Abstract

Introduction: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) exhibits the capability to weaken human immune system. The infected subject will later be more susceptible to suffer from opportunistic diseases when the CD4 cell count is lesser than 200 cell/µL. Oral thrush, periodontal disease and xerostomia are common oral manifestations in AIDS patient which initially indicate the presence of HIV infection. This study was aimed to analyse the correlation between the socio-demographic characteristics and clinical profile with oral manifestations of HIV/AIDS patients. Methods: An analytic study with cross-sectional approach was conducted towards the clinical profile and oral manifestation data of HIV/AIDS patients, which obtained from secondary data in the form of medical record. The 55 samples were taken with total sampling technique. Results: The chi-square test found no significant correlation between HIV/AIDS patients socio-demographic and oral manifestations and several significant correlation of the HIV/AIDS patients' clinical profile with the oral manifestation as follows: the total number of CD4 and ARV therapy duration was significantly correlated with the HIV/AIDS patients with candidiasis and oral thrush (p=0.01); while in patients with periodontal disease was only significantly correlated  with the total number of CD4 (p=0.02); and no significant correlation found in HIV/AIDS patients with xerostomia. Conclusion: There is no correlation between HIV/AIDS patients socio-demographic and oral manifestations. There is a correlation between several HIV/AIDS patients clinical profile with the oral manifestation. The number of CD4 cells and the ARV therapy duration was correlated with patients with candidiasis and oral thrush, while in patients with periodontal disease on correlated with the number and CD4 cells. HIV/AIDS patients with xerostomia have no correlation with any of their clinical profile.

Abstract

Introduction: Premature loss mainly occurs in mixed dentition periods in their maxillary deciduous and/or mandibular canine, first molar, and/or second molar. The mixed dentition stage occurs in elementary school-aged children, mark with malocclusions and tooth decays, which can be observed from a very high def-t index. This condition will also lead to an abnormal molar relationship. This study was aimed to analyse the correlation of premature loss and molar relationship of mixed dentition children with a very high def-t index. Methods: An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted towards 43 elementary children of Ciawi, Cikeruh 1, and Cikeruh 2 Public Elementary School (SDN), Jatinangor Regency, West Java, Indonesia, aged 7-9 years. The sample was chosen using the purposive sampling method, based on the sample criteria and their willingness to be research subjects. The premature loss of deciduous teeth and primary first molar relationship were observed through extraoral and intraoral examination. The correlation of the premature loss and molar relationship was analysed using Spearman’s rank correlation test. Results: Premature loss significantly affected the permanent first molars relationship in children with no succedaneous teeth (p=0.02, p<0.05), however, it was showed no significant effect in children with succedaneous teeth (p=0.07, p>0.05). The Spearman’s rank correlation test results showed a positive correlation between premature loss and molar relationship of mixed dentition children with a very high def-t index. Conclusion: Premature loss significantly affected the permanent first molars relationship in children with no succedaneous teeth. However, it was showed no significant effect in children with succedaneous teeth. A positive correlation is found between premature loss and molar relationship of mixed dentition children with a very high def-t index. The higher the premature loss, the more abnormal molar relationship will be found in mixed dentition children with a very high def-t index.

Abstract

Introduction: Early childhood period has a high caries risk that needs special attention from parents, especially the mothers, as their role models. Mothers’ knowledge and positive behaviour towards oral health care are essential in preventive dentistry since it is the crucial thing that can support the children’s oral hygiene. Purpose of study was aimed to analyse the relationship between the mother’s knowledge and behaviour regarding oral health with the early childhood oral health status. Methods: Type of study was a cross-sectional study with correlational research method. The material from this research were questionnaires and standard instruments for an oral examination. The study was conducted on 44 children of the early childhood period and their mothers, which was chosen as sample using a purposive sampling technique for respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The inclusion criteria were mothers who took up their children to the mother and children’s health centre, children in the early childhood period with complete deciduous teeth eruption, and willing to participate in the research. A Kendall’s-tau test was used for statistical analysis. Results: The results showed that the def-t index was 7.6 (very high) and there was a significant relationship between mother’s knowledge (p-value=0.0001) and behaviour (p-value=0.004) towards oral health status of the children (def-t index). The results also showed strong correlation coefficient to knowledge (τ = -0.643) and sufficient correlation coefficient to behaviour (τ = -0.415). Ironically, mothers with sufficient knowledge regarding the children’s oral health are not fully reflected in daily oral hygiene practice. The mean value of caries teeth in each child was seven teeth, mostly found in children with mothers with poor oral health knowledge and behaviour. Conclusion: There is a strong relationship between mother’s knowledge and oral health status of early childhood, while the mother’s behaviour and oral health status has a moderate relationship.

