Abstract

Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a restorative material with several advantages such as anti-cariogenic properties, biocompati-bility, and natural colour, but has the disadvantage of poor mechanical properties such as low fracture and brittleness. One ap-proach to overcome these drawbacks is to add hydroxyapatite (HA), which has high biocompatibility and a crystal structure simi-lar to human teeth and bone. Over the past few decades, technological developments have introduced materials that are suita-ble for use in various biomedical applications, especially in dentistry. Research shows that HA, extracted from various natural ma-terials, can improve the mechanical properties of GICs; it also retains unique properties such as fluoride release. Thus, the use of HA as an additive in GICs shows significant potential to improve the performance of these dental restorative materials.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of sugary drinks on the pH value of saliva in children, is an analytical observation with expe-rimental methods regarding the relationship of sugary drinks to the pH value of saliva measured using a pH meter. The research was conducted at RA Hudallah Kujangsari Village, Langensari Subdistrict, Banjar City. The results showed that before drinking sugary drinks, the majority of children had a normal pH category (64%), while after drinking sugary drinks, the pH state changed to be more acidic (70%) and only 22% had a normal pH category. It was concluded that after drinking sugary drinks, 78% expe-rienced a significant decrease in salivary pH, the rest had a normal pH.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that causes sufferers to be unable to regulate their blood sugar levels. Dental implant treatment causes the oral mucosa to become prone to inflammation. This condition has the potential to trigger disease at the site of implant placement such as peri-implantitis. This article examines the prevalence, mechanism, and management of peri-implantitis in patients with DM. Data were collected by literature searches on Pubmed, Science Direct and Cochrane Li-brary for articles published in 2017-2024, using the PRISMA method for systematic and literature reviews. Seven articles were synthesised through selection and filtering methods. The articles found all had a correlation with peri-implantitis, peri-implant di-sease and DM either through healing, micro organisms, and severity as well as potential treatment modalities. It was conclu-ded that there are several conditions that may have an association between DM and peri-implantitis and peri-implant disease.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of motivational interviewing method on oral health behaviour of pregnant women. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a pretest and posttest design with control group with the subject of pregnant women at RSIA Sitti Khadijah 1 Makassar. Based on the results of the normality test with Shapiro Wilk, the data were not normally distributed, so the Wilcoxon test was used with the results of knowledge, attitudes and actions that were significantly different between the motivational interviewing group and dental health education with a value of p<0.05 (0.000) and the results of importance, interest, self-efficacy and perception were significantly different between the motivational interviewing group and dental health education with a value of p <0.05 (0.000). It is concluded that motivational interviewing is effective in changing the health behaviour of pregnant women at RSIA Sitti Khadijah 1 Makassar.

Abstract

Pulp polyps are known as chronic hyperplastic pulpitis. Clinically, these polyps appear as proliferative red masses mostly associated with the occlusal surfaces of non-vital molars in individuals with higher immunity and are caused by long-standing low-grade infections. Radiographically, the pulp lesion does not show any periapical changes, but delay in treatment can lead to the spread of inflammation into the periodontal ligament through the apical foramen. This case report aims to find out and understand the polyps that occur in paediatric patients who are treated at RSGM Baiturrahmah Padang. One of the managements of pulppolyps is by performing root canal treatment as well as in the diagnosis of pulpitis, only preceded by the removal of polyp tissue. In conclusion, the prognosis of pulp polyps is very good. There is no risk of recurrence after definitive treatment is given.

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 entering 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 treatment showed significant improvement where the patient no longer complained of pain and the swelling had begun to decrease. It is concluded that abscess management should be done as early as possible to prevent the spread of infection.

Abstract

The most common temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is disc displacement with reduction (DDWR). Clicking as a characteristic symptom of DDWR requires conservative treatment such as occlusal splint. However, other accompanying symptoms such as pain in the masticatory muscles require additional treatment like physiotherapy. This paper aims to describe DDWR treatment using a stabilization splint and physiotherapy using infrared lamp therapy. A 33-year-old male came to the Prosthodontics Clinic with chief complaints that there is soreness on right jaw when he wakes up in the morning and was aware of it since a year ago. The patient has a habit of teeth grinding during sleep. Clinical examination, a sound on the right and left jaw joint when opening and closing the mouth, mouth opening without pain of 50.5 mm with deviation to the right, pain in the muscles around the face, especially the masseter, temporalis and trapezius. Radiograph shows the position of the right and left mandibular condyles an-terior to the articular tubercle. A stabilizing splint is used for symptomatic treatment and physiotherapy is carried out in the form of infrared lamp therapy. It is concluded that the combination of stabilizing splint and infrared lamp therapy can reduce pain and clicking in TMD’s patients.

Abstract

Dental caries lesions in children can have a significant impact on quality of life. According to WHO, QoL is a perception that comes from individuals consisting of functional abilities, interaction in society, psychological health, physical health, and life satisfaction. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between dental caries lesion status and quality of life in children aged 10-12 years at SDN 196 Sukarasa, Bandung City. Analytic observational descriptive research, with a cross-sectional study de-sign. Hypothesis testing was carried out using the Spearman Rank test. The results showed a mean DMF-T index value of 0.3 with low caries status (100%). The mean value of the def-t index was 2.1 with low (68%), medium (19%), and high (13%) caries sta-tus. There is a relationship between dental caries lesion status and quality of life in children. Statistically the correlation between the two is significant because it has a probability value of 0.000 (Sig.<0.05). The lower the score of the child's dental caries lesion sta-tus, the better the child's quality of life. It is concluded that dental caries lesion status can affect children's quality of life.
