Abstract

Background: Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is a significant health problem. Untreated ECC can have substantial impacts on individuals and communities, causing pain, disrupting functions, hindering the child's growth process, affecting the child's weight, and influencing the child's developmental progress, ultimately reducing the quality of life for the child. Preventive efforts for untreated ECC include activities such as ECC screening, allowing for prompt intervention in cases of untreated ECC. Non-dental health personnel, such as community health workers, are alternative resources that can be empowered to participate in screening for untreated ECC using pufa Index. Purpose: to analyze the level of validity and reliability of community health workers in conducting screening for untreated ECC using the pufa index. Methods: The research design involves diagnostic testing with a cross-sectional approach, and samples are taken from children in community health posts using simple random sampling. The study is conducted in the working area of the Sijunjung Health Center, Sijunjung District, West Sumatra. Results: The reliability of cumulative PUFA examinations by Community health workers with a Kappa value of 0.88 is considered a very strong level of agreement. The sensitivity and specificity values of cumulative PUFA are 96% and 94%, respectively, which indicate excellent diagnostic values. This means that Community health workers demonstrate a very strong level of agreement and excellent accuracy in diagnosing untreated ECC using the PUFA index in young children. Conclusion: Community health workers have great potential to be empowered as personnel for screening untreated ECC using pufa index.

Abstract

Introduction: Malocclusion is one of the most common dental and oral health issues encountered in the community, with a prevalence of up to 80% of the population. Some patients prefer malocclusion treatment using devices that are removable by the patient, easy to clean, and relatively affordable. Removable orthodontic appliances have been proven effective in correcting simple dental malocclusions, resulting in well-aligned teeth, improved facial aesthetics, and stable long-term outcomes. Case Report: A 23-year-old male patient visited RSGM Unand to align his teeth. Clinical examination revealed anterior diastema in the upper jaw and crowding in the lower anterior jaw. He had a Class I Angle molar relationship and a Class I canine relationship with an overjet of 2.4 mm and an overbite of 2.3 mm. Management: The patient was treated with a removable orthodontic appliance with several active components, including a labial bow, T- springs, and Z-springs. Follow-up appointments were conducted once a week. After 11 follow-up sessions, the malocclusion was corrected. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the success of treatment using a removable orthodontic appliance, which improved the patient's stomatognathic function and aesthetics.

Pengobatan penyakit periodontal adalah dengan menghilangkan bakteri patogen dan peradangan. Siwak dan daun sirih merupakan senyawa yang memiliki manfaat seperti antibakteri, antiseptik, dan antiinflamasi sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai agen yang berpotensi mencegah penyakit periodontal. Tujuan: Melakukan kajian integratif mengenai potensi siwak dan daun sirih terhadap bakteri patogen periodontal. Metode: Referensi didapat dari jurnal, textbook, dan website yang diakses melalui database Google Scholar, Science Direct, EBSCO, dan PubMed. Jenis referensi yang diambil berupa studi pustaka dan laporan penelitian dengan berfokus pada adalah sifat antibakteri siwak dan daun sirih dibandingkan berdasarkan zona hambat dan skor plak. Pembahasan: Siwak mampu menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri dan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan luas zona hambat antara siwak dengan konsentrasi 3,125%, 6,25%, 12,5%, 25%, 50% dan kontrol Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) 5% dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri A. actynomycetemcomitans. Hasil uji aktivitas antibakteri daun sirih terhadap bakteri P. gingivalis, zona hambat terbesar bakteri dihasilkan pada konsentrasi sebesar 10% (10.76 ± 0,47) dan masing-masing zona hambat menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan. Penggunaan pasta gigi yang mengandung siwak dan pasta gigi yang mengandung daun sirih memiliki potensi menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri patogen periodontal karena memiliki manfaat sebagai antibakteri, antiseptik, antiinflamasi, dan antiplak. Pasta gigi yang mengandung siwak lebih unggul dalam menurunkan skor plak dan penghambatan bakteri dibandingkan pasta gigi yang mengandung daun sirih.
