< 0.05) was obtained, which means that there is a significant relationship between the duration of betel nut chewing and dental caries status, but there is no significant relationship bet-ween the duration of betel nut chewing and dental and oral hygiene status (p-value 0.077). It is concluded that education on dental and oral hygiene is import-ant for people who have a betel nut chewing habit.

Abstract

Conventionally, manual measurement of the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) is time-consuming and prone to error. To address this chal-lenge, a dental calculator application was developed as a digital technology-based solution to speed up GOHAI calculations. This study determined the dura-tion of manual GOHAI measurement compared to the use of a digital dental calculator application. This was a quasi-experimental study with a posttest-only group design. Convenience sampling was used, resulting in a total of 70 samples from the population of students at the Faculty of Dentistry, Baiturrah-mah University, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data collection process consisted of manual measurements taken in the first week and di-gital measurements taken in the third week. It was found that the average GOHAI measurement time using the digital dental calculator application (36.28 se-conds) was faster than using paper and pen (88.78 seconds) with a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05), indicating a significant difference. The average difference in GOHAI measurement time between the manual and digital methods was 52.5 seconds. It was concluded that there was a difference in time between the use of a digital dental calculator and a manual application for GOHAI measurement.

Abstract

Periodontal disease is a disease caused by damage to the tooth supporting tissue starting from inflammation of the gingiva which is reversible and then gets worse until there is loss of tooth supporting tissue and periodontitis. During the Covid-19 pandemic, people were encouraged to postpone dental treatment or not come to the dentist's office. It was found that an increased inflam-matory response as a result of SARS-CoV-2 infection could trigger periodontitis and this is because the presence of periodontal disease is a predisposing factor for Covid-19. Descriptive observational study through panoramic and periapical radiographic data in March-September 2022, then the results were entered into distribution tables and graphs. Periodontal disease was found to be most prevalent in males. Based on age, most occurred in the adult age group, and the most common periodontal disease found was chronic periodontitis which occurred mostly in men. It is concluded that the prevalence of periodontal disease in RSGMP Universitas Hasanuddin Makassar after the pandemic is high due to people who are still not free to go to the dentist as an effort to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
