ABSTRACTBackground: Gingival enlargement can be treated with periodontal therapy, starting with the initial phase therapy, which includes dental health education and scaling-root planing. When the enlargement persists after the initial treatment is carried out, a surgical procedure, namely gingivectomy, is needed.Method: A 22-year-old male patient came to RSGM UNIMUS complaining that his upper front gums appeared enlarged. The patient had been aware of the complaint since the examination during the scaling procedure two weeks ago. There was no pain in the enlarged gums, but they bled when brushing his teeth. The patient wanted to get treatment for his gums. The patient denied any relevant medical history and allergies.Outcome: The gingivectomy in this patient improved the gingiva appearance and lengthened the clinical crown on the upper anterior teeth.Conclusion: Gingivectomy was proven to be an effective surgical therapy to eliminate gingival enlargement and maintain the proportional gingival appearance, especially on the anterior teeth. However, considering the complexity of the case, more extensive mouth rehabilitation is required.

Background: A popular medicinal plant in Indonesia, red shoot leaves (Syzygium myrtifolium Walp) have been extensively explored for their biological activity and potential to promote hard tissue healing in tooth sockets after extraction. However, few studies have examined this potential. Analyzing the impact of red leaf extract with different solvents on alveolar bone repair in the post-extraction socket in Wistar rats was the aim of this investigation.Method: This study aimed to determine differences in the healing process of bone after tooth extraction. Conducted on 15 male Wistar rats (12 weeks old, weighing 150 – 200 grams). The experiment includes three groups: Group A (5 animals received a gel base as a negative control group), Group B: (5 animals received 2% n-hexane gel treatment of red shoot leaves) and Group C (5 animals received 2% extract ethanol gel of red shoot leaves, based on designated observation days 30. The assessment involves bone remodeling area o from radiograph.Outcome: The average alveolar bone density varies greatly, as indicated by the study's p value of 0.000 (p < 0.005). The group that had 2% n-hexane gel treatment for red shoot leaves had the highest average alveolar bone density. According to the results of the phytochemical screening test, the n-hexane extract included triterpenoid and steroids, but the ethanol extract contained flavonoids, tannins, and alkaloids. The findings of this study demonstrate that the use of solvents with varying polarity can have an impact on bone remodeling.Conclusion: The alveolar bone mineral density of Wistar rats following tooth extraction was increased by 2% n-hexane gel treatment of red shoot leaves.

Background: Cephalometric analysis plays a critical role in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The identification of anatomical landmarks from lateral cephalograms is crucial for assessing skeletal and dental relationships. Traditionally, cephalometric analysis is performed manually by orthodontists, which is time-consuming and susceptible to inter-observer variability. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in cephalometry has the potential to improve diagnostic efficiency and reduce errors. WEBCEPH is an AI-based cephalometric analysis software that automatically detects cephalometric landmarks, allowing for more accurate and efficient analysis compared to traditional manual methods. This study aims to assess the accuracy of AI-based cephalometric analysis using WEBCEPH compared to conventional cephalometric measurement.Method: This study analyzed 30 lateral cephalometric radiographs with good quality and no dental or craniofacial deformities. Each cephalogram was analyzed using both conventional and digital methods. The Stainer cephalometric skeletal, dental, and soft tissue analyses from both methods were compared using independent t-tests and Mann-whitney.Outcome: The statistical results indicate that there was no significant difference between conventional and digital methods for all Steiner cephalometric analysis. The WEBCEPH software demonstrated good agreement with conventional methods in cephalometric analysis.Conclusion: AI-based cephalometric analysis using WEBCEPH provides comparable accuracy to conventional methods, offering a reliable and efficient alternative for orthodontic diagnosis.
