Abstract

Alteration of maxillary growth, improvement in mandibular growth and position, and change in dental and muscular relationships, especially changing in esthetic profile are the expected results of myofunctional appliances. The use of Bionator appliance is a widely used myofunctional appliance for the management of Class II malocclusion. A normal and healthy Indonesian boy aged 12 years and 2 months old was motivated for treatment for protruded maxillary anterior teeth and retrognathic mandibular. He was introverted and had poor self-esteem despite his normal medical history. He had a Class II Division 1 malocclusion with a 10 mm overjet, normal overbite, with an SNA of 92.89°, SNB of 85.32°, ANB of 7.52°, and a facial angle of 88.11°. He was in mixed dentition stage with all his permanent teeth available and ready to erupt. The patient was treated in two phases: phase I to correct the skeletal discrepancy using Bionator appliance and phase II to correct the tooth discrepancy using fixed appliance. At the end of phase I treatment, or 10 months of wearing Bionator appliance, the patient’s mandible was positioned forward with the ANB angle reduced from 7.56° to 2.30°, and the profile was greatly improved. His molar and canine relationship was Class I. His profile became straight and more favorable. Early treatment using functional appliance therapy can reduce the severity of Class II skeletal pattern and instant change in facial and dental appearance in growing patients.

Abstract

Titanium is the most widely used dental implant material, but it requires surface treatment to improve osseointegration. While coating implants with TiO2, residue can arise, which may lead to contamination. To address this, 10% HF etching is added. This study investigated the effect of TiO2 coating using sputtering and HF etching on platelet activation in titanium dental implants. Laboratory experiments were conducted on titanium implants (Ø = 4 mm; length = 12 mm) treated with TiO2 coating and 10% HF etching. Twenty-four samples were divided into four groups (n = 6): Group I (TiO2), Group II (TiO2 + HF 5 min), Group III (TiO2 + HF 10 min), and Group IV (TiO2 + HF 20 min). Platelet activation was assessed using CD41 and CD62P expression markers. Data analysis employed one-way ANOVA and post hoc LSD test (p = 0.05). Platelet activation ranged from 20.31 ± 1.78% to 35.90 ± 3.81%. One-way ANOVA revealed a significant effect (p < 0.05) of both TiO2 coating and acid etching on activation. LSD post hoc test showed significant differences (p < 0.05) between all groups except for the 10 and 20-minute etching periods. TiO2 coating with 10 minutes of HF etching resulted in the optimal activation level.

Abstract

The most recent development in composite resin is bioactive resin, which replaces common resin. If ignored, the tendency for shrinking in bioactive composite resin could result in microleakage. Bonding material innovations that incorporate more filler have also been created to reduce this issue and lower the possibility of microleakage. The purpose of this study is to compare the microleakage of bioactive composite resin restorations with and without filled bonding material. Thirty-two maxillary first premolar samples were split into two groups: group A containing 16 samples repaired with unfilled OptiBondTM Universal (Kerr) and group B containing 16 samples restored with filled SingleBond Universal (3 M). Utilizing ACTIVATM BioACTIVE-Restorative (Pulpdent), the samples from both groups were restored.The specimens were subjected to a 24-hour artificial saliva incubation period, succeeded by an equivalent duration of exposure to 2% methylene blue. A USB digital microscope stereo was used to measure the microleakage by observing the methylene blue 2% penetration depth. Microleakage was 8.95% in group A and 8.83% in group B, according to the results. The findings of the the parametric test using the independent t-test showed that there was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in microleakage across the bioactive composite resin restoration groups. This indicates that the microlekeage of bioactive composite resin restoration is unaffected by the presence of filler in the bonding agent.

Abstract

Oral health problems among elementary school children are still very common. One of the contributing factors is behavior in maintaining oral hygiene. Behavior is established from knowledge which will then stimulate changes in attitudes and practice. Efforts to enhance knowledge in children can be achieved through counseling. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of oral health counseling using traditional folklore video media on knowledge in children aged 8-9 years. This was quasi-experimental research with a two group pre-test and post-test design. Sampling was conducted using multistage cluster random sampling with a total sample of 112 children aged 8-9 years in elementary schools. The sample was divided into 2 groups: 56 children using traditional folklore video as the intervention group and 56 children using conventional video as the control group. Knowledge variables were measured using a questionnaire; most of the data were not normally distributed so data analysis was carried out using the Mann-Whitney U Test. The results of the difference analysis using the Mann-Whitney U Test at pre-post 2 showed a significant increase in knowledge in both groups. The median knowledge score of the traditional folklore video group showed a greater increase compared to the conventional video group by 13 (6.6 - 20) (p < 0.001). This study concluded that oral health counseling using traditional folklore video is more effective in increasing oral health knowledge in children aged 8-9 years compared to conventional video media.

