Abstract

Root resorption is a physiological and pathological process that leads to progressive tooth damage, particularly the loss of den-tine, root cementum, and ultimately tooth loss. Generally, the process of root resorption is classified into internal and external cate-gories, with several subclassifications. Treatment for internal and external root resorption may include preventive measures such as adequate endodontic treatment, as well as therapeutic interventions, for example, the use of intra-canal materials and antibio-tics, surgery, or extraction. This study compiles existing and up-to-date knowledge on root resorption classification to facilitate sim-ple diagnosis and explains root resorption treatment based on its subclassifications in the field of dental conservation. It is con-cluded that the accuracy and early diagnosis of root resorption classification are crucial for determining appropriate treatment.

Abstract

Chitosan is a cationic polyaminosaccharide that can be chemically modified and holds great potential in endodontic applications. Its biological and physico-chemical properties, such as cross-linking ability, antimicrobial activity, and metal ion-binding capacity, support its use as a root canal irrigant. In both stan-dalone form and in combination with sodium hypochlorite and EDTA, chitosan has proven effective in removing the smear layer and inhibiting biofilm forma-tion. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan as an alternative root canal irrigant in supporting the success of endodontic therapy. Many re-sults indicate that chitosan shows promising potential as an irrigating agent due to its ability to combine chelating and antimicrobial effects without causing adverse effects on dentin structure. Therefore, chitosan deserves consideration as an alternative irrigant in modern endodontic practice.

Abstract

The use of synthetic materials in dentistry often leads to problems with medical waste that is difficult to degrade and the risk of infection due to suboptimal mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Acrylic resin, for example, is prone to fracture and can become a breeding ground for microorganisms that cause denture stomatitis. Furthermore, the use of denture adhesives can cause mucosal irritation and increase the risk of infection. This article evaluates the potential of seaweed biopolymers as an environmentally friendly, biocompatible, and multifunctional alternative material in dentistry. Seaweed biopoly-mers are expected to address waste issues and support clinical applications such as dental impression materials, tissue scaffolds, and drug delivery sys-tems effectively and safely. Consequently, the use of seaweed biopolymers can promote more sustainable and innovative dental practices. It is conclu-ded that seaweed biopolymers are environmentally friendly, biocompatible, and multifunctional alternative material for dentistry. Further research is required to optimise their clinical applications

Abstract

The use of fixed orthodontic appliances increases the risk of plaque accumulation due to the numerous retentive areas around the brackets and wires. 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash is the gold standard for plaque control, but its long-term use can cause side effects. Lemongrass essential oil (Cymbopogon citra-tus) possesses antibacterial activity, making it a potential safer alternative mouthwash. Differences in the effectiveness of 0.25% lemongrass essential oil mouth spray and 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash in reducing supragingival plaque scores were reported among students using fixed orthodontic appliances. A quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test control group design was conducted on 30 participants (15 in each group). Plaque scores were mea-sured using the OHI-S before and after the intervention. Analysis was performed using a paired t-test and an independent samples t-test (?=0.05). The 0.25% lemongrass mouth spray reduced plaque scores from 56.64% to 25.44% (p=0.001). The 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash reduced the plaque score from 58.37% to 25.87% (p=0.001). A comparison between the groups showed p=0.762, indicating no significant difference between the two. It is concluded that both agents are equally effective in reducing plaque scores, and 0.25% lemongrass mouth spray may be a safer alternative to 0.12% chlorhexidine.

Abstract

Cephalometric analysis plays an important role in planning corrective treatment and assessing changes that occur during orthodontic treatment. One of the most commonly used cephalometric analyses is the Steiner analysis, which is used to determine the anteroposterior position of the maxilla and mandible, particularly the SNA, SNB, and ANB angles. Longitudinal studies conducted between 1940 and 1960 serve as the commonly used standard of normality and function as the baseline for evaluation. However, the morphological variations between different ethnic groups and populations cannot be ignored and should be considered when determining cephalometric normalcy standards for various racial and ethnic groups. To address this issue, some researchers have attempted to define cephalometric values for different ethnic groups to provide a more comprehensive approach. This study compares the standard cephalometric values of Steiner analysis (SNA, SNB, ANB) across different ethnic groups. It was concluded that there are specific standard cephalometric values for each ethnic group, making them highly useful for diagnosis and developing treatment plans.

Abstract

One of the important steps in endodontic treatment is root canal preparation using files. Instrumentation difficulties in significantly curved root canals increase with increasing curvature angles, so adequate equipment is needed to handle them. In root canal preparation using a machine, there are two types of file movements commonly used: continuous rotation (CR) motion and reci-procating motion. The CR has several drawbacks, including the risk of file fracture due to interlocking and the need for multiple file sizes, which prolongs treatment time. The Reciprocating File System (RFS) is of interest because it can use a single file and has good resistance to torsional failure and cyclic fatigue. This study examines the effectiveness and efficiency of RFS in root canal curvature preparation. It is concluded that RFS is nearly as effective as CR but more efficient because it can use a single file and, specifically, has resistance to interlocking in the root canal as it does not easily lock.

Abstract

Severe alveolar bone resorption is a challenge in the fabrication of complete dentures. Loss of all teeth often leads to impaired masticatory function, which can affect the digestive system and nutritional intake. The close mouth moulding technique is sug-gested to overcome the limitations of conventional techniques in flat ridge cases, in order to obtain a denture that is firm and comfortable to use, especially when chewing. This article describes the treatment of a flat ridge case in a patient with digestive and nutritional disorders, using the close mouth moulding technique. A 65-year-old woman came to RSGMP Unhas with com-plaints of loose dentures making it difficult to chew, and even had to undergo hospitalisation due to complaints of heartburn so that it was recommended to use a denture by an internal medicine doctor. The patient wanted to make a denture that was firm, comfortable, and improved his appearance. The patient was made an acrylic CD with a close mouth moulding technique. It was concluded that the close mouth moulding technique was effective in producing CDs that were firm, stable, and could restore masticatory function in patients with flat ridge.

Abstract

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) can facilitate implant osseointegration as it functions in the bone healing process. Chlorella vulgaris creates an intracellular bioactive substance called chlorella growth factor (CGF) that can promote bone growth. This study dis-cusses PRP coating and CV 5% ointment on the formation of bone-implant contact (BIC) after dental implant placement in a labo-ratory experiment with a quasi-experimental post-test group design. The samples were 12 implant-placed tooth sockets from 2 male Landrace pigs divided into 2 groups: 5% CV ointment and PRP coating. SEM photographs were taken on day 22 postim-plantation. The sig value of 0.018 was less than α, so there was a significant difference between the BIC of the implants coated with PRP and CV 5%. PRP as a coating on the implant surface can stimulate the bone remodeling process. CV 5% as a bioactive material injected into the socket before implant placement can stimulate the growth and development of fibroblasts and is antipro-teolytic and stimulates tissue formation. It is concluded that PRP coating and 5% CV ointment have effect on the process of BIC formation after dental implant placement.
