Abstract

ASD (Atrial Septal Defect) is a congenital heart disease in the form of holes (defects) in the interatrial septum (septum between the right and left atrial cavity) due to failure of fusion that occurs during fetal interatrial septum. Septum does not close completely and allow blood to flow mixes the left and right atrium. The incidence is about 6.7% of all CHD in babies born alive. Patient 4-year-old girl with symptoms of multiple caries and general condition of ASD. Mouth care preparation of maintenance actions in the form of preventive measures such as fillings, fissure sealants, scaling, root planing as well as curative measures such as extraction of teeth in pediatric patients prior to surgery on his heart abnormalities. Management in the field of dentistry is important to prevent bacterial endocarditis. The purpose of this paper was to discuss the handling of mouth preparation in ASD patients. In Conclusion, mouth preparation in patients with cardiac abnormalities of type ASD is necessary before surgery on his heart abnormalities.

Abstract

The development of forensic identification in dentistry is growing significantly to serve judicial system, there are teeth, lip prints, bite marks, dental arches, dental records, DNA, palatal rugae patterns, etc., which is called forensic odontology. Another forensics identification in dentistry is restoration material used in oral cavity. All of them are used in forensic identification for disaster victim identification, criminal and research. Differences of them are allowing fast and secure identification process, however, in some cases, these techniques can not always be applied which is necessary to apply different and less known techniques. This article reviews some of the useful palatal rugae patterns as forensic identification or rugoscopy by using gypsum dental cast. The palatine rugae is an interested forensic because of its typical pattern of orientation, number, position, and size which can be used to differ ethnicity or sex, and palatine rugae is permanent and unique to each person, so it can be used to assist the forensic odontologist in the identification of a person. In conclusion, palatine rugae is significant use in clinical and forensic purposes.

Abstract

Dental caries is the highest prevalence disease in many countries, it is shown by many studies have been performed to solve dental caries problem. Dental caries process had develop since the teeth are going to erupt in the mouth. However, it has been proved that not all food cause dental caries. Milk product which has high milk protein such casein and calcium, could prevent demineralization. By its ion calcium penetration in soluble enamel, the remineralization process will happen. It make a biofilm coated with calcium phosphoprotein and amorph calcium phosphate formation that formed along milk digestion. So it has a possibility to become an alternative food to prevent dental caries, as anticariogenic and cariostatic agent. As examples, human breast milk, bovine milk, cheese, and yogurt that would be explained in this paper. In conclusion, milk product consumption without any sugar can inhibit caries development.

Abstract

Periodontal disease is an inflammation and degeneration of chronical dental support tissue, accumulative, and progressive that caused tooth loss. Periodontal disease is caused by bacteria that has an ability to activate host response to produce pro-inflammatory mediator. Pro-inflammatory mediator causes collagen fibers degradation or destruction in periodontal tissue. Collagen cross- link of peri odontal tissue would be broken down and released into serum, and then excreted through urine. Collagen cross-link is called pyridinium cross-link, such as pyridinoline, deoxypyridinoline, N-telopeptide, and C- telopeptide (ICTP). This study was to investiga te the level in gingival crevicular fluid as an indicator of alveolar bone resorption. This study used 24 subjects with periodontal disease and 6 healthy subjects. Dividing of periodontal disease was based on periodontal index and every subject had minimum 20 teeth in mouth. Gingival crevicular fluid was taken at mesial site of maxillary posterior tooth by paperpoint and was measured by ELISA technique. The result showedthat the lowest level of ICTP was in control group, and the highest level was in grade 3 periodontitis group. The level of ICTP increased followed by periodontal disease progression. The result of Kruskal- Wallis-H and Mann-Whitney-U test showed th at was significant difference in ICTP between subject with and without periodontitis (p<0.05). It can be concluded that ICTP level in gingival crevicular fluid can be used as indicator of alveolar bone resorption in periodont al disease subjects.

