Abstract

This case report is aimed to describe the case management of a 20-year-old woman who came to Unhas RSGMP with the main complaint of yellowish upper and lower front teeth due to frequent consumption of tea for a long time. The patient felt less confi-dent and wanted her teeth to be whiter. The stages of external bleach treatment are carried out, namely tooth cleaning using a brush and pumice then determining the initial colour of the patient's teeth using the opalescence boost shade guide, astringent ap-plication to the gingival sulcus then gingival barrier. H2O2 40% bleach material was applied for 20 minutes with 2 application cy-cles. In the final stage, application of desensitiser material and giving post-bleaching instructions to the patient. After the bleach procedure, there was an increase in tooth colour of 4 grades from A2 to B1. At the 8-day post-bleaching control, there was no change in tooth colour. The patient was satisfied with the treatment results. It is concluded that external bleaching is a minimally invasive treatment that is simple and effective in providing aesthetic results on teeth that have extrinsic discoloration.

Abstract

To determine the antibacterial effectiveness of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation solution and garlic extract nano-particles (Allium sativum Linn.) against Enterococcus faecalis. This type of research is an in vitro laboratory experiment with a post-test only with control group design using the dilution method. The research sample consisted of garlic nanoparticles, 2.5% NaOCl, and distilled water with each repetition carried out 3 times. The antibacterial ability is based on the inhibition zone formed around the stainless-steel cylinder on the MHA medium. Data processing and analysis techniques were carried out using the Shapiro Wilk test and one-way Anova. The average diameter of each inhibition zone for the antibacterial of garlic extract nano-particles with concentrations of 20%, 30% and 40% was 30.69±1.03 mm, 34.73±1.09 mm and 39.66±2.14 mm, meanwhile 2.5% NaOCl showed an average inhibition zone diameter of 35.49±0.55 mm. It is concluded that garlic extract nanoparticles concen-centrations of 20%, 30% and 40% have a very strong antibacterial effect against E.faecalis.

Abstract

Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera Lam.) are widely used for healing and nutrition because they contain tannins, flavonoids, and saponins. Flavonoids can acce- lerate the healing of inflammation by increasing fibroblasts. This article explores the effect of topical application of ML extract gel on increasing the number of fibroblasts in the healing process of stomatitis in male Wistar rats. This laboratory experimental study used a randomised post-test only control group design. Thirty rats were divided into five groups: positive control (K+), negative control (K-), and ML extract gel concentrations of 15% (P1), 20% (P2), and 25% (P3). Stomatitis was induced using 35% hydrogen peroxide for 6 days, then the gel was applied to the stomatitis for 3 days. The number of fibroblasts was observed on day 4 using HE staining, showing that the average number of fibroblasts in (K-) was 3.33, (K+) was 8.16; P1 was 5.00, increased to 6.50 in P2, and re-ached 7.33 in P3. Statistical tests showed a significant difference (p<0.05) between the treatment group and the negative control. It was concluded that the application of 25% DK extract gel had higher efficacy than other concentrations.

Abstract

Red ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum) is a plant that is often used as a research material and contains antibacterial compounds such as flavo-noids, oleoresin, essential oils and tannins. This study explored the use of RG extract to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans through laboratory experi-ments using a post-test only control group design, with 24 samples consisting of a positive control group treated with vancomycin antibiotics, and groups trea-ted with RG extract at concentrations of 10%, 30% and 60%. The inhibition power at a concentration of 10% was 6.5 mm, 30% was 6.83 mm, and 60% was 8.83 mm. The higher the extract concentration, the greater the amount of antibacterial compounds released. It was concluded that the inhibition power of RG extract concentrations of 10%, 30% and 60% could inhibit the growth of S.mutans; the 60% concentration was the most effective.

Abstract

Registration data for dental and oral services at the Kerambitan II Community Health Centre for the period October 2024-March 2025 shows that periodontal disease cases rank second among the highest diseases. Periodontitis is an inflammation and infection that occurs in the periodontal tissue and alveolar bone supporting the teeth. This descriptive study provides an overview of the prevalence of periodontitis cases among dental clinic visitors at the Kerambitan II Com-munity Health Centre from October 2024 to March 2025. The total population consisted of all visitors who had their teeth checked at the dental clinic, and the sample consisted of patients suffering from periodontitis. From the analysis of periodontal disease prevalence data based on gender, the highest prevalence was found in males (56.61%). It was concluded that periodontitis occurred among dental clinic visitors at the Kerambitan II Community Health Centre in Ta-banan from October 2024 to March 2025, with 189 sufferers, predominantly males at 56.61%. This is likely due to males having more unhealthy habits such as smoking and drinking alcohol.

