Abstract

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune rheumatic disease that involves extensive inflammation of the bone regions. Studies showed that the long-term medication in SLE patientsaffects the quantity and quality of bones.This should be considered in any treatment administered, including dental treatment. This study was conducted to analyze mandibular cortical bone loss in SLE patients with 2D panoramic radiography and 3D Cone Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT). The research was a cross-sectional study to measure 31 SLE Indonesian female outpatients in Internal Medicine Installationat Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung in 2014. The mean age is 37.65±10.79 years with 5.23 ± 4.37 mg corticosteroid intake history for 2–20 years. There was a significant correlation in the mandibular cortical loss analyzed by 3D CBCT imaging based on corticosteroid dosage (p=0.026). In conclusion, the level of mandibular cortical bone loss observed by panoramic radiography was moderate while 3D CBCT imaging showed a severe level of loss in this study.

Abstract

Drug abuse influences the pathological of oral diseases. There are scarce evidence-based data on the oral manifestations related to drug abuse. This systematic review aim to assess the oral manifestations related to drug abuse. Electronic databases were searched using keywords include oral manifestations and drug abuse. Observational studies published until September 2018 with the outcome of oral manifestations related to drug abuse were included. Data were extracted as percentage include drug type, route of administration, and oral manifestations. Study quality was assessed using the quartile score of Scopus index. The systematic review of 17 studies revealed that methamphetamine (53%), heroin (41%), cannabis (35%), and cocaine (35%) were the most frequent abused drugs from 10139 samples. The routes of administration include smoking (58%),inhalation (35%), injection (35%), and oral route (17%), with duration of use ranged from one year to forty years. The most significant of oral manifestations reported were periodontal diseases (76%), dental caries (76%), and xerostomia (41%). Adverse drug reaction in oral cavity may cause, directly or indirectly, immunosuppression, susceptibility to infections, and oral pathologies due to chemical composition and mechanism of action specifically to drug type related with duration of use and route of administration.

Abstract

Elderly is a natural process where changes in body tissue function include changes in oral tissues such as dry mouth, pale mucosa, mucosal thinning, attrition, and tooth loss. Maintaining the health of the oral cavity is one way to maintain body condition for the elderly. This study aims to determine the knowledge and behavior of oral health and oral health status in the elderly and its implications for general health. This study is an analytical study with a cross sectional approach, taking research subjects by purposive sampling and obtained 40 elderly people. The results showed that the average oral health status with poor criteria (DMF-T = 11,725; OHIS> 3.1 = 57.5%) and the elderly complained of impaired speech function, chewing and swallowing food. There is a significant relationship between knowledge and oral health behavior with DMFT (p = 0.85) and OHIS (p = 0.828). It was concluded that poor oral health status in the elderly could have implications for health problems both locally in the oral cavity and the body in general.Keywords: oral health status, elderly, health implications

Abstract

Heat-cured acrylic denture base-plate may act as reservoir for Streptococcus mutans (all species name must be in italics) colonies, this condition may lead to denture stomatitis. One of denture cleansing method that frequently used is by immersion (of what?) in oxygenizing denture cleansers that has several disadvantages such as high cost and biocompatibility issue regarding chemical synthetic component of the solution. Chitosan is a natural compound that has antibacterial nature. The most commonly percentage of chitosan used for biomedical purposes is 2%. The objective of this study is to evaluate the antimicrobial effectivity of chitosan 2% on acrylic heat-cured plates and compare it with oxygenizing denture cleansers. Aquadest was used as control. Fifteen acrylic heat-cured plates (10 x10 x 2 mm) immersed in Streptococcus mutans suspensions at temperature 37°C for 48 hours of 3 different solutions. The solutions were vortexed and put into (Brain Heart Infusion Agar) medium. Streptococcus mutans colonies were counted manually. The result shows, that Streptococcus mutans colonies on aquadest group was 269.75 CFU/plate, followed by oxygenizing denture cleanser with 11 CFU/plate), and chitosan 2% group with 0.4 CFU/plate, respectively. Data were analysed with Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test followed by Mann-Whitney test shows of p=0.012 (p<0.05). There were no statistically significant different of antimicrobial activity between chitosan 2% and oxygenizing denture cleanser. The result demonstrated that chitosan 2% solution was more effective to prohibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans colonies on acrylic heat cured plates, however a statistically significant difference between the two groups was not observed.

