Abstract

Gingivitis is usually caused by plaque on the tooth surface which, if left untreated, can progress to periodontitis. This case review is intended to study periodontitis in a child who made a treatment visit to RSGM Baiturrahmah Padang. Although the treat-ment consisted of initial periodontal treatment, supragingival and subgingival scaling was performed to reduce periodontal pa-thogens found in dental plaque. The success of aggressive periodontitis treatment depends on the initial diagnosis. Patients were evaluated for improvement after initial treatment was completed. Patients are educated and motivated on how to maintain oral hygiene. This is followed by therapy against micro-organism infection and avoiding an infection-free environment for heal-ing by administering systemic antibiotics to the patient. In this case, the management only reached the initial stage. It is conclu-ded that it is important to recognise and treat aggressive periodontitis early as it can prevent severe periodontal tissue damage.

Abstract

Dental caries is the most common oral problem in Indonesia, especially in school-age children and children with special needs. This study aims to determine the prevalence of caries in deaf children at Sekolah Luar Biasa (B) Cicendo and Prima Bhakti. This analytical observational study used a cross sectional design. Data were collected using purposive sampling technique by con-ducting oral examination based on ICDAS and Mount and Hume classification. The total sample was 92 deaf children aged 7-14 years. The prevalence of permanent first molar caries was 63% (232 teeth); based on the ICDAS classification, the highest pre-valence was in the non-cavitary/D1 carious lesion category, which was 33.1% (122 teeth), while based on the Mount and Hume classification, the highest prevalence was in category 1.1, which was 33.4% (123 teeth). It is concluded that 63% of the perma-nent first molar teeth observed had caries which may be due to the anatomical structure of the teeth which have narrow pits and fissures, poor brushing habits, and repeated exposure to cariogenic substances.

Abstract

Replacement of missing teeth should be done with several considerations including retention. The use of precision anchorage is an appropriate alternative choice for patient comfort. A precision link is a small interlocking device to connect the denture to the abutment teeth that can provide biomechanical and aesthetic benefits. A 56-year-old woman came to Hasanuddin University Oral and Dental Hospital because she could not chew food properly and wanted a denture made. The patient had partial loss of upper and lower teeth, and felt some upper teeth were loose. The loose teeth were extracted and the remaining teeth 13,12,11, 21,23 were made into a longspan bridge and the edentulus part was made into a metal frame denture with precision links. The use of precision cusps in bilateral free end maxillary aesthetic correction cases using a combination of fixed and removable den-tures is one of the best treatments other than implants. It is concluded that precision linking significantly improved denture reten-tion and patient comfort. The combined treatment option of using a fixed and removable denture in this case provided a better aesthetic appearance as well as improved function and favourable retention.

Abstract

This case report describes the use of desensitising agent to reduce tooth sensitivity after in office bleaching procedure. A 22-year-old female came to RSGMP Universitas Hasanuddin with a chief complaint of lack of confidence due to yellowish front teeth. In office bleaching treatment was performed using 40% hydrogen peroxide and 3% potassium fluoride applicationto re-duce tooth sensitivity after bleaching treatment. Desensitising agent was applied to the labial surface of the bleached teeth for 10 minutes. Sensitivity loss with the use of desensitising agents after bleaching procedures is beneficial because it can increase patient comfort. It is concluded that sensitivity arising after in-office bleaching treatment can be eliminated with the use of de-sensitising agents.

Abstract

This case report aims to discuss the management of a buccal abscess caused by a pulp gangrene tooth in a 29-year-old woman who came with complaints of swelling accompanied by pain in the left cheek which was felt 2 days ago before en-tering the hospital. The management in this case was by extracting the causative tooth, namely pulp gangrene tooth 36 and intra oral incision which was carried out by installing a drain at the intraoral incision. The results of this patient's treat-ment showed significant improvement where the patient no longer complained of pain and the swelling had begun to de-crease. It is concluded that abscess management should be done as early as possible to prevent the spread of infection.

Abstract

Periodontitis and hypertension have a potential relationship; both share common risk factors of smoking, stress, age, and socioe-conomics. Hypertension can impact on a patient's ability to tolerate periodontal surgical treatment. This case report describes the management of chronic periodontitis in a patient with hypertensive disease. A 42-year-old female came to the Periodontia De-partment of RSGM Unhas with a chief complaint of maxillary front teeth that were loose and forward. Anamnesis showed that the patient had a history of hypertension. Clinical examination, 2nd and 3rd degree loose teeth in the maxillary anterior region with an average socket depth of 5 mm. Clinical examination and consultation with an internist were performed, followed by scaling, root planing and periodontal surgical treatment. It was concluded that the treatment of chronic periodontitis in hypertensive pati-ents can be carried out by considering the patient's medical history so as to ensure appropriate modifications for safe periodon-tal treatment.

Abstract

Gingival recession is the most common aesthetic problem related to periodontal tissues, especially when it occurs in the maxilla-ry anterior teeth. A 44-year-old man complained of receding gums that made it difficult to brush his teeth. In teeth 11-17, 21-27, 31, 32, 42-45 Miller Class III 2-3 mm gingival recession and type 2 non-carious cervical lesions. The gingival phenotype was mo-derate in size. The patient was referred to the Periodontics Department for perioesthetic treatment of de-epithelialised free gingi-val graft and coronal advancement flap. After prosthodontic treatment for the back teeth, a combination treatment of DFGG and modified envelope CAF was performed with a combination of full and partial thickness flaps. After 2 weeks, the healing process was found to be favourable aesthetically and functionally. The periodontal state was normal and the root coverage area was fa-vourable. It was concluded that gingival recession treated with de-epithelialised gingival graft combined with coronal advance-ment flap gave the best aesthetic and functional results.

Abstract

Radicular cysts are the most common type of odontogenic cysts and are of inflammatory origin. Treatment of the cysts can be by enucleation or by marsupialisation, with a good treatment prognosis. This article is intended to illustrate the management of odontogenic cysts in a patient with a history of systemic disease. A 56-year-old man presented with a complaint of wanting to remove a residual root in the maxillary frontal region although there had never been any complaints about the tooth. Radiogra-phic examination revealed extensive bone destruction in the region, with a working diagnosis of radicular cyst. After history ta-king, it was found that the patient had a history of hypertension and diabetes. The management of patients with odontogenic cysts, especially radicular, is enucleation. The management of dental cysts in patients with systemic diseases needs to be specialised.

Abstract

This case report aims to describe one visit endodontic treatment as an option for teeth that need root canal treatment, espe-cially during the pandemic. Teledentistry was performed as the initial stage for history taking, DHE and informed consent prior to the patient's visit to the clinic for treatment on a 14-year-old patient with complaints of a decayed and painful lower back tooth. Thermal and percussion tests were positive, palpation was negative. Radiographs showed caries almost reaching the pulp with periapical radiolucency. Single length preparation technique became the treatment of choice during the pandemic. One visit endodontic treatment is effective in overcoming the patient's subjective and objective complaints. It is concluded that OVE treatment is one of the root canal treatment options, especially during a pandemic with a high success rate.
