Abstract

Introduction: The dentist’s evaluation of complete denture often differs from the patient’s evaluation. Dentists are more prioritising the clinical aspects of the dentures, such as vertical dimension, aesthetical, stability, and denture-bearing area, while patients are more prioritising their satisfaction based on aspects such as aesthetical, mastication, comfort, and phonetic ability. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the stability of maxillary and mandibular denture-bearing area towards the complete denture patient’s satisfaction level. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study with purposive sampling as the sampling method. The sample of this study was as much as 30 complete denture patient. The patients were interviewed using a questionnaire in each of the patient’s house, to obtain a more honest patient’s satisfaction assessment on the dentures, without being affected by any clinical environment and assessment. The interview was conducted before the clinical evaluation was performed. The statistical analysis was performed using the Fisher’s test. The stability of the denture-bearing area was evaluated clinically. Mastication ability and patient’s comfort were evaluated using a questionnaire. Result: A significant relationship was found between the stability of maxillary denture-bearing area towards mastication (p = 0.012), and the stability of mandibular denture-bearing area towards mastication (p = 0.029); while no significant relationship was found between the stability of maxillary denture-bearing area towards the patient’s comfort (p = 0,051), and the stability of mandibular denture-bearing area towards the patient’s comfort (p = 0,547). Conclusion: There was a relationship between the  stability of maxillary and mandibular denture-bearing area towards the patient’s masticatory satisfaction level. However, the relationship between the  stability of maxillary and mandibular denture-bearing area towards the patient’s comfort was not found.

Abstract

Introduction: Tooth eruption is influenced by various factors, one of them is nutritional factors. This study was aimed to obtain information regarding the relationship between the number of permanent teeth erupted with nutritional status in 6-7-years-old children. Methods: This research was cross-sectional and correlational data analysis. The study was conducted towards as much as 57 children aged 6-7 years old. The sampling method was the purposive sampling technique conducted in Tanjungsari 2 State Elementary School, Sumedang Regency. The nutritional status was calculated based on the Body Mass Index (BMI) according to age from the anthropometric measurements of body weight and height. Assessment of nutritional status was performed using the WHO Anthroplus® v1.0.4 application. Statistical analysis was performed using the Spearman correlation test and Mann-Whitney difference test. Results: The correlation test has obtained the value of ρ = 0.037, which showed a significant relationship between the number of permanent teeth erupted with nutritional status of 6-7-years-old children. The Spearman correlation coefficient has obtained the value of r = 0.277, thus showed the weak strength and positive direction of the correlation. Conclusion: There is a relationship between the nutritional status and the number of permanent teeth erupted in children aged 6-7 years old in the Tanjungsari Sub-district of Sumedang Regency. The higher the nutritional status of a child, the more number of permanent teeth erupted.

Abstract

Introduction: Denture cleanser must be able to remove bacterial plaque layers, eliminate food debris, with non-toxic properties. Denture cleansing was performed by immersing the denture into a solution of H2O2. Continuous denture wear can lead to plaque accumulation of Candida albicans colonies thus causes denture stomatitis. There was a slight dimensional stability difference of the self-cured acrylic base compared to the heat-cured after immersion in water. This study was aimed to analyse the effect of denture cleansing solution (H2O2) on the water solubility of self-cured acrylic resin. Methods: Twenty-four specimens of self-cured acrylic resin sized 15 x 20 x 2 mm, were divided into the control group (n = 12) and the treatment group (n = 12). All specimens were then immersed in the aquadest (control group) and H202(treatment group) for 6, 8, and 10 hours consecutively. Result: The average water solubility of self-cured acrylic resin soaked in H2O2 solution at 6 hours was 0.0007 µg/mm3; at 8 hours was 0.0011 µg/mm3; and at 10 hours was 0.0013 µg/mm3. The average water solubility of self-cured acrylic resin soaked in aquadest solution at 6 hours was 0.0013 µg/mm3; at 8 hours was 0.0080 µg/mm3; and at 10 hours was 0.0125 µg/mm3. Conclusion: The water solubility of the self-cured acrylic resin immersed in the H2O2 solution for 6, 8, and 10 hours was still below the ISO standard.Keywords: Self-cured acrylic resin, H2O2, immersion time, water solubility.

