Abstract

Background: The most common dental and oral disease in children is dental caries. The high prevalence rate of caries, which reaches 81.5% in children aged 3-4 years, is still a problem for Indonesia. One of the causes of the high incidence of caries in preschool children is improper breastfeeding or formula-feeding patterns. This research aims to analyze the relationship between formula milk consumption and the severity of caries in preschool children at TK Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal 42 Semarang. Method: This study employs an observational-analytical design, specifically a cross-sectional approach. The population of this study were 71 children from Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal 42 Kindergarten, Semarang.The sample in this study was 66 children. The research sample consisted of 66 respondents selected using a total sampling technique. Data were obtained from dental examinations using the deft index and questionnaires completed by parents/guardians. The data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: The study shows that the length, duration, and frequency of formula milk consumption, the use of bottles/pacifiers, the duration of teat/bottle use, the addition of sweeteners to formula milk, as well as the history of breastfeeding until the age of 2 years and the age at which formula milk was first consumed, all show a p-value <0.05, indicating a significant relationship with caries severity. Conclusion: there is a relationship between formula milk consumption patterns and the severity of caries in preschool children at TK Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal 42 Semarang

Abstract

Background: The main problem in dental and oral health among children is dental caries, a complex disease that begins with acid production that destroys dental minerals. When the pH drops to below 5,5, demineralization occurs faster than remineralization, potentially causing cavities. One approach to addressing this issue is by increasing salivary pH. Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of gargling with propolis mouthwash on increasing salivary pH among children aged 7-9 years. Methods: This laboratory experimental study used a pretest-posttest controlled-group design. A total of 40 respondents from PAB 12 Sampali Elementary School were selected through purposive sampling. Salivary samples (5 ml) were collected and pH levels measured using a pH meter. Results: The Wilcoxon test showed that the average salivary pH before using propolis mouthwash was 6.39, increasing to 7.07 after use. There was a significant effect of propolis mouthwash on salivary pH (p-value = 0.000). Conclusion: The findings indicate that propolis mouthwash effectively increases salivary pH in children aged 7–9 years.

Abstract

Background: Oral cancer remains a global health concern. Many cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage, which affects both treatment outcomes and prognosis. Objective: This study aims to assess the knowledge and attitudes of dental practitioners toward oral cancer in Banda Aceh. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2023 among dentists in Banda Aceh and its surrounding areas. Data were collected using an online questionnaire, which included demographic information and questions on etiology, risk factors, signs and symptoms, oral screening, and attitudes toward oral cancer. Results: A total of 130 respondents participated, comprising 87.7% general practitioners and 12.3% dental specialists. More than half of the respondents demonstrated good knowledge of oral cancer etiology (61.5%) and its signs and symptoms (63.8%). However, only 52.3% had ever performed oral screening. Among those who had never conducted oral screening, 74.6% cited a lack of knowledge on how to perform it, with 16.9% specifically stating that they did not know the correct procedure. Additionally, only 40% of respondents had attended an oral cancer-related conference in the past year. A significant association was found between gender and knowledge of etiology (p < 0.001). Conclusion: To reduce the burden of oral cancer, it is essential to implement strategies that enhance dental practitioners’ knowledge and attitudes toward the disease. Early detection through oral screening and participation in training programs can effectively minimize delays in diagnosis and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] is the gold standard material in pulp capping treatment due to reparative dentin formation and antibacterial. However, Ca(OH)2 deficiency forms reparative dentin with tunnel defects and is easily soluble in water and acid. Mauli banana stem extract (MBSE) functions as an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory and is expected to form better reparative dentin. The combination of Ca(OH)2 and MBSE is assumed to be able to improve the physical properties of Ca(OH)2. Purpose: to analyze the effect of 50% MBSE+ Ca(OH)2 combination on solubility and water absorption as a pulp capping material. Methods: The group were combination of MBSE+Ca(OH)2+PG (1.5:1:0.375), (1:1.5:0.375) and  Ca(OH)2 + aquadest (1:1). Each group consisted of 5 samples with 6 groups and 2 tests, a total of 60 samples with dimensions of 15 mm x 1 mm. Samples were measured for solubility and water absorption ability by weighing before and after dissolving in 50 mL of artificial saliva for 24 hours, drying, incubating, and weighing a second time. The result of the mass reduction divided by the volume of the sample was considered as the solubility and water absorption rate in 1 and 7 days. The data was analyzed using One Way Anova with significant difference <0.05. Results: The solubility of MBSE+Ca(OH)2+PG at (1.5:1:0.375) and (1:1.5:0.375)was lower than Ca(OH)2+aquadest (1:1) after immersion for 1 day and 7 day. The water absorption of MBSE+Ca(OH)2+PG (1.5:1:0.375) was not different from Ca(OH)2+aquadest (1:1) after immersion  for 1 day, but higher in 7 day (p<0,05). Conclusion: The solubility of the MBSE-Ca(OH) combination is lower than Ca(OH)2 alone, the water absorption of the MBSE- Ca(OH)2 combination is higher than that of Ca(OH)2 alone.

Abstract

Background: Dental professional students are at high risk of being infected with the Hepatitis B virus due to their exposure to saliva, blood and droplets during most dental procedures. Various preventive measures have been taken, including education and implementation of infection control precautions. Therefore, the perceptions of dental professional students can influence their behavior in preventing transmission of the Hepatitis B virus. The Health Belief Model was used to determine the perceptions of dental professional students regarding the prevention and transmission of the Hepatitis B virus. Purposes: To determine the perceptions of dental professional students regarding prevention and transmission of the Hepatitis B virus based on the Health Belief Model. Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach with in-depth interviews. Information was collected from 10 informants and 1 key informant through in-depth interviews. Results: 8 of 10 informants perceived high susceptibility to Hepatitis B due to patient contact. Prevention of the Hepatitis B virus provided benefits to the informants even though there were several obstacles to its implementation, such as unfavorable environmental factors and financial limitations. Despite environmental and financial barriers, strong self-efficacy and institutional cues supported preventive behaviors. These findings suggest that reinforcing institutional support and addressing external barriers may enhance preventive behaviors among dental professional students. Conclusion: Based on their perceptions, it is very possible for informants to maintain preventive behavior against the Hepatitis B virus inside and outside the hospital area. Keywords: Dental Professional Students, Health Belief Model, Hepatitis B, Perception, Prevention.