Abstract

Introduction: Odontectomy is a minor surgical procedure that often results in dental anxiety. Dental anxiety can interfere during odontectomy treatment. Dental anxiety can be examined using the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) and through the level of the salivary alpha-amylase enzyme, both of which are dental anxiety biomarkers. The objective of this study was to analyse the correlation between anxiety values with salivary alpha-amylase levels using MDAS as an indicator of anxiety in pre-odontectomy patients. Methods: This study was conducted on 60 research samples of women aged 18-40 years who came to the minor surgery clinic of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Universitas Padjadjaran Dental Hospital, to have odontectomy treatment of maxillary or mandibular third molars impaction, not having systemic and oral diseases, and willing to participate in this study. Patients who met the inclusion criteria then required to sign the research consent statement; afterwards, the MDAS data was taken. The salivary alpha-amylase enzyme data was taken using the Cocoro meter (Nipro, Japan) tip which was kept under the tongue for 30 seconds, then the tip was inserted into the monitor, and the enzyme levels would be counted. The data obtained will be analysed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Results: The results showed that there was a significant relationship (p < 0.01) with a strong positive correlation (r = 0.85). Conclusion: There is a correlation between MDAS value and salivary alpha-amylase enzyme as an indicator of dental anxiety.

Abstract

Introduction: Saliva is a complex oral fluid that is secreted by the major and minor salivary glands which have a vital role in sustaining oral hard and soft tissues. The calcium ion is one of the inorganic components of saliva, which plays a vital role in maintaining the tooth enamel integrity through the remineralisation process. The compliance of calcium intake for the body and the enhancement of calcium ions in saliva can be affected by consumption of fruits that comprise lots of calcium. Consumption of fruit containing high calcium can increase buffer capacity, support remineralisation and prevent demineralisation. One of the fruits with rich calcium is red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus). The purpose of this study was to analyse the difference between the salivary calcium ion level before and after consumption of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) on the students of Faculty of Dentistry Syiah Kuala University batch 2017. Methods: This study was pre-experimental with one group pretest-posttest design. The number of subjects in this study was 32 people with one group pretest-posttest design. Saliva was collected by spitting method five times. Results: The average salivary calcium ion before consumption of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) was 1.972, and the average value of salivary calcium ion after consumption of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) was 2.378. Results of the statistical test using the paired t-test showed a significant difference of the salivary calcium ion before and after consumption of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) with the p-value = 0.000 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There is a difference of the salivary calcium ion level before and after consumption of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus).

Abstract

Introduction: The 1% sodium hypochlorite and Castor oil are disinfectants which show good bactericidal and fungicidal properties, although sodium hypochlorite is more commonly used. However, the use of 1% sodium hypochlorite could influence the color stability. In other hands, Castor oil does not cause any significant changes on the color stability of the acrylic resin. This research, therefore, was aimed to analyse the effect of heat polymerized acrylic resin base disinfection with sodium hypochlorite and castor oil (Ricinus communis) oil on colour stability. Methods: This research was laboratory experimental research. The total of 30 samples was determined by using Federer’s formula, divided into 3 groups with different disinfection treatment: Group A (1% Sodium Hypochlorite); Group B (10% Castor oil (Ricinus communis); and Group C (distilled water) as control group. The sample was obtained from the master model based on the ADA No.12 specification and was needed to calculate color stability. All data was then statistically analysed with the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by an LSD test. The measurement of color stability was performed using a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer following the Beer-Lambert Law. Results: Color stability results for group A, B, and C were 0.059 ± 0.038, 0.105 ± 0.041 and 0.136 ± 0.052, consecutively. The Kruskal-Wallis test results obtained a significance level of p = 0.005 (p < 0.05) indicated a difference in the color stability of heat polymerized acrylic resin denture after disinfected with 1% sodium hypochlorite and 10% castor oil. Disinfection of 1% sodium hypochlorite causes the change in the colour stability of the heat polymerized acrylic resin compared to the control group, while disinfection of 10% castor oil did not. There was found a significant difference in the colour stability of the heat polymerized acrylic resin between disinfection with 1% sodium hypochlorite and 10% castor oil (p = 0.027 < 0.05). Conclusions: The colour stability of heat polymerized acrylic resin is not changed after disinfection with 10% Castor (Ricinus communis).

Abstract

Introduction: Saliva contains numerous proteins and electrolytes that may serve as biomarkers of pathological conditions, including periodontitis. Saliva flow also influenced by pathological conditions, such as periodontitis. Therefore, saliva analysis, as one of the biomarker source needs to be examined. This study was aimed to analyse the differences salivary inorganic ions levels (calcium, phosphate, and bicarbonate) and salivary flow rate in periodontitis and non-periodontitis patients. Methods: This research was analytic-observational using two groups, the healthy periodontal group consisting of 21 people (PI scores between 0-0.2) and the periodontitis group consisting of 21 people (PI scores between 0.7-8.0). Unstimulated saliva was collected using a passive drolling method. The calcium, phosphate and bicarbonate levels in the saliva were analysed using UV/Vis spectrophotometers. Results: Calcium, phosphate and bicarbonate levels in saliva were different between groups. Salivary flow rate also different between groups. There was a significant difference (p = 0.00) in the calcium, phosphate and bicarbonate levels between groups (t-test), and also significantly different (p = 0.000) salivary flow rate between groups. The higher the salivary flow rate, the higher the levels of calcium, phosphate and bicarbonate would be. Conclusion: Periodontitis condition increases the level of salivary inorganic ions and salivary flow rate because of periodontal inflammation. This inflammation mainly because of plaque deposition and calculus. Increased level of inorganic ions in the saliva such as calcium, phosphate, and bicarbonate, and also the salivary flow rate indicates the existence of a periodontal disease.
