Abstract

Hospitals as health care facilities are prone to infection. Infections that occur in hospitals are called nosocomial infections or can be called HAIs (Healthcare Associated Infection). Various kinds of procedures and dental health facilities can potentially cause infection transmission. There are infection prevention and control guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health in 2017, but their implementation is still not optimal. One of the factors that influence the implementation of infection prevention and control is the lack of awareness in complying with and understanding the guidelines. To describe the implementation of infection prevention and control in health workers at Unimus Dental dan Oral Hospital. The type of research used is analytic observational with a cross sectional research design through a descriptive approach. Results: 94.9% of dental professional students were very good at implementing infection prevention and control, but 2.6% were still lacking. As many as 71.4% of dentists are good at implementing infection prevention and control, but 14.3% are still lacking. 50% of dental nurses are very good at implementing infection prevention and control. And 100% of the PPI staff have been very good at implementing infection prevention and control at Unimus Dental dan Oral Hospital. The implementation of infection prevention and control in the Unimus Dental dan Oral Hospital for students of professions, PPI staff, dentists, dentists and dental nurses, the results were 87.7% very good, 7% good and 5.3% not good

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major concern in clinical health education settings due to its airborne transmission risk. This study aimed to analyze the risk of TB transmission and evaluate the implementation of Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) by students during preventive dentistry procedures in the JKG Care Service Laboratory at Poltekkes Semarang. Using a descriptive-analytic method with a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 60 students through structured questionnaires and direct observation. The results showed that 73% of students demonstrated moderate IPC behavior, and 67% of the laboratory conditions were rated as moderately compliant with standards. Bivariate analysis revealed no significant relationship between student IPC behavior and laboratory conditions (p = 0.885), but there was a significant relationship between IPC behavior and the implementation of preventive dentistry procedures (p = 0.012). These findings indicate that student compliance with IPC is more influenced by procedural application than environmental factors. Strengthening IPC training and supervision during clinical practice is crucial to minimize TB transmission risk in dental health education settings.

Abstract

Rampant caries in toddlers or early childhood caries (ECC) can affect chewing and the ability to eat and drink. The prevalence of caries in the 3-4 year age group in Indonesia in 2018 was 81.5%. A recent World Health Organization (WHO) report stated that dental caries can affect children's growth. Balanced evidence shows that ECC is associated with stunting in children. Rampant caries in primary teeth hurt nutritional status, mediated by caries depth, chronic inflammation, and oral pain. A dental and oral health caries prevention program is needed to prevent stunting. This research aims to develop and test the feasibility of a Tooth Protection Model for Preventing Caries and Stunting in Early Childhood. The research method used is Research and Development/ (R&D), consisting of searching for potential problems, collecting data through literature review and FGD, Design Making, Validation of three preventive dentistry experts and three pediatric dentistry experts, Revision and User Feasibility Test for 30 toddler mother. Data analysis uses an Interclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) with a two-way mixed type. The results of expert validation obtained an average score of 75 (decent category with revision), with good inter-rater reliability (ICC = 0.750). The results of user trials on 18 mothers of toddlers produced an average score of 90.67 (very feasible category without revision), with an ICC value of 0.860, meaning good reliability. The research conclusion shows that the Tooth Protection Model is worthy of implementation as a comprehensive approach to preventing caries and stunting in toddlers.

Abstract

Stunting is the most prevalent form of malnutrition, with far-reaching impacts beyond just height and academic performance, as it is also associated with poor oral health conditions. A study has shown that stunted children have a high prevalence of dental caries, with a def-t index value of 53.3%. Muaro Jambi Regency has a stunting prevalence rate higher than the provincial average of Jambi, standing at 18.6%. This study aims to identify the relationship between formula feeding and the incidence of dental caries in Muaro Jambi Regency in 2024. This study employs a cross-sectional design. The sample consists of stunted children aged 1-5 years. Data analysis includes univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses. The results of this study show that formula feeding has a significant association with the incidence of dental caries in stunted children, with a p-value of 0.007 after controlling for the variables of cariogenic food consumption and tooth brushing habits. Furthermore, the results indicate that stunted children who are fed formula are 14.545 times more likely to develop dental caries compared to those who are not fed formula.

Abstract

Dental plaque is a significant factor in developing oral diseases, particularly in children with special needs who may face challenges maintaining oral hygiene. This study explores the potential of a mouthwash formulation incorporating Kerinci cinnamon leaf (Cinnamomum burmanii) and Tangkit pineapple core (Ananas comosus) extracts in preventing dental plaque growth. Both extracts were chosen due to their known antibacterial properties and natural origin, making them suitable for children with sensitivities to synthetic chemicals. The formulation was tested in varying ratios to determine the most effective combination for inhibiting the growth of Streptococcus mutans, a primary bacterium responsible for dental plaque. The results indicated that a 50:50 ratio of cinnamon leaf and pineapple core extracts exhibited the highest antibacterial activity (p-value 0,034), outperforming other ratios such as 75:25 and 25:75. This suggests a synergistic interaction between the two extracts, enhancing their combined efficacy. Further research is recommended to optimize the formulation and evaluate its long-term effectiveness and safety in clinical settings