Abstract

Noni fruit (M. citrifolia L.) is a medicinal plant known for its antioxidant bioactive compounds, which have potential use as radiation protection agents. Despite their traditional use, the specific bioactive compounds and their efficacy as radiation protectants have not been thoroughly investigated. This study aims to address this research gap by evaluating the potential of noni fruit extract as a candidate for radiation protection using in-silico methods. Databases consulted include PubChem, PASS Online, and ProTox-II. The results identified nine bioactive compounds in noni fruit extract: quercetin, kaempferol, morindin, morindone, alizarin, nicotinamide, beta-sitosterol, squalene, and n-hexadecanoic acid. Among these, kaempferol, squalene, and n-hexadecanoic acid were found to be the most potent antioxidants. Kaempferol exhibited a low toxicity level (grade 5) with significant activity as an antioxidant (Pa ≥ 0.7), free radical scavenger (Pa ≥ 0.7), and radioprotector (Pa 0.3 – 0.7). Squalene, a triterpene with low toxicity (class 5), showed antioxidant activity (Pa 0.3 – 0.7), free radical scavenger activity (Pa 0.3 – 0.7), and radioprotection (Pa 0.3 – 0.7). n-Hexadecanoic acid, a metabolite with moderate toxicity (class 4), demonstrated lower antioxidant activity (Pa ≤ 0.3), while morindin exhibited free radical scavenging and radioprotective properties. The findings suggest that kaempferol, squalene, and n-hexadecanoic acid in noni fruit extract hold promise as candidates for radiation protection, as evidenced by in-silico analysis.

Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has introduced new impediments to delivering and accessing dental care. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic experience, research into anticipatory measures for pediatric dental care is necessary to prepare for future pandemics or other public health events. This study sought to explore factors influencing mothers’ anxiety over taking their children to the dentist during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted an explorative qualitative study with social cognitive theory (SCT) as its theoretical framework. In-depth interviews with mothers of children aged 6–12 years in five areas in Surabaya were selected as the method for answering the qualitative inquiries. To improve transparency, we employed a 32-item consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist. Thematic data analysis revealed three primary cross-cutting themes: internal (personal) factors, external (socio-environmental) factors, and interaction between internal factors and external factors. Based on the interviews, five internal factor sub-themes impacting maternal anxiety over child dental treatment emerged: knowledge, self-efficacy, risk perception, trust in a dentist, and experiences with a child’s dental visit. Moreover, three external factor sub-themes were noted: public transportation, bulk COVID-19 information, and costs. Findings revealed that internal and external factors interacted with each other and influenced maternal anxiety over pediatric dental care during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study benefits public health by contributing to the development of strategies and policies for dental health services under unforeseen health crises.

Abstract

One of the crucial steps of identifying an individual is to determine their sex. The mandible, which is the largest and strongest bone in the human face, is a useful tool due to its significant sexual dimorphism. Two features that are recognized for their high sexual dimorphism are the gonial angle and mandibular ramus height. Several studies have shown different results when using both measures to estimate sex, factors that are thought to influence morphological differences include age, population, sex, and physical activity. The objective of this study was to analyze the differences in gonial angle and mandibular ramus height between sexes using panoramic radiography. Additionally, it aimed to analyze the correlation between these measurements and sex. The measurements of the gonial angle and mandibular ramus height were conducted using ImageJ software. Initially, the specific anatomical landmarks were identified, and the software’s measurement tools were then employed to accurately assess the height and angle based on these selected points. The sample consisted of secondary data obtained from 70 panoramic radiographs of patients aged 20–45 years at the Dental and Oral Teaching Hospital (RSGMP) of Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya. Data analysis was conducted using the independent t-test and Pearson correlation. There was a significant difference in the mandibular ramus height between sexes, with males having a greater height (p < 0.05). It was also discovered that, despite the fact that males exhibited a smaller gonial angle compared to females, this difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.29). Furthermore, a significant correlation was observed between mandibular ramus height and sex (r = 0.498); however, there was no significant correlation between gonial angle and sex (r = -0.128). The study reveals a significant difference in mandibular ramus height between males and females, with males exhibiting greater height. This parameter shows a strong correlation with sex, making it a reliable indicator for sex determination. Conversely, the gonial angle is not suitable for this purpose.

