Abstract

Sekretori IgA (SIgA) adalah salah satu kelas andibodi yang terdapat dalam saliva, yang dihasilkan dalam bentuk dimerikIgA oleh sel plasma lokal (PCs) pada stroma glandula saliva dan kemudian ditransportasi melalui epitel sekretori olehpolimer Ig reseptor (pIgR), yang disebut juga dengan membran komponen sekretori (SC). Pada permukaan mukosaSIgA bersama dengan mukus akan mengekslusi antigen-antigen. Tujuan penulisan artikel ini adalah untuk menjelaskanperan SIgA dalam meningkatkan pertahanan mukosa mulut terhadap bakteri patogen Streptokokus mutans. Bakteri inimerupakan penyebab utama terjadinya karies gigi, karena kemampuannya untuk melekat pada permukaan gigi, yangmemungkinkan terbentuknya kolonisasi pada permukaan gigi melalui pembentukan biofilm. Perlekatan Streptokokusmutans ini akan dihambat oleh SIgA dengan mengintervensi protein perlekatan bakteri yang disebut Ag I/II. Hal inimemungkinkan SIgA untuk mencegah perlekatan bakteri pada permukaan, sehingga dapat mencegah inisiasi terjadinyakaries gigi. Sebagai kesimpulan, sekresi SIgA saliva terhadap Ag I/II Streptokokus mutanstelah terbukti dapat mencegahkolonisasi bakteritersebut dirongga mulut manusia

Abstract

Smoking habit has many negative effects towardswomen’s systemic and oral health. One of them are decrease of salivary flow rate and an appearance of pigmentation lesion in gingiva. The aim of this research is to obtain data regarding salivary flow rate and pigmentation lession on women smokers.This descriptive research used 50 samples by simple random sampling method. The salivary flow rate data was obtained by spitting method and the pigmentation lesion data was described by visual method. The other data wasobtained through filling the questionnaire. By the findings of this research, it was found that the mean value of salivary flow rate and pigmentation lession of women smokerswho consumed1-8 cigarettes per day for 1-2, 2-5 and > 5 years were 0.4 ml/min & 51,7%, 0.4 ml/min & 100%, 0.4 ml/min & 100%. The mean value of salivary flow rate and pigmentation lession of women smokerswho consumed9-16 cigarettesper day for 1-2, 2-5 and > 5 years were 0.4 ml/min & 100%, 0.4 ml/min & 100%, 0.4 ml/min & 90%. The mean value of salivary flow rate and pigmentation lession of women smokerswho consumed>16 cigarettes per day for 1-2, 2-5 and > 5 years were 0.3 ml/min & 100%, 0.2 ml/min & 100%, 0.2 ml/min & 100%. The conclusion shows that salivary flow rate on women smokers has a lower value compared to normal salivary flow rate or its called oligosialia and most of the subjects have

Abstract

Patients who are undergoing antithrombotic drugs therapy whether it was alone or in combination can increase the bleeding complications after performed minor oral surgery or tooth extraction. If the termination of using antithrombotic drugs to prevent bleeding isn’t right, it’ll trigger thrombosis. Therefore appropriate consideration is needed in the management of patients undergoing antithrombotic drug therapy that requires minor oral surgery or dental extraction. The purpose of this literature review is to examine management of minor oral surgery and dental extraction procedure in patients with antithrombotic drugs. Management of minor oral surgical procedures and tooth extraction in patients using antithrombotic drugs must be adjusted to the type of antithrombotic drugs used by the patient. Patients who use antithrombotic drugs are advised to undergo minor oral surgery or tooth extraction treatment in the morning or on weekends. Local hemostatic agent has been shown to be effective to stop bleeding locally on minor oral surgical procedure or tooth extraction in patients undergoing antithrombotic drug therapy alone or in combination.