Abstract

Hydroxyapatite (HA) participates in the chemical changes that occur during the initial hardening of cement. Calcium ions can be released from the surface of HA, which acts as additional calcium for the hardening reaction of glass ionomer cement (GIC). HA increases the density of the GIC because HA fills the empty spaces between the glass particles in the GIC. One source of cal-cium that can be obtained in the synthesis of HA is crab shells. The utilisation of crab is still limited to its meat for food purposes, while the shell is discarded. Crab shell waste can cause air and soil pollution. Mangrove crab (Scylla serrata) shell waste contains high calcium compounds (CaCO3), which is 53-78% of the dry shell weight. This high calcium content can be used as HA ma-terial. This literature review discusses the synthesis of HA which can be done by various methods, including precipitation, sol-gel, hydrothermal, and wet deposition methods. Different synthesis processes will certainly produce different HA powders. It is conclu-ded that calcium compounds found in crab shells can be an additional ingredient in HA for the strength of GIC cementation.

Abstract

Alveolar bone resorption is inevitable after tooth extraction. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) is a procedure to preserve and minimise alveolar bone resorption after tooth extraction for future prosthodontic treatment including dental implant placement. A total of 25 references were collected through an internet-based search using keywords, five of which were closely related to the topic at hand, namely the relationship between ARP treatment in preparation for implant placement in the last ten years analy-sed through table synthesis. ARP is a procedure to preserve or minimise alveolar ridge resorption after tooth extraction. ARP procedures using graft materials such as autograft, allograft, xenograft, or alloplastic, have been shown to minimise alveolar bone resorption so that implants requiring an ideal ridge can be obtained. It is concluded that ARP can minimise alveolar bone resorption post extraction and optimise the ridge prior to implant placement.

Abstract

Maxillofacial injuries are a group of injuries that can be life-threatening and interfere with vital functions. Proper and timely treatment is essential to prevent acute and long-term complications. Dentists play a central role in the initial assessment and treatment of these injuries. This study analyses how dentists in In-donesia manage maxillofacial injuries at various levels of healthcare facilities. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using a structured question-naire administered to 30 dentists working in community health centres and hospitals of various types. Data were analysed using SPSS to obtain frequency distributions, percentages, and descriptive statistics. The findings show variations in clinical management related to the type of health facility and the clinical experience of the dentist. Common core management steps include airway assessment, bleeding control, and the application of advanced trauma life support (ATLS) (ABCDE) principles in the early phase of treatment. It was concluded that the management of maxillofacial trauma by dentists in Indonesia varies according to the work environment and professional experience. Continuing education and targeted training are needed to improve the competence of dentists in optimally handling these cases.

Abstract

Pathological tooth migration (PTM) is a common disorder in chronic periodontitis. Clinical signs of PTM include labial tooth shift-ing, diastema, rotation and extrusion, resulting in aesthetic disturbance and patient visits to the dental clinic. This literature review discusses the periodontic-orthodontic treatment approach to manage PTM cases. An internet-based search was conducted to identify literature on PTM using several keywords. Orthodontic treatment can be started once the periodontal disease is controlled. Good treatment results can be achieved in patients with compromised dentofacial aesthetics. It is concluded that an interdiscipli-nary periodonti-orthodontic approach can help achieve good functional and aesthetic outcomes in malocclusion cases with per-vasive chronic periodontitis.

Abstract

Teeth whitening (bleaching) procedures are popular treatments due to increasing aesthetic demands. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the most commonly used agent in these procedures due to its clinically proven efficacy. The use of biomaterials such as gingival protectors and potassium nitrate-based desensitising agents has improved the safety profile of teeth whitening procedures. A 36-year-old woman presented to Hasanuddin University Hospital with the primary com-plaint of yellowing of her anterior teeth for approximately one year, seeking to improve her self-confidence. An in-office bleaching was performed using 40% H2O2 (Opalescence Boost), followed by the application of a gingival protectant (Opaldam-Ultradent) and the use of a potassium nitrate desensitising agent (Ul-traEZ) post-treatment. Hydrogen peroxide penetrates the enamel and releases free radicals that oxidise and break down the pigments causing stains into smaller, colourless molecules. The gingival protectant effectively prevents gingival irritation, while the desensitising agent relieves dentine sensitivity by depo-larising nerve endings and sealing dentine tubules. The external bleaching resulted in a significant colour change from 8 to 4. It was concluded that external bleaching treatment using 40% H?O? combined with protective measures for the gingival tissue effectively whitens teeth and achieves optimal results with minimal side effects.
