Abstract

Background: A specific type of transitional denture called a Cu-Sil denture provides a therapy alternative for people who have a lot of natural teeth still in place and do not want to have them extracted. This is particularly salutary for cases where people may feel tone-conscious about the negative impact of tooth loss on their appearance and emotional well-being. Purpose: The purpose of this case report is to provide prosthetic rehabilitation for a partially edentulous patient while conserving the remaining natural teeth and their supporting structures. Case: With only three teeth (12, 13, and 14) remained in the maxillary arch, a 63-year-old man complained to the department of prosthodontics that he had difficulties speaking and eating since he had been missing both upper and lower teeth for a period of five years. Case management:This case report represents a simple method to fabricate a Cu-Sil denture in a partially edentulous patient. Conclusion: Cu-Sil dentures present a promising alternative for partially edentulous patients, offering a method to preserve and support the remaining natural teeth while providing effective prosthetic rehabilitation. The relining material, silicone, functions as a cushion to support the remaining natural teeth. Additionally, the use of a chairside soft-tissue liner in the basic removable partial denture helps to stabilize and retain the existing natural teeth.

Abstract

Background: Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) has long been used as a traditional medicine. The primary active component of turmeric is curcumin. It has potential anti-inflammatory effects and high antioxidant activity. Curcumin contained in turmeric has been reported as an effective treatment for Oral lichen planus (OLP). OLP is a chronic autoimmune, inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa associated with systemic disease. This disease involves the skin and mucous membranes (mucocutaneous) of stratified squamous epithelium. Purpose: This narrative review conducted on Google Scholar, PubMed, Research Gate, and ScienceDirect databases aims to study the effectiveness of curcumin contained in Turmeric (C. longa L.)   in OLP treatment. Review(s): OLP is a condition of the oral mucosa that is a chronic autoimmune mucocutaneous disease. As many as 0.5% to 2.2% of cases of OLP occur in the adult population. Systemic and topical corticosteroid drugs are usually used to treat OLP. However, the use of these drugs has many side effects, so it needs searching for a new active substance to treat OLP. Curcumin is a hydrophobic polyphenol extracted from the rhizome of the herb Curcuma longa (turmeric), which has a low molecular weight. The repeated use of steroids can cause side effects that cause atrophy of the mucosa and candidiasis. One natural product that is superior to corticosteroids is curcumin. This is due to curcumin's anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and chemopreventive properties in several diseases. Conclusion: This review suggests that OLP treatment using curcumin in Turmeric (C. longa L.)   is effective because curcumin exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticarcinogenic activities, as well as immunomodulatory properties.

Abstract

Background: In line with the development of Millard I and Tennison cleft lip surgery techniques, there are also advantages and disadvantages to each technique. The Cleft Lip Symmetry Index (CLCSI) was used to measure the symmetry of each measurement variable from the results of unilateral cleft lip surgery so that it could be represented by an objective number. Purpose: This study aims to observe the surgery results using Millard I and Tennison techniques in unilateral cleft lip patients. Methods: This study used descriptive study by observing the symmetry of lateral philtrum height, vermillion height, cupid’s bow width, cupid’s bow height, and nostril width after labioplasty using the Millard and Tennison technique in unilateral cleft lip patients in Surabaya, Madura, and Malang. Results: The results of the CLCSI modification for the Millard technique can be summarized that nostril width ranged from 78.82 - 195.04. Lateral philtrum height ranged from 62.5 - 107.62. Cupid’s bow width ranged from 72.17 - 155.29. Cupid’s bow height ranged from 96.43 - 487.5. Vermilion height ranged from 84.62 - 131.11. The results of the CLCSI modification for the Tennison technique can be summarized that nostril width ranged from 88.89 - 171.43. Lateral philtrum height ranged from 48.92 - 109.04. Cupid’s bow width ranged from 89.26 - 166.15. Cupid’s bow height ranged from 73.81 - 311.11. Vermilion height ranged from 72.14 - 138.46. Conclusion: It’s difficult to obtain completely symmetrical surgical results because of many factors that affect the outcome of the operation in both Millard I and Tennison methods.

Abstract

Background: Depending on the disparity seen, orthodontic treatments frequently take into account the possibility of tooth extraction or non-extraction. Class II Angle malocclusion cases are the specific emphasis of this study, whereas Class I Angle malocclusion patients were the focus of earlier research. Purpose: Examining how tooth extraction and non-extraction therapies affect arch length in patients with Class II Angle malocclusion is the goal. Method: Arch length was measured using pre- and post-treatment models of individuals with Class II Angle malocclusion who had extraction and nonextraction treatments. To find out if there were any notable variations, the collected data was analyzed. Results: The maxillary and mandibular arch lengths in the extraction group were significantly different before and after orthodontic treatment (p<0.05). Likewise, the the widths of the mandibular and maxillary arches before and after orthodontic treatment were significantly different (p<0.05). The maximum and arch length in the non-extraction group had a signifiant different before and after orthodontic treatment (p<0.05). Conclusion: the sagittal arch length decreased in both extraction and nonextraction treatments, the arch width decreased in extraction treatments, and the arch width increased in non-extraction treatments. In patients with Class II malocclusion, there are notable changes in the sagittal arch width and length before and after orthodontic treatment, whether extraction or non-extraction. Compared to the non-extraction treatment group, the extraction treatment group experienced more substantial alterations in sagittal arch length and width.

