Abstract

Head trauma frequently happens in cases of physical violence, particularly in cases of abuse. A common sign of head trauma is trismus, characterized by difficulties in mouth opening, which can diminish an individual's quality of life and disrupt daily activities. The prognosis of trismus is contingent upon various factors, necessitating appropriate management in its therapy. The age factor and the severity of the etiology of trismus must be evaluated to determine the appropriate treatment. This condition also influences the decision-making over the classification of the wound documented in the Visum et Repertum for judicial purposes.

Abstract

17% EDTA is a chelating agent used to clean the smear layer. Novel silver citrate (NSC) is a new material with the same use, while 0.2% chitosan nanoparticles are a material that has been widely studied. The agitation technique influences smear layer cleanliness by optimizing the penetration of irrigation material. Agitation techniques are sonic and ultrasonic agitation techniques; each has its advantages and disadvantages. The research objective is to evaluate the effect of final irrigation materials, agitation techniques, and a combination of both on the cleanliness of the smear layer in the apical third of the root canal.Forty-five premolars were prepared with a rotary instrument. Samples then randomly divided into 3 experimental groups (n=15). Group 1 used 17% EDTA, group 2 used NSC, and group 3 used 0.2% nanoparticle chitosan. Each group was divided into three subgroups (n=5) with subgroup A using manual agitation technique, subgroup B sonic agitation, and subgroup C ultrasonic agitation. The samples were sectioned and then examined under SEM with 5000x magnification to evaluate the cleanliness of the smear layer. The results from SEM were scored and then analyzed using Chi-Square test (IBM SPSS Statistics 29.0.1.0).Final irrigation agents of 17% EDTA, NSC, and 0.2% chitosan nanoparticles resulted in the same cleanliness of the smear layer (p˃0.05). The ultrasonic agitation technique showed better cleanliness of the smear layer than the sonic agitation and manual agitation techniques (p˂0.05). The final irrigation material combined with agitation techniques resulted in the same cleanliness of the smear layer (p˃0.05).

Abstract

Background: The dental mouth mirror is a primary diagnostic tool used by oral health professionals to examine the condition of the oral cavity. However, conventional mouth mirrors often face obstacles. Around 53% of dental health professionals report difficulties in providing care due to frequent fogging and dirt accumulation on the mirror surface. Field examinations also often encounter problems due to limited lighting. Patient comfort must also be considered during procedures, as it affects the healing process. Therefore, an innovative dental examination instrument with integrated lighting was developed to enhance patient comfort during treatment.Method: This study used a Research and Development (R&D) approach along with a true experimental design, specifically a posttest-only with control group design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, involving 60 dental filling patients who met the inclusion criteria. Product testing data were analyzed using the descriptive statistics, and the Mann-Whitney test.Result: Expert validation of the dental examination instrument with integrated lighting yielded an average feasibility score of 83.3% (classified as highly feasible) with a p-value of 0.00. The effectiveness test of the tool showed a significant improvement in patient comfort (p = 0.000).Conclusion: The dental examination instrument with integrated lighting has been validated and proven effective in improving patient comfort during dental filling procedures performed by oral health professionals.

Abstract

Background: The prevalence of oral candidiasis has been increasing in recent years due to various factors, such as diseases that weaken the immune system, medication, xerostomia, and chemotherapy. The types of antifungal drugs are still very limited, and those that can be given systemically have significant side effects. Numerous in-vitro studies have demonstrated that bay leaves have antifungal properties. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bay leaf extract in vivo on the oral candidiasis rat model.Method: The rat model for oral candidiasis was created by adding Tetracycline HCl 500 mg/L to the rats' drinking water. Then, the rats were injected with methylprednisolone one day before and after inoculating 0.3 ml of Candida albicans (9.4 x 107 cells/ml) into the oral cavity of the rats. The bay leaf extract was given to two groups of the oral candidiasis rat model by intragastric tube at 250 mg/kgBW/day (P1) and 500 mg/kgBW/day (P2)  doses for 5 days.  Oral candidiasis infection was evaluated on the last day by counting the number of colonies from swabs of the oral mucosa cultured on SDA-C. Result: After 5 days of treatment, the number of fungal colonies of group P2 was surprisingly higher than P1, positive and negative control. Conclusion: This study revealed that bay leaf extract aggravated oral candidiasis in vivo. The flavonoids in bay leaves may inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which could diminish the rats' immune response.

Abstract

Background: An imbalance in the normal flora of the oral cavity can cause dental caries. The prevalence of caries in primary teeth in Indonesia which experiences caries is 90.2%, which shows that the prevalence of caries is still quite high. One way to prevent bacterial activity is using mouthwash. Chlorhexidine gluconate and Povidone Iodine are antibacterial agents that are effective in inhibiting bacterial growth, through bacteriostatic and bactericidal actions. This study aims to determine whether there is an inhibitory effect of chlorhexidine gluconate and povidone iodine on the growth of Streptococcus mutans (quantity).Method: This study used the broth microdilution method by treating Streptococcus mutans using  0.1 % chlorhexidine gluconate and  1% povidone iodine. The effect of inhibitory power was measured using the broth microdilution technique and the total plate count technique in the form of Colony Forming Units (CFU). Statistical calculations use the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Levene's homogeneity test and Tukey's Post Hoc test to determine differences between treatments.Result: The results of the research showed that the treatment group in the form of 0.1% chlorhexidine gluconate and 1% povidone iodine had a very significant effect on the growth of bacterial colonies, which was very significant for the growth of Streptococcus mutans bacterial colonies.Conclusion: Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.1% and povidone iodine 1% were effective in reducing the growth of Streptococcus mutans bacteria.

Abstract

 Background: Indonesia is experiencing a double nutritional problem, undernutrition problem and overnutrition problem.  Excess body weight has an effect on oral health. Underweight individuals have a risk of experiencing hyposalivation and caries. Changes the condition of the oral cavity that occur in the BMI category are related to the rate of saliva flow. BMI is positively correlated with salivary gland size.Method: The type of the research used analytical observational  with a cross sectional approach. BMI is calculated by comparing body weight to height squared. The prevalence of caries is calculated using the decayed, missing, filled-teeth index (def-t or DMF-T). Caries risk assessment is carried out using the CAMBRA method.Result: 22.8% of children with underweight BMI had a caries index of 4.34 and 50% had a high risk of caries. The results of the Spearman correlation test between BMI and the caries index obtained a significance value of 0.046, so it can be concluded that there is a relationship between BMI and the caries index. The results of the correlation test between BMI and caries risk assessment obtained a significance value of 0.070, so it can be concluded that there is no relationship between BMI and caries risk.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between Body Mass Index and  the caries index. There is no significant relationship between Body Mass Index and caries risk assessment using the CAMBRA method in children living in coastal areas
