Abstract

Dental caries is a disease of hard tooth tissue in enamel, dentin and cementum, caused by bacterial activity that ferments carbohydrates leading to the dissolution of enamel due to acid produced by bacteria. Saliva contains protein, antibacterial, fluoride, calcium and phosphate ions that can protect teeth from caries. Balanced diet and adequate salivary flow will preserve to protect and maintain the health of hard tooth tissue. The caries process begins with Streptococcus mutants fermenting carbohydrates to form acids that produced a low pH of oral cavity. Low concentrated calcium in saliva can increase caries risk. The purpose of this study was to determine the volume, pH and saliva’s calcium level in caries and caries-free (control group) students of Fakultas Kedokteran Gigi Universitas Sumatera Utara. The research was an observational analytic study with cross-sectional design. The saliva studied was stimulated whole saliva taken from 46 subjects, 23 were caries and 23 were caries-free. Subjects were instructed to chew paraffin wax for 5 minutes and spitting the saliva into the pot. The examination to determine salivary volume was conducted in Laboratories of Oral Biology and Fakultas Farmasi Universitas Sumatera Utara. The result of this study showed the mean value of salivary volume in caries group is 3.55 ± 0.633 ml/5minutes and caries-free is 6.94 ± 1.482 ml/5 minutes, caries saliva pH 5.26 ± 0.219 and caries-free 6.68 ± 0.362, and calcium saliva caries 0.98 ± 0.310 mmol/L and caries-free 1.55 ± 0.312 mmol/L. There was a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the caries group and caries-free in volume, pH and salivary calcium levels. The conclusion of this research is the caries group has lower volume, pH and calcium level of saliva than non caries group.

Abstract

The facial appearance is as important as the occlusal relationship in any dental treatment. The chin that represents the largest segment of the lower third facial proportion for both sexes is overlooked when it comes to the aesthetic alteration of the face. Proper understanding about anatomical changes and chin artless movements, or in conjunction with formal orthognathic surgery, is paramount. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference of soft tissue chin (STC) thickness which was measured from skeletal Pogonion (Pog) to soft tissue pogonion (Pog’) in various mandibular patterns. The cephalograms lateral pretreatment of adult patients (≥21 years) that divided into three groups (hypo divergent, average, hyper divergent) were analyzed with one-Way Anova. Soft tissue chin (STC) thickness which was measured from skeletal Pogonion (Pog) to soft tissue pogonion (Pog’). Various mandibular pattern are based on mandibular plane inclination (MP) to anterior cranial base (SN) as normal value between 27°-37°. There were significant differences of soft tissue chin thickness in various mandibular pattern. Mandibular pattern might camouflage lower third of the face from soft tissue profile, especially pogonion as the most anterior point on the contour of the chin. The average of normal soft tissue chin thickness which 11.68±2.0mm (according to Holdaway) can be served as guidelines to predict the appearance of the chin, so that the multidisciplinary treatment approach, like genioplasty can be informed from the beginning in camouflage orthodontics treatment.

Abstract

Angular cheilitis (AC), an inflammation characterized by fissure lesion at corner of the mouth that extends to the skin referred to as mucocutaneous junction region. Subjective complaints from the potential patients such as pain when eating, talking, and also when cleaning oral cavity. The aim of this study was to know the profile and demographic data of angular cheilitis patients at Rumah Sakit Gigi dan Mulut Fakultas Kedokteran Gigi in 2016. The primary data was obtained from 159 medical records, which is the total sampling. The data collected consists of age, gender, BMI (Body Mass Index), oral hygiene, distribution of lesions and healing period. The results showed that distribution and frequency of angular cheilitis most commonly found in the age range 5-14 (88,7%), male gender (56,6%), BMI with underweight category (79,9%), oral hygiene with moderate category (58,5%), the most frequent distribution of lesions bilaterally (72,3%) and the healing time is more than 7 days (58%). It can be concluded that angular cheilitis can occur among children age group, with poor nutritional status and bad oral hygiene condition. This information is expected to be an input to the government that clinical descriptions of angular cheilitis in children, with BMI underweight, were clues to improve children’s nutritional status and it is required to make a comprehensive improvement to nutritional status and oral hygiene.