Abstract

Background: Ameloblastoma is a neoplastic odontogenic tumor that has a local invasive characteristic. The current treatment for ameloblastoma requires a precise surgical resection and chemotherapy. It requires a different approach to diminish the therapy drawbacks. Curcumin, as one of the most common well-described compounds, remarkably has a potential antitumor agent. Method: Our findings and opinions are based on a comprehensive search through scientific resources and correspondingly relating all the keywords using the Boolean technique and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) term search to find the interest study. Review: By understanding curcumin and its target genes, curcumin itself can induce regulation of tumor suppression and oncogenic microRNA. MiR-9 has proven to be expressed for modulating the mutation genes causing tumorogenesis in ameloblastoma. Curcumin also upregulates miR-9, causing cytotoxic activity against cancers in many proven studies. Conclusion: The highly expressed miR-9 curcumin-mediated ameloblastoma inhibition will be the new insight and adjunct cancer therapy.

Abstract

Background: Craniofacial morphological variations can influence malocclusion. Mesocephalic head tends to form mesoprosopic face and class I malocclusion. Dolicocephalic head tends to form leptoprosopic face and class II malocclusion. Brachycephalic head tends to form euryprosopic face and class III malocclusion. Emphasizing the importance of malocclusion early treatment, research on malocclusion prevalence and craniofacial morphology variations in growing children is needed. Purpose: To determine malocclusion prevalence and craniofacial morphological variations among 7-13-year-old children at Medowo III Elementary School, Kediri. Methods: This descriptive study used 44 samples of Medowo III Elementary School, Kediri students. Head and face length and width were measured using a spreading caliper. The cephalic and facial indices were then determined for the classification of head and facial types. Results: The dominant craniofacial morphological variations in the samples were hyper-brachycephalic head (39 samples) and euryprosopic face (14 samples). The highest prevalence of malocclusion among individuals with hyper-brachycephalic head type was Angle’s class I malocclusion. Class II malocclusion was found in 1 sample, and class III malocclusion in 3 samples. Among the samples with this head type, the most common malocclusion variations were anterior crowding (36 samples), followed by deep bite (15 samples). Conclusion: The highest prevalence of malocclusion among Medowo III Elementary School, Kediri students was Angle class I malocclusion, characterized by specific craniofacial morphological variations, namely hyper-brachycephalic head type and euryprosopic face.

Abstract

Background: When teeth are not positioned correctly, it is referred to as malocclusion, and it frequently happens in the general population. One of the traits of malocclusion that is frequently observed in children beginning in the early mixed dentition phase is crowded teeth. This disorder will become more serious and cause speech, masticatory, and cosmetic issues if therapy is not started right away. Environmental and genetic factors have a significant impact on malocclusion. Therefore, a child's nutrition, bad habits, trauma to the main teeth, and the pattern acquired from both parents will all affect the malocclusion's characteristics. Purpose: Enhance instruction in identifying malocclusion and the stages of permanent and changing tooth growth. Methods: Forty-six students from Madrasah Tsanawiyah's classes 7A and 7B participated. Intraoral examinations and the completion of pretest and posttest questionnaires were used to collect data. Next, Stastical Package Social Science (SPSS) version 23 was used to analyze the frequency distribution data. Results: Male students had more crowded teeth (20) and less crowded teeth (2) than female students (18) and less crowded teeth (6). Class I malocclusion (41), class II malocclusion (3), and class III malocclusion (2) are the highest. Conclusion: Malocclusion class I is characterized by the greatest number of crowded teeth in males aged 8 to 10 years.

Abstract

Background: Radiography is essential in dentistry for diagnosis and treatment planning, with two-dimensional imaging such as panoramic and periapical radiographs being commonly used. The advancement to three-dimensional imaging, specifically Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), provides more detailed visualization but remains underutilized due to limited availability and knowledge among dentists in Indonesia. Purpose: This research is aimed to determine the knowledge and experience of using 2D and 3D diagnostic imaging among dentists in Surabaya. Methods: This research is using an observational descriptive study with a cross-sectional design consisting of 100 dentists who are domiciled in Surabaya and registered with PDGI in Surabaya. Results: The result showed that dentists’ knowledge of 2D diagnostic imaging with a good category has a percentage of 18%, quite good category with 49% and poor category with 33%. Meanwhile, the dentists’ knowledge of 3D diagnostic imaging with a good category has a percentage of 9%, quite good category with 36% and poor category with 55%. Around 88% of respondents have referred their patients for panoramic and periapical radiographs, while only about 22% of dentists have referred their patients for CBCT examinations. Conclusion: The knowledge of dentists regarding 2D diagnostic imaging is quite good, while the knowledge of dentists regarding 3D diagnostic imaging is low. The majority of dentists in Surabaya often refer their patients for panoramic and periapical radiographic examinations compared to referring them for CBCT examinations.