Abstract

Produced by a stingless bee (Tetragonula biroi) from Sulawesi Island, propolis is an active compound that requires further studies to determine its herbal-based medicinal applications. In addition, propolis is well known as a potential natural ingredient for herbal medicine with minimal side effects. The stingless honeybee, native to Sulawesi, produces propolis, a resin. Propolis from Trigona stingless bees in Sulawesi has the highest flavonoid content compared to Apis mellifera bees. Flavonoids are the most common compounds contained in propolis. Propolis from stingless bees may have the potential to stimulate osteoblast cell proliferation and be responsible for bone regeneration. The objective of this study is to investigate the viability of the 7F2 pre-osteoblast cell line after administration of the stingless bee’s 1% propolis nanoemulsion extract (PNE). A 1% PNE was formulated by maceration methods and diluted into several concentrations of 100%, 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%, 3.125%, 1.56%, and 0.78%. A particle size analysis was done to examine the particle size and zeta potential of the 1% PNE. A Tetrazolium Technique assay was carried out to examine 1% PNE application on a 7F2 pre-osteoblast cell line on days 1, 3, and 7. The highest viability of 7F2 pre-osteoblast cells was at 0.78% concentration on day 7, and the lowest viability was observed at 100% concentration on day 1, with significant differences among groups (p < 0.05). A 1% PNE with a particle size of 151.28 to 182.2 nm and a zeta potential of −32.76 mV was successfully formulated. The 1% PNE was non-toxic to 7F2 pre-osteoblast cells, with a cell toxicity limit at a concentration of 1.56%.

Abstract

The success of endodontic treatment depends on proper shaping, disinfection, and obturation of the root canals. The filling material must adequately occupy the root canal space without extending the anatomical apex. Overfilling occurs when the filling material extrudes into the periapical tissues beyond the apex, which negatively affects the long-term prognosis. Endodontic overfilling cases can be addressed through surgical treatments aimed at preserving the tooth. This case report aims to inform to highlight endodontic surgery as an effective treatment for cases of failed root canal treatment due to overfilling of the obturation material. A 27-year-old male patient came to the Dental Conservation clinic at RSGM Prof. Soedomo with a chief complaint of the left maxillary lateral incisor, which had undergone discoloration and caused discomfort during chewing. The tooth had undergone root canal treatment two years prior. Periapical radiographic examination revealed that tooth 22 had been treated with overfilling obturation material and there was widening of the periodontal membrane in the periapical area. Root canal retreatment was performed using the crown-down preparation technique, followed by single-cone obturation with a bioceramic sealer. At the subsequent visit, an apicoectomy was performed, involving flap opening, alveolar bone exposure, removal of granulation tissue, and resection of 3 mm of the tooth apex. Retrograde filling with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) was applied, followed by bone grafting and membrane placement. The area was sutured and covered with a periodontal dressing. The final restoration was completed using direct composite resin with intracanal retention. At the one-week follow-up, the patient reported no complaints. In conclusion, apicoectomy is an effective solution for overfilling cases. This case report demonstrates that surgery combined with retreatment can preserve the tooth and restore its function.

Abstract

Malocclusion is the third most common dental problem after caries and periodontal diseases, with prevalence reaching 56% in the world and 89% in Indonesia (2006), respectively. Index of Complexity, Outcome, and Need (ICON) is an assessment tool to measure the necessity, complexity, and success of orthodontic treatment. Although several studies have reported a causal relationship between malocclusion and periodontal disease, the association is still under debate. The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between malocclusion complexity based on ICON and the periodontal status of patients who underwent orthodontic treatment at the Orthodontic Clinic, Dental Hospital, Faculty of Dentistry, Universitas Indonesia. Material and Method: This was an analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Fifty-four new patients (aged 25-44 years) were included. Patients who had systemic disease, used fixed orthodontic appliance or prosthesis, and had some local factors were excluded. Periodontal status, ICON complexity, study model, and radiographic results were examined and analyzed. An interclass correlation test was carried out to obtain data reliability. Result: the majority of malocclusion complexities based on ICON were mild (46.3%). Periodontal status consisted of Plaque Index (good, 81.5%; moderate, 18.5%), Papillary Bleeding Index (no bleeding, 90.7%; severe bleeding, 1.9%), Clinical Attachment Loss (moderate, 40.7%; severe, 22.2%), gingival recession (mild, 83.3%; severe, 7.4%), periodontal probing depth (moderate, 77.8%; severe, 3.7%), and alveolar bone height (middle third, 53.7%; cervical third, 46.3%). Conclusion: No significant correlation was found between malocclusion complexity based on ICON and periodontal status.