Abstract

The most prevalent oral mucosal lesion is Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS). SAR can occur due to local trauma, stress, drug use, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, immunological factors, smoking, hereditary and genetic factors, microbial factors, food hypersensitivity, hematinic deficiencies, and human immunodeficiency (HIV) infection. RAS is a prevalent condition that is defined by the presence of round ulcers that appear as recurrent lesions, numerous, small, round, have a yellowish base, and are surrounded by an erythematous halo and can occur in young and adult ages. Specifically, the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has affected people's lives around the world, including senior high school students. The incidence of RAS in adolescents is categorized as high; according to the findings of RISKESDAS, the percentage is 8.7%. Stress is a contributing component to the development of RAS. The objective of this investigation was to ascertain the correlation between stress and the prevalence of RAS during the COVID19 pandemic. This investigation employed a cross-sectional design and was observational analytic. A total of 104 research subjects were included in the study, which was conducted on students at SMA Negeri 6 in Yogyakarta. The results revealed 59 respondents with normal stress levels, of which 57 respondents (54.8%) were positive for RAS. The Spearman Rank correlation statistical test was employed to analyze the data, resulting in a significant value of p = 0.019 or <0.05, which denotes a correlation stress and the occurrence of RAS during the COVID-19 pandemic in students at SMA 6 Yogyakarta, serving as the conclusion

Abstract

Periodontitis is one of the most common periodontal diseases affecting both elderly individuals and heavy smokers. This case report aims to describe the management of a geriatric patient with generalized chronic periodontitis and a history of heavy smoking. A 63-year-old male patient presented with a chief complaint of mobile teeth that had persisted for the past three months. Intraoral examination revealed necrosis, cervical caries, gingival recession, and poor oral hygiene. The treatment included extraction of the mobile teeth and socket curettage to remove necrotic tissue. The patient was prescribed antibiotics and analgesics, followed by a one-week post-operative evaluation. The patient reported no pain or swelling after extraction, and the healing process was satisfactory, with no signs of infection. The patient was also informed about a long-term treatment plan involving the fabrication of a prosthesis. Tooth extraction in patients with chronic periodontitis requires careful consideration of both clinical and non-clinical factors. This case highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach in the management of periodontitis in elderly heavy smokers.

Abstract

The results of the Basic Health Research (2018) stated that the Indonesian population with oral problems aged 55-64 years was 61.9% and aged> 65 years was 54.2%. Some changes in teeth and oral cavity that are often found in the elderly are tooth loss which results in impaired food digestion, pain / pain in the teeth due to periodontal tissue and root caries, reduced vertical dimensions of artificial teeth, gingivitis and various other abnormalities. It is hoped that after being given oral health education through an innovation program in the form of a stroke elderly companion link or what is called “LIPSIAS” can increase the knowledge of stroke elderly on how to maintain their oral health through the help of a companion so that it can have a good influence on their dental hygiene. Research Objectives: Producing a dental and oral health maintenance program through empowering elderly companions in the form of the LIPSIAS Application as a medium for promoting oral health in the Elderly Social Service Home. Using Quantitative methods with pre-experiment research design (one group pretest and posttest design). The sampling technique was purposive sampling consisting of 14 elderly stroke at the Elderly Social Services Home. Results: The results of the statistical test showed P value <0.05, meaning that there was a significant difference in the knowledge of dental and oral health maintenance of stroke elderly before and after being given the LIPSIAS application intervention. Before treatment, the average value of knowledge of stroke elderly was 4.07 (poor category) increased to 8 (good category). The LIPSIAS application is effective in increasing the knowledge of stroke elderly about how to maintain oral health through companion assistance

Abstract

Pediatric cancer patients are particularly vulnerable to oral health complications, primarily due to the adverse effects of chemotherapy. This treatment significantly influences both oral health and nutritional status, especially in children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Chemotherapy can trigger a range of oral issues, including mucositis, dry mouth (xerostomia), and oral infections, which in turn can hinder proper nutritional intake and compromise overall health. This paper aims to investigate the impact of chemotherapy on oral health and nutrition in pediatric cancer patients, focusing on those with ALL. Through a literature review, the study examines the prevalence and types of oral complications and their effects on well-being. Relevant literature published between 2014 and 2024 was sourced from databases such as EBSCO, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, ProQuest, and Scopus. Using the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcomes) framework, articles were selected and critically appraised by two independent reviewers. A descriptive method was employed to analyze the data. Out of 2,465 initially identified articles, eight were selected for in-depth analysis. The findings show that pediatric cancer patients face both immediate and long-term oral health issues, including dental abnormalities and jaw development problems. These complications can cause pain, eating difficulties, and social stigma, negatively affecting the child's quality of life. The study emphasizes the need for early oral health intervention, better training for healthcare providers, and the development of standardized oral care protocols. Future research should aim to assess the effectiveness of targeted oral health interventions in improving nutrition and overall quality of life in pediatric oncology patients.

Abstract

Teeth undergoing root canal treatment are at higher fracture risk due to changes in dentin’s mechanical properties from irrigation solutions, leading to erosion and reduced fracture resistance. This study evaluates the effects of various final irrigation solutions and techniques on fracture resistance in treated teeth. An experimental study used 24 mandibular premolars, divided into six groups, each treated with one of two irrigation solutions (17% EDTA or 0.2% chitosan nanoparticles) and one of three irrigation techniques (manual, sonic, ultrasonic). Fracture resistance was measured with a Universal Testing Machine, and results analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Post-Hoc LSD tests. Findings indicated both irrigation solution type and technique significantly affected fracture resistance (p<0.05). The group treated with Chitosan Nanoparticles using manual agitation showed the highest fracture resistance, while the EDTA Ultrasonic group showed the lowest. These results highlight the importance of selecting irrigation solutions and techniques to enhance fracture resistance in root canal-treated teeth, with chitosan nanoparticles and manual techniques showing the best outcomes.