Abstract

Introduction: Streptococcus sanguis is an initial cause of dental plaque formation which is the initial cause of caries. One of the preventive treatments can be done by using the mouthwash containing antibacterial substances. Along time, natural remedies are proven to be having more antibacterial properties. Ant-plant (Myrmecodia pendens Merr. & Perry) tubers are types of epiphytic plant that grows in many parts of Papua, with many health benefits, and are known to contain flavonoids, tannins, and tocopherols. This study was aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of ethyl acetate fraction from methanolic extracts of ant-plant tubers on the growth of Streptococcus sanguis ATCC 10566. Methods: The ant-plant tubers were extracted with soxhletation method using the methanol solvent. The fractionation was then performed using ethyl acetate to obtain the ethyl acetate fraction. Result: The phytochemical test showed that the ethyl acetate fraction of the ant-plant contained phenolics, tannins, flavonoids, and terpenoids. The bacterial test in this study was using the microdilution method using the ELISA Reader by measuring the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of ethyl acetate fraction of ant-plant tubers towards Streptococcus sanguis with positive control was using the chlorhexidine gluconate as the golden standard medication. The ethyl acetate fraction of ant-plant tuber had an antibacterial effect towards Streptococcus sanguis in the MIC of 31.25 ppm, while chlorhexidine gluconate was 0.49 ppm. Conclusion: The ethyl acetate fraction of ant-plant had a lower antibacterial activity compared to chlorhexidine gluconate on the growth of Streptococcus sanguis ATCC 10566.Keywords: Ant-plant tubers, Myrmecodia pendens Merr. & Perry, antibacterial activity, Streptococcus sanguis ATCC 10566.

Abstract

Introduction: Age estimation has an important role in the process of human identification and needs to be performed in an efficient, fast, and accurate ways. Age estimation based on the pulp cavity volume of canines was referring to the theory stated that the apposition of secondary dentine during human life could be determined as an age indicator. This study was aimed to estimate the human age based on the pulp volume of canines for chronological estimation. Methods: Forty-one canine teeth from Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D image sample from Dental Hospital of the Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Padjadjaran segmented into dental pulp and enamel were prepared for measurement of pulp volume using the ITK SNAP volumetric software. Descriptive analysis of pulp volume and regression equations were generated from regression analysis of pulp volume and tested for age estimation. Result: Dentine thickness was found to be increased from adolescence age range until adulthood age range. Logarithmic regression between pulp volume was statistically significant (p < 0,001). The coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.753 with a standard deviation of 8.421. Mathematics model for estimating age was: Age = 79.523 – (18.194 x ln(Pulp Volume)). The pulp cavity and dentine thickness were decreasing along the age. The same equation was also used in the same sample. There were several differences between chronological age and estimated age approximately 8.4 years following the regression result of R2 (75.3%). The rest of the sample (24.7%) have a big difference, and this could be affected by modifying variables such as occlusal force and human error measurement procedures. Conclusion: The human age can be estimated by the pulp volume of canines.Keywords: Age estimation, pulp volume, canine, ITK-SNAP, CBCT.

Abstract

Propolis is a resinous material collected by honey bees from various plants. Many types of research have shown that it has antibacterial and anti-inflammation activities. Flavonoid is the main chemical substance in propolis that inhibits bacterial growth and reduces the release of free radicals, suggesting that this component has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. However, there is another chemical substance in propolis that shows antibacterial dan anti-inflammatory activities. The purpose of the present study was to assess the rat dental pulp tissue reaction after capped with propolis derived non-flavonoids extract. Non-flavonoids substances were purified from an ethanol extract of propolis obtained from South Sulawesi, Indonesia. A Class I cavity was prepared on the occlusal surface of the right maxillary first molar in Spraque-Dawley rats. The dental pulp was exposed and then capped with a zinc oxide-based filler as a control (Group I), or non-flavonoids propolis (Group II). Then, each cavity was filled with glass ionomer cement. The animals were sacrificed at week 1, 2, or 4. Biopsy samples were obtained, and these were stained and viewed by light microscopy. The histological examination was based on the presence of polymorph nuclear leukocytes and macrophages. The results showed that pulp inflammation occurred in both groups as early as week 1. However, the inflammation occurred in Group II was relatively milder compared to Group I at all time period. Therefore, present results suggest that application of non-flavonoids propolis extract on rat's dental pulp tissue might inhibit inflammatory process.
