Abstract

Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is a state of occurrence of decayed (cavities and non cavities), missing (due to caries), or filling on one or more deciduous teeth in children aged ≤ 71 months. Wayne (1999) divided the severity of ECC into three classifications based on clinical signs, causes, and age of the child namely type I (mild), type II (moderate), and type III (severe). The rate of caries incidence is increasing in children who consume milk using bottles. Clinical pattern to ECC caused by bottle feeding has a distinctive pattern, which is about four upper incisors, while four lower incisors usually remain healthy. This study aims to determine the correlation between the history and pattern of bottle feeding and the severity of ECC in children aged 3-5 years in Kuranji District, Padang City. This study is an analytical study with a cross sectional approach. The study sample consisted of 58 children aged 3-5 years with a history of bottle feeding for at least two years. Samples are selected through consecutive sampling technique. Data are collected using questionnaires and through examining respondents' oral cavity. Data collected are analyzed using Chi-Square Test. Statistical test result shown p < 0,15 for each pattern of bottle feeding duration in years, the time of bottle feeding, the addition of sweeteners, and preventive measures. P is valued as > 0,15 for bottle feeding method. There is a significant relationship between the history and the pattern of bottle feeding duration in years, the time of bottle feeding, the addition of sweeteners, and preventive measures with the severity of ECC in children aged 3-5 years in Kuranji District, Padang City.

Abstract

Background: The dental plaque becomes the main etiology of many hard and soft dental tissue’s problem. The dental plaque has a similar color with the teeth, it cannot be seen without a coloring agent. There are two types of coloring used, namely synthetic dyes and natural dyes. Anthocyanin is a natural coloring found in tamarillo that can be used to identify the dental plaque. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental method with post-test only one group design with independent t-test. The study was conducted in February 2019. Twelve samples were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The samples were given two times plaque examination, then the result were recorded in RKP (Plaque Control Record) form. The data analyzed by using SPSS. Results: The average score of plaque control with disclosing solution was 26.93%, while the plaque control score with tamarillo extract was 20.02%. Bivariate test results obtained p=0.037 (p<0.05) which means there is a significant difference between the plaque control scores using disclosing solution and plaque control with tamarillo extract. Conclusion: Tamarillo extract cannot be used in the identification of dental plaque, because the color intensity is not as good as the use of disclosing solution.