Abstract

Porphyromonas gingivalis is an anaerobic Gram-negative oral bacterium involved in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Periodontitis is an infection that is characterized by damage to the supporting tissues of the teeth so that it can cause tooth loss if not given treatment. P. gingivalis locally can invade periodontal tissue and avoid host defense mechanisms. This bacterium has virulence factors which can cause deregulation of innate immune responses and inflammation in the host. The role of P. gingivalis virulence factors such as capsules, fimbriae, lipopolysaccharides, and gingipain in the pathogenesis of periodontitis will be discussed in this paper.

Abstract

It is important to understand pulp canal configuration to have a successful endodontic treatment. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) radiography is able to assess the pulp canal configuration, especially on the lingual/palatal, compared to the periapical radiography. The objective of the research is to know the prevalence pulp canal configuration of mandibular molar teeth in Indonesia subpopulation Mongoloid race using CBCT radiography. This research is a descriptive survey with a cross-sectional approach, using 38 CBCT radiographs from the patients undergoing dental treatments in hospitals in Medan. The subjects were selected based on research criteria; then their CBCT radiographs were interpreted and analyzed. The result shows the existence of mandibular mesial root type 2-1 (28.94%), 1-2-1 (5.26%), 2-2 (55.26%), 2-1-2-1 (2.64%), 3-2 (5.26%), 3-1 (2.64%), distal root type 1-1 (36.84%), 2-1 (23.68%), 1-2-1 (15.79%), 1-2 (2.63%), 2-2 (13.17%), 2-1-2-1 (5.26%), 1-3-1 (2.63%). The distolingual root of mandibular first molars consisted of type 1-1 (100%).  Mesial root of mandibular second molars of type 1-1 (2.63%), 2-1 (50%), 1-2-1 (5.26%), 2-2 (36.85%), 2-1-2-1 (2.63%), 1-2-1-2 (2.63%), distal root type 1-1 (57.89%), 2-1 (15.79%), 1-2-1 (13.16%), 2-2 (10.53%), 2-1-2 (2.63%). This variation of the pulp canal can be influenced by the shape of roots. A flat root usually contains pulp canal configuration type II – VIII Vertucci, similarly to mandibular molar mesial canals. As a summary, there is a variation of pulp canal configuration in mandibular first and second molars on Indonesian Mongoloid race, as seen from the CBCT radiographs.

Abstract

In performing the orthodontic treatments, patients aim to improve their smile esthetical features which are influenced by the position, size, shape, and color of teeth. However, in recent decades, several aesthetical features that have been studied are buccal corridor, smile arc, incisor display, and gingival display. In this study, 32 subjects composed of 16 males and 16 females were photographed from the front-site by using a DSLR camera within smiling states. Smile arc and buccal corridor measurements were performed via Corel Draw 12 program. The extra broad and broad characteristics were found in male subjects which were 31.2% and 18.8% respectively, while the female subjects had a higher broad proportion of 43.7% and extra broad for 6.3%. The smile arc features in male subjects were found were straight smile (34.4%) and consonant smile (15.6%), in contrast, the percentage of the female students had a higher consonant smile (31.3%) than straight smile (18.8%). This study confirmed similar findings regarding the domination of the buccal corridor broad in the female population, whereas the extra broad is dominated by males. By contrast, the smile arc consonant is dominated by females, while the straight feature is dominated by males.

Abstract

Panoramic radiographs can be used to detect temporomandibular morphology and condylar changes. This study shape-determines the female condyle in perimenopausal and postmenopausal using panoramic radiography. It used an observational survey technique with a sample of 80 people, consisting of 40 perimenopausal aged between 20 and 29, and 40 postmenopausal females aged over 52. The results on the perimenopausal condyle process obtained a round shape of 43.7%, an angle of 32.5%, and a pointed shape of 23.7%. Furthermore, the shape of the condylar process in postmenopause is 37.5% pointed, 30% angled, 25% round, and 7.5% flat. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test with a significance value of p<0.05. The results showed that changes in the size and shape of the condyles occur with age. There is a significant difference in the condyle shape between perimenopausal and postmenopausal periods.
