Abstract

Background: Electric cigarette which contained nicotine affected bad impact to oral cavity, since the nicotine contained on e-liquid electric cigarette could reduce function of salivary gland. This condition decreases the salivary flow rate and increase salivary viscosity. could impact to less activity of self-cleansing and antimicrobial of saliva. Objectives: To prove the difference of salivary viscosity and salivary flow rate on nicotine electric smokers and non-smokers. Methods: This research was an analytic descriptive research which exerted cross sectional research design. As many as 60 people were selected to be the research subjects who were then divided into 30 electric smokers and 30 non-smokers. The saliva on each subject was collected in a beaker cup stimulated for 8 minutes, and continued to the viscosity measurement to be valued both visually and subjectively. The data was analyzed through Mann-Whitney test to identify the difference between viscosity and salivary flow rate on nicotine electric smokers and non-smokers. Results: The result of Mann-Whitney test showed a significant difference between salivary flow rate (p<0,05) and salivary viscosity of nicotine electric smokers and non-smokers (p<0,05). Conclusion: This research indicated the difference of viscosity and salivary flow rate between electric smokers and non-smokers. The electric smokers have thicker viscosity and lower flow rate compared to the non-smokers.

Abstract

Background: Disinfection of alginate impressions is performed to prevent cross-infection. Alginate possesses properties of imbibition and syneresis which affect the dimensional stability of the impression. The disinfectant solution, hypochlorous acid (HOCl), is non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-corrosive at the appropriate concentrations. Hypochlorous acid has higher antimicrobial activity than sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of spraying 0.01% and 0.02% HOCl with contact durations of 1 and 5 minutes on the dimensional stability of alginate impressions. Methods: This was a laboratory experimental study with a Post-Test Only Control Group Design. A total of 24 samples were divided into 4 treatment groups and 2 control groups. The dimensional stability of the alginate impressions was assessed by the difference in anteroposterior and mediolateral dimension measurements between the master model and the resulting gypsum casts, using a digital caliper. Measurements were taken 3 times by 3 different observers, followed by a two-way ANOVA statistical test. Results: The results of the two-way ANOVA test showed no significant difference between the groups with variations in concentration or contact duration. The largest dimensional difference was found in the control group sprayed with 5.25% NaOCl. Conclusion: Spraying alginate impressions with 0.01% and 0.02% HOCl with contact durations of 1 and 5 minutes does not affect the dimensional stability of the alginate impressions.

Abstract

Coffee can cause discoloration in the hard tissues of teeth due to the presence of chlorogenic acid, which acts as a staining agent. Different types of coffee bean compositions have varying levels of staining agents. This study aims to investigate the influence of coffee bean composition (100% Arabica, 70%-30% Arabica-Robusta blend, 50%-50% Arabica-Robusta blend, and 100% Robusta) on the severity of tooth discoloration. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test control group design to assess the effect of coffee immersion on tooth color change (ΔE). The study involved 24 human premolar tooth samples divided into four treatment groups. Before treatment, the color of the samples was measured (pre-test data), and then the samples were immersed in a coffee solution for 48 hours. After immersion, the color of the samples was measured again (post-test data). Paired t-tests were conducted to determine the significance of differences between pre-test and post-test treatment. Subsequently, Kruskal-Wallis tests were performed to assess the significance of differences among the four treatment groups. Paired t-tests for all groups showed significant results (p < 0.05). Kruskal-Wallis tests indicated a significant difference among the four treatment groups (p < 0.05), with the highest tooth color change (ΔE) observed in the 100% Robusta coffee treatment group and the lowest color change in the 100% Arabica coffee treatment group. The composition of coffee bean types has an impact on the severity of tooth discoloration.

Abstract

The wound healing process of traumatic injuries in the oral cavity involves four stage: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Fibroblast cells are essential for the wound healing process, appearing on the 3rd day and reaching their peak on the 7th day after injury. This study reveals that bay leaf extract can accelerate wound healing process by mitigating inflammation and enhancing fibroblast cell activity. This research utilized a post-test only control group design. Fifteen male Wistar rats divided in 3 groups equally:  control group and 2 groups were given 5% and 10% of the bay leaf extract gel was applied twice a day until the 5th  day. The results indicated that the group treated with 10% bay leaf extract gel had significantly higher value compared to the control group and the group treated with 5% bay leaf extract gel. In this study, we can learn that bay leaf extract gel can increase of fibroblast cells in the ulcer healing process.

Abstract

Sex determination is a crucial aspect of forensic identification. This study investigates the capability of Sex determination is a crucial aspect of forensic identification. This study investigates the potential of antegonial (AGA) and gonial (GA) angle measurements on panoramic radiographs (PANs) for sex determination in an Indonesian population using logistic regression. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 300 PANs from individuals aged over 20 years, with measurements performed by two observers. Statistical analysis included independent sample t-test and logistic regression, with performance evaluated based on accuracy values. The t-test revealed significant differences in both AGA and GA between sexes. However, logistic regression yielded accuracy rates of 58% for AGA and 60.3% for GA, indicating that these variables alone are insufficient for reliable sex determination in the Indonesian population using PANs. Future studies should explore the inclusion of additional anthropometric variables from PANs to enhance the accuracy of mandibular-based sex determination methods.

