Abstract

Background: Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is one of the most common dental and oral diseases occurring in children aged 48-71 months. Several factors can influence the occurrence of dental caries in children, one of which is the consumption of cariogenic foods that easily stick to teeth. These foods are fermented by certain bacteria to form acids, which can lead to plaque formation and damage tooth structures if left unchecked for an extended period. Objective: To examine the influence of cariogenic dietary patterns and dental and oral hygiene habits on ECC in children aged 48-71 months at Kumara Bhuana Saraswati Kindergarten, Klungkung. Materials and Methods: This research employs a quantitative study design with an analytical cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling. The study involved 67 pairs of parents and their children (aged 48-71 months) from Kumara Bhuana Saraswati Kindergarten, Klungkung. Results: This study indicate a correlation with a p-value of <0.05 between the consumption of cariogenic foods with dental and oral hygiene maintenance behavior, and between the consumption of cariogenic foods with incidence of ECC in children aged 48-71 months at Kumara Bhuana Saraswati Kindergarten, Klungkung. Conclusion: There is a significant influence of cariogenic dietary patterns and dental and oral hygiene maintenance behavior on the incidence of Early Childhood Caries (ECC) in children aged 48-71 months at Kumara Bhuana Saraswati Kindergarten, Klungkung. Efforts to reduce ECC cases should focus on promoting healthier dietary choices and improving dental and oral hygiene practices among children and their caregivers.

Abstract

Background: Local anesthesia is the first step before open method extraction. The local anesthesia contains 2% lidocaine and adrenaline in a 1:80,000 ratio to extend its duration and reduce the risk of toxicity. However, the use of vasoconstrictors may lead to a spike in blood pressure. Objective: To determine the difference in blood pressure before and after the administration of lidocaine + adrenaline in a 1:80,000 ratio for open method extraction at RSGM Nala Husada Surabaya. Materials and Methods: Blood pressure was measured before and after the administration of local anesthesia containing lidocaine + adrenaline in a 1:80,000 ratio for open method extraction, following the inclusion criteria with a sample size of 21. Blood pressure was measured using an "Omron HEM-FL31" digital sphygmomanometer. Data analysis was performed using a paired t-test. Results: The paired t-test results showed a significant difference in systolic blood pressure (p<0.05), but no significant difference in diastolic blood pressure (p>0.05) before and after the administration of local anesthesia for open method extraction patients. The systolic blood pressure showed the highest value after the administration of local anesthesia (122.95 ± 14.59). Conclusion: Blood pressure showed a significant difference before and after the administration of local anesthesia containing lidocaine + adrenaline in a 1:80,000 ratio for open method extraction at RSGM Nala Husada Surabaya.

Abstract

Background: One of the pathological conditions in the mouth that affects periodontal tissue is periodontitis. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a potential trigger of periodontal disease if allowed to settle, multiply, and express virulence factors. The pharmacological activity of Syzygium myrtifolium based on solvent extract has several functions, one of which is antibacterial. Solvents function to attract compounds or active ingredients in natural materials, and solvents are distinguished based on their polarity. Water is very polar, so it will attract compounds or active ingredients that are very polar, while ethanol is polar, so it will attract active substances/compounds that are polar. So that later it can be known how both perform. Objective: This study aims to determine the activity of water and ethanol extracts of Syzygium myrtifolium Walp. 10%, 20%, 40%, and 80% in inhibiting the growth of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans bacteria. Materials and Methods: This study is a laboratory experiment. Ethanol extract of Syzygium myrtifolium Walp. was partitioned to obtain a water extract of Syzygium myrtifolium Walp. A  disc diffusion method on Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) media was the antibacterial test method used in this study (n=4). Metronidazole 50 µg was used as a positive control and DMSO 2% as a negative control. Results: The average inhibition zone of ethanol extract was 9.11 mm, 11.475 mm, 13.625 mm, and 15.2875 mm, respectively, while the water extract was 10.3125 mm, 13.25 mm, 14.725 mm, and 16.725 mm, respectively. Positive control 22.975 mm and negative control 0 mm. Conclusion: Water and ethanol extracts of Syzygium myrtifolium Walp. have antibacterial activity against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans.

Abstract

Background: Deep caries not treated immediately can cause more severe damage and loss of tooth vitality. Ca(OH)2 and MTA are often used as vital pulp treatment materials, but both have limitations. Therefore, alternative materials are needed. Hydroxyapatite is a major component of bones and teeth forms reparative dentin without tunnel defects, while theobromine has been shown to have a better anti-cariogenic effect than fluoride. The combination of both can be a choice for vital pulp treatment. Therefore, conducting cytotoxicity and cell proliferation tests is important to ensure safety and determine whether the material can induce cell proliferation. Objective: To determine the toxicity and proliferation of hydroxyapatite theobromine on human dental pulp stem cells. Materials and Methods: The toxicity assessment of hydroxyapatite with theobromine formulation on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSC) was a laboratory experimental study (in vitro) carried out using a posttest control group design with the method used being the MTT assay. Results: The highest cell viability value was Ca(OH)2 122.08%, control cells 113.70%, HA/TB 2:1 108.03%, HA/TB 1:1 103.23%, HA/TB 1:2 102.09%, and the lowest was negative control 100%. The highest proliferation value was in control cells 138.00%, HA/TB 2:1 135.00%, HA/TB 1:2 129.64%, Ca(OH)2 128.38%, and HA/TB 1:1 122.11%, and the lowest cell proliferation value was in the negative control at 100%. This shows that the higher the hydroxyapatite value compared to theobromine, the greater the percentage value. Conclusion: Theobromine hydroxyapatite formulation is non-toxic, so it has potential as a vital pulp treatment ingredient, but it is less effective in inducing cell proliferation.

Abstract

Background: Acrylic resin dentures are frequently reported to experience damage within a few years after fabrication. Intraorally, repeated masticatory forces can lead to fatigue failure and fracture, while high extraoral impact forces, such as accidental drops, may also lead to fractures of the denture base. Objective: To determine the optimal concentration of glass fibers reinforcement that provides the highest values of impact strength, transverse strength, and hardness in acrylic resin. Materials and Methods: A total of 48 acrylic resin samples were divided into four groups based on glass fiber concentration: 0%,6%,9%, and 12%. Each group was tested for impact strength, transverse strength, and hardness. Samples dimension for impact strength: 65 mm x 10 mm x 2.5 mm, 80 mm x 10 mm x 4 mm for transverse strength, and tube-shaped with a diameter of 5 mm and a thickness of 3 mm for hardness test. Testing equipment for impact strength: Charpy testing machine (Resil Impactor Ceast 6958.000), Universal Testing Machine (Shimadzu AGS-X 10kN for transverse strength, and Vickers machine (HMV-G) for hardness test. Results: The highest impact strength was observed in the group with 0% glass fibers. Meanwhile, the addition of 12% glass fibers exhibited the highest transverse strength exhibited and the highest hardness was achieved in samples containing 6% glass fibers. Conclusion: The addition of 12% glass fiber enhances the transverse strength of acrylic resin but decreases impact strength. Meanwhile, adding 6% glass fiber improves the hardness of acrylic resin.