Abstract

Amalgam is a filler material containing toxic mercury. One of the main risks comes from the mercury vapor released in the mouth. The presence of amalgams in the oral cavity changes the metabolism of epithelial cells in the oral mucosa. Exfoliative cytology is a fast and easy method because the examination is only performed on the surface of the oral mucosa, and epithelial cells can be released without anesthesia. The research method was an analytical descriptive with a cross-sectional design. Epithelial cells from oral mucosa were collected from 32 samples using the cytobrush method. The epithelial cells were collected on the closest buccal mucosa of the amalgam restoration. The number of epithelial cells in the oral mucosa was seen through micrographs from a microscope with 100x magnification. The data were analyzed using the Mann Whitney U test to determine the number of epithelial cells released. The Mann Whitney U test results showed that there was a significant difference in the number of oral mucosal epithelial cells obtained ​​between subjects with amalgam and subjects without amalgam with p<0.05. In addition, there was a difference in the features of oral mucosal epithelial cells between subjects with amalgam and subjects without amalgam. In conclusion, the number of epithelial cells obtained from amalgam users was higher than the subjects without restorations. The forms of epithelial cells which experience desquamation in the subjects with amalgam were more irregular than those of subjects without restorations.

Abstract

Oral potentially malignant disorders have been associated with a betel quid chewing habit. To date, betel quid chewing has a major social and cultural role in the society of Samosir Island, North Sumatra, Indonesia. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the occurrence of oral potentially malignant disorders associated with the habit of betel quid chewing in the society of Samosir Island, North Sumatra, Indonesia. This case-control study was conducted on all betel quid chewers in the working area of the Ambarita Public Health Centre in Samosir Regency, North Sumatra, Indonesia. All subjects were examined clinically for the presence of any oral lesions and interviewed for their betel quid chewing habit. Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests were used to analyze the relationship between variables. Among the 51 subjects recruited in the study, 28 subjects suffered from oral potentially malignant disorders who had oral potentially malignant disorders such as submucous fibrosis and/or leukoplakia (the case group) whereas 23 subjects showed no clinically detectable oral potentially malignant disorders (the control group). An increased risk of oral potentially malignant disorders was associated with the habit of chewing areca nut and tobacco (OR=1.600; p=0.542), the duration of betel quid chewing more than 25 years (OR=4.379; p=0.023), and the frequency of betel quid chewing more than 6 times/day (OR=4.800; p=0.021). In conclusion, oral potentially malignant disorders were associated with chewing betel quid habit in the society of Samosir Island, North Sumatra, Indonesia.

Abstract

Patients with removable partial denture need abutment tooth as retainer for the clasp. In some cases, this tooth requires endodontic treatment or even jacket crown so it can be used as a clasp retainer. For patient with removable partial denture, post core and crown fabrication in abutment teeth require adjustments to the crown to fit with denture clasp. First case, a 23-year-old male patient with fractured lower second premolar tooth because of previous metal restoration failure and had been treated with root canal treatment. The tooth was used as an abutment for removable partial denture that was still in good condition. The tooth was later treated with cast post and core with PFM (Porcelain fused to metal) crown. Second case, a 60-year-old female patient came to the clinic with a complaint of fracture in upper first premolar. This tooth was also used as abutment for maxillary framework partial denture. A template made of pattern resin was made to reproduce the dentures for both cases. Acrylic resin has good accuracy and stability to reproduce parts of the denture. The advantage of this technique is that patients can use their denture during fabrication of the crown.

Abstract

Recurrent aphtous stomatitisis a recurrent oral ulcer. Clinically recurrent aphtous stomatitis is easy to diagnose, but its etiology and pathogenesis remain unclear because it has no single or specific cause. The main predisposing factors associated with recurrent aphtous stomatitis are genetic factors, hematological and immunologic abnormalities, local factors such as trauma, and smoking cessation. Several studies have shown that hematological abnormalities can affect the oral mucosa and cause recurrent aphtous stomatitis. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between recurrent aphthous stomatitis and iron deficiency anemia, as well as the relationship between recurrent aphthous stomatitis and hematological status. The subjects consist of 59 recurrent aphtous stomatitis patients and 60 control patients. A full blood examination was carried out for all subjects. Hemoglobin level, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, and serum iron level are determined for each subject.The result of this study showed that there is no significant difference in hemoglobin level, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, and serum iron level with p-value of 0.714, 0.395, 0.809, 0.497, and 0.368, respectively. The result also showed that there is no significant difference in iron deficiency anemia status between the recurrent aphtous stomatitis and control group (p = 0,7). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is no relationship between iron deficiency anemia and recurrent aphtous stomatitis incidence.