Abstract

Dental caries incidence rate is still increasing. Therefore, research is needed to analyse dental risk factors. This study aimed to analyse dental caries risk factors in Indonesian school children. The study used a cross-sectional design and was conducted between March and April 2023 at SDN Mojo 1 Kediri, with participants in the age group 10-12 years. The questionnaire consisted of four main parts, including personal identity, demographics, oral health knowledge, oral hygiene habits, and the habit of consuming cariogenic foods. The intraoral examination (DMFT and deft index) was conducted after the questionnaire had been completed. The data were analysed using the SPSS software program with descriptive statistics and Spearman's Rho correlation test to determine the bivariate analysis between all variables. Knowledge of oral health, the habit of consuming cariogenic food, and the habit of maintaining oral hygiene were associated with the DMFT and deft index (p 0.05). This study revealed that the risk factors for dental caries in primary and permanent teeth in Indonesian school children, especially in rural areas, are the knowledge of oral health, the habit of consuming cariogenic food, and the habit of maintaining oral hygiene. At the same time, gender was not associated with the caries severity index, both in primary and permanent teeth.

Abstract

Latar Belakang: Radiografi periapikal merupakan alat pencitraan penting dalam praktik endodontik karena kemampuannya menampilkan anatomi saluran akar dan jaringan periapikal secara rinci, dengan biaya rendah dan dosis radiasi minimal. Meskipun teknologi pencitraan seperti Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) telah berkembang pesat dan menawarkan visualisasi tiga dimensi yang lebih lengkap, radiografi periapikal tetap menjadi pilihan utama dalam praktik sehari-hari karena efektivitasnya yang tinggi dalam diagnosis dan evaluasi perawatan saluran akar (PSA). Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji secara sistematis pengaplikasian radiografi periapikal dalam PSA, serta membandingkan efektivitas dan ketelitiannya dengan CBCT sebagai teknologi pencitraan modern. Metode: Studi ini merupakan studi telaah literatur yang dilakukan selama 14 hari dengan penelusuran artikel melalui database PubMed dan ScienceDirect, menggunakan kata kunci yang relevan. Artikel yang dianalisis dipilih berdasarkan kriteria inklusi seperti tahun publikasi, relevansi topik, serta metodologi yang sesuai. Hasil: Hasil telaah menunjukkan bahwa radiografi periapikal sangat efektif digunakan dalam tahap diagnosis, penentuan panjang kerja, evaluasi obturasi, dan tindak lanjut pasca PSA. Meskipun CBCT memberikan keunggulan dalam mendeteksi saluran aksesori, fraktur akar, dan lesi tersembunyi dengan sensitivitas lebih tinggi, teknologi ini memiliki kekurangan berupa biaya tinggi, dosis radiasi lebih besar, dan potensi overdiagnosis. Radiografi periapikal tetap menunjukkan reliabilitas tinggi bila digunakan dengan teknik yang benar. Kesimpulan: Radiografi periapikal efektif dalam seluruh tahap PSA dan tetap menjadi modalitas utama karena akurat, terjangkau, dan rendah radiasi. CBCT lebih unggul dalam kasus kompleks, namun penggunaannya harus selektif sesuai prinsip ALADA-IP. Pemilihan pencitraan sebaiknya disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan klinis, efektivitas, dan efisiensi biaya.

Abstract

Evaluating the count of X-rays in private dental clinics using extraoral digital X-ray in Kirkuk, Iraq, and its role in mass disasters—natural or man-made—assesses opportunities and barriers for use as antemortem data, especially in situations where other identification methods are impossible, excluded, or costly. The success of the identification process depends on the availability of well-preserved antemortem data and accessibility to that data. Three private dental centers in Kirkuk (Alpha1, Alpha2, Panoramic) were selected according to criteria such as use of the same digital X-ray equipment, availability of archived dental records, and consent for participation and site access.Data was collected from 2022 to 2024: only Alpha1 center was operational from August 1, 2022. Scan counts were 391, 305, and 345 annually, with steady population growth (1.05M → 1.10M). By 2025, in addition to Alpha1, Alpha2 and Panoramic centres were operating. Data collected until May 1, 2025, showed scan records reaching 1,668 — a 383% increase from 2024. There was a positive percentage change. The cumulative total number of scans reached 2,709. The cumulative percentage was 0.245 compared to the city center population of 1,128,000. Limitations of this study include a small sample size, lack of assessment of actual performance in a real disaster victim identification event, and the early start date of Alpha2 and Panoramic centres, so their data reflect only the initial implementation phase.The total number of X-rays represents a reference that can be used as antemortem data for disaster victim identification, especially in Kirkuk, Iraq. Availability of medical imaging infrastructure can directly and rapidly increase the amount of stored data and service provision, which is a vital resource during mass casualty events requiring disaster victim identification.