Abstract

Stevens–Johnson syndrome (SJS)/ Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are acute, self-limited, potentially life-threatening mucocutaneous disease. Oral mucosal involvement manifest as extensive erosions and haemorrhagic crusting, which can interfere oral functions causing odynophagia, inability to tolerate solid foods, and increased aspiration risk. A 40-year-old female patient was referred from Dermatology and Venereology department with diagnosis SJS/TEN overlap. The patient complained mouth opening difficulty due to mouth and lip sores. Drug history revealed positive intake of carbamazepine. Extraoral examination revealed multiple diffuse discrete facial lesions, conjunctival hyperemia, erosions and hemorrhagic crusting lips. Intraoral examination revealed white yellowish plaque, and erosions on buccal mucosa, palate, floor of the mouth, dorsal, ventral, and lateral tongue. Laboratory investigation revealed decrease of haemoglobin, hematocrite, Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH), thrombocyte, eosinophil, band of eosinophil, lymphocyte, natrium, potassium, and calcium. Oral lesions associated with SJS/TEN overlap diagnosis was made. Chlorhexidine gluconate 0,1%, nystatin oral suspension, vitamin B12, folic acid, and corticosteroid unguent compounding were given, which showed improvement of oral lesions in 3 weeks. SJS/TEN are the same disease spectrum of delayed hypersensitivity reaction leading to keratinocyte apoptosis through cytotoxic T-cell mediated Fas-Fas ligand, perforin/ granzyme B, and granulysin, which distinguished primarily by severity and percentage of total body surface area involved.Currently, an optimal treatment standard for SJS/TEN patients remains unavailable. Oral lesions management play significant role in enhancing patients’ quality of life and achieving better prognosis in SJS/TEN overlap patients through multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract

Scaffolds is three dimensional structure that serves as a framework for bone growth. Natural materials are often used in synthesis of bone tissue engineering scaffolds with respect to compliance with the content of the human body. Among the materials used to make scafffold was hydroxyapatite, alginate and chitosan. Hydroxyapatite powder obtained by mixing phosphoric acid and calcium hydroxide, alginate powders extracted from brown algae and chitosan powder acetylated from crab. The purpose of this study was to examine the functional groups of hydroxyapatite, alginate and chitosan. The method used in this study was laboratory experimental using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for hydroxyapatite, alginate and chitosan powders. The results indicated the presence of functional groups PO43-, O-H and CO32- in hydroxyapatite. In alginate there were O-H, C=O, COOH and C-O-C functional groups, whereas in chitosan there were O-H, N-H, C=O, C-N, and C-O-C. It was concluded that the third material containing functional groups as found in humans that correspond to the scaffolds material in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract

Mandibular fractures are less common in children compared to adults, due to a number of factors including the anatomical complexity of mandibular development in a child. This article aims to discuss the treatment’s principle of mandibular fractures differ from that of adults due to concerns regarding mandibular growth and development of dentition. A case of a 7-year old boy with fracture of the left mandibular corpus that sinistra region was treated with a closed reduction method using gunning splints with circumferential mandibular wires. On the sixth week after surgery, the circumferential mandibular wiring and splint were removed. From clinical examination there was no edema; no oral mucosal abnormalities were found; no teeth mobility; and no step displacement at corpus mandibular sinistra region. The treatment’s goal is to restore the structures from the broken bone to its pre-injury position as non-invasively as possible with minimal residual esthetic and functional impairment.

Abstract

Saliva is a biological fluid that is secreted by the major, minor and other accessories salivary glands. Saliva has a high potential as an indicator that reflects the health of our body. Saliva also plays an important role as a protector, lubricate oral structure with mucin, set a neutral pH through the buffer capacity, clean the oral cavity, stimulate wound healing, help the taste buds in the taste of food, facilitate the process of chewing food, form a bolus and make it easier swallowing, and minimize food particles through the activity of the enzyme amylase and lipase. The use of saliva as a biomarker in diagnosing provide more advantages than the serum and other body fluids due to using non-invasive techniques, cost-efficient, as well as methods for collecting samples for disease screening without the need to train professional personnel. The benefits derived from the saliva as a biomarker are early detection and screening of disease to the development of caries, periodontal disease, tumors and malignancy, hereditary, wound healing, autoimmune disease, infectious diseases, cardiovascular diseases, drug monitoring, forensic, and the psychological influence. At this time, the function of saliva as a diagnostic biomarker is not widely known, therefore the development of salivary further enhance because it can produce functional similarities with serum and reflect the body's physiological status in the oral cavity and systemic disease.

Abstract

Informed consent is a communication process between doctors and patients pertaining an agreement about medical treatments performed by doctors to their patients then continued by signing informed consent form. It originates from the legal and ethical right the patient has to direct what happens to her body and from the ethical duty of the physician to involve the patient in her health care. The most important goal of informed consent is that the patient has an opportunity to be an informed participant in his health care decisions. Informed consent usually also protects doctor from liability (with exceptions) provided that the procedure is properly execute according to the prevailing standard of care without negligence. Approval for informed consent must be based on medical information regarding the disease from the relevant medical doctors. This matter is regulated in Article 45 of Law 29 of 2004 about medical practices. It can be concluded that an informed consent is one of legal efforts in protecting patients from medical neglect that medical doctors commited.