Abstract

Oral and respiratory diseases have been related with the fungal infections like oral candidiasis caused by Candida albicans and chronic rhinitis caused by Aspergillus niger. Both of these micr oorganisms are including in flora normal in the oral and nasal cavity. Aspergillus niger is rarely reported as aeroalergen in allergy rhinitis cases, but in chronic rhinitis its fungals are A. flavus and A. fumingatus. The aim of this study was to analyze the risk factors that influencing rhinitis and oral candidiasis and its relation. This research used rhinitis mucous identified various fungal used pour plate method.And then, cultured with SDA medium (Sabauraud's Dextrose Agar) to identify fung als morphology usedcultured slide.The results showed that Aspergillus niger was found more dominant than A. fumingatus and A. flavus in chronic rhinitis.In conclusion, Aspergillus niger was proved as an aeroallergen had had an important role in chronic rhinitis a nd could trigger the growth of Candida albicans.

Abstract

Radical suproxide is a kind of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which causes oxidative damage by attacking biomolecules such as protein, lipid, DNA, etc. Over production of radical superoxide becomes a centre of the generation of other radical species and oxidants, and responsible for occurring many pathological processes. The main source of radical superoxide isto activate neutrophil. Therefore, it was speculated that induction of neutrophil by periodontitis bacteria Porphyromonas gingival is potential to induce superoxide production, only a few study, however concerned with this topic. This studyaimed to know the pathogenicity of P. gingivalis by demonstrating the potency of P. gingivalis metabolites to induce production of radical superoxide by neutrophil. This study was conducted experimentally in vitro using posttest onlydesign. Superoxide radical production was demostrated by means of Nitrobluetetrazolium (NBT) slide assay and spectro photometric. The results showed that P. gingivalis metabolites induced neutrophil to produce a large amount of radical superoxide both intra and extra cellular. Its radical superoxide production affected degranulation, apoptosis, and lysis of neutrophil. In conclusion, neutrophil responses against P. gingivalis generated prooxidative and toxic condition. This mechanism may explain the pathogenicity of P. gingivalis on many pathological processes.

Abstract

Chronic periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that causes a damage of tooth supporting tissues. The incidence of chronic periodontitis disease is highly reported in Indonesia .S urvey in Java, Bali and Sulawesi reported the incidence of chronic periodontitis for 35-44 years age group was 88.67%. This disease is a major cause of tooth loss for 35 years or more age group. The results of various studies was found many chronic periodontitis diseases are common in young age, therefore the genetic role in diseases is susceptible for chronic periodontitis. The aim study was to know if the mutation of the gene Nucleotide-Binding Oligomerization Domain 2 (NOD2) is a risk factors for chronic periodontitis. Total sample was 162 subject, 81 samples with chronic periodontitis and 81 without periodontal disease as control group. The results showed that there was 12,3 % of samples that had been mutation of NOD2 gene, and in the control group only 1,2 %, and statistical l y there was a significant difference ( p=0,005). In conclusion, mutation NOD2 gen is a risk factor to chronic periodontitis.

Abstract

The periodontopathogens Porphyromonas gingivalis may directly or indirectly attack the fetus by releasing toxins into the blood stream that could reach the placental and influence fetal development . This study aimed to determine the effect of periodontal infection with P. gingivalis on fetal development in pregnant rat model. Female rats were infected with live-P. gingivalis at concentration of 109colony forming unit/ml into subgingival sulcus before and/or during pregnancy. Group I: without P. gingivalis infection ; group II: P. gingivalis infection before and during pregnancy; group III: P. gingivalisinfection before pregnancy; and group IV: P. gingivalis infection during pregnancy. They were sacrified on gestational day 14 and 20. Fetuses were evaluated for weight and crown-tail length. The results showed that the dams infected with P.gingivalis significantly decrease the mean of fetal weights, lengths and placental weights compared with the control group (p<0.05). The percentages of fetal growth restriction at the time of sacrifice were 6.66, 100, 72.97 and 87.09% growthrestricted fetuses in group I, II, III, and IV, respectively. When weights of growth- restricted fetuses of the treated groups were compared with the control group there were significant differences (p<0.05). P. gingivalis was detected by API ZYM system in the blood of umbillical cord from the treated groups. In conclusion, in pregnant rat models, periodontal infection with P. gingivalis affects fetal development. The maternal P. gingivalis infection on periodontal tissue can result in P. gingivalis dissemination to umbillical cord and induction of FGR.
