<![CDATA[Introduction: Recently, various modes of fluoride varnishes have evolved, each with its own recommended concentration, potentially active ingredients, and flavour, leading to a claim of additional preventive benefits. Differences in fluoride release patterns can potentially enhance or reduce the efficacy of fluoride varnishes. Numerous clinical trials have proven its ability in preventing and arresting dental caries. This study mainly focused on the investigations of the apatite demineralisation process under the effect of different fluoride varnishes by ion-selective electrodes (ISE), in an attempt to comprehend their mechanism in anti-caries. Methods: Four different fluoride varnishes (Fluor Protector S, Duraphat, ClinPro White, MI Varnish) were used to measure their effect on the demineralisation process of the hydroxyapatite (HAP) discs in 60ml pH 4.0 acetic solutions. The HAP discs were treated with these varnishes after 4-hours demineralisation and then immersed back into the same solutions for further demineralisation to observe the effect of the varnishes. Throughout the experiment, the calcium ISE was used to monitor the rate of calcium concentration. Results: The result demonstrated that ClinPro White varnish resulted in the most significant inhibition of demineralisation and signs of probable remineralisation throughout the experiment. Other fluoride varnishes treatment showed the ability to inhibit demineralisation. However, the rate of calcium dissolution was not significantly different from different varnishes. The fact that the ClinPro White showed evidence of remineralisation might be associated with the fact that the varnish contained a source of calcium and phosphate. Conclusion: The fluoride varnishes treatment is shown to be effective in inhibiting the demineralisation of apatite regardless of the difference in fluoride concentration and potentially active ingredients incorporated in some of the fluoride varnishes.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Dental implants have become a more desirable treatment for replacing missing teeth. The mechanical properties and biocompatibility of titanium and zirconia are excellent, but they are less bioactive. The chemical composition of the carbonate apatite is similar to enamel and dentin. Geopolymers are inorganic polymers, and they are similar to ceramics. They have excellent mechanical properties, bioactivity, biocompatibility. The purpose of this study was to assess histomorphological evaluation of geopolymer-carbonated apatite nanocomposites implanted on rabbit tibia at early bone healing in vivo. Methods: Geopolymer-CHA nanocomposites with a diameter of 3 mm and length of 6 mm was placed in the tibia of eight male New Zealand White rabbit whose body weight is 3 to 3.5 kg and six-month ages. Experimental subjects were randomly assigned to 2 groups for assessing the bone healing capability around samples to 14 and 28 days histomorphologically. Wilcoxon test was performed, and p<0.05 was considered significant, using Minitab software version 13. Results: Granulation tissue, woven, and lamellar bone was analysed. A reactive bone formation was revealed in the 14th day. Osteoblasts, osteoids, and osteocytes showed more mature and woven bone became denser on the 28th day. Conclusion: Geopolymer-CHA nanocomposites could be considered a candidate for dental implant material from this histomorphological evaluation.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Candida albicans can cause quiet high prevalance of root canal treatment failure (35%). Candida albicans are difficult to eliminate and resistant to Calsium hydroxide. Therefore the research was conduct to determinate sterilization material which is effective as antifungal material to eliminate Candida albicans so can minimize the possibility of falure in root canal treatment. Purpose Obtain the optimum concentration of paste that consist of Calsium hydroxide powder combine with Cresatin liquid against the Candida albicans and must be safe to used in root canal tratement medication. Method: The initial examination of antifungal activities was carried out using the disc diffusion with spread plate technique. Medium that used in this method is Medium SGA (Saburoud’s Glucose Agar). Result: The result of the One-way ANOVA test showed a significant value of p= 0,000 (p<0,05). The result of Least Significant Difference test showed that each group had a significant difference because the value of p=0 (p<0,05). There is significant difference between each group. Conclusion: The most effective as antifungal against Candida albicans is in mixing 1:2 of calsium hydroxide powder and Cresotin liquid which mean 1 full measuring spoon and 2 drops of Cresotin liquid. Mixture of Ca(OH)2 with metacresylacetate produce a chemical reaction namely calsium cresilate and Acetic acid. Calsium cresilate is strong disinfectant. Acetic Acid dissociates and releases hydroxyl ions (H+). Changes in pH cause the transformation of Candida albicans from Y form into M form so it inhibitis cell division. ]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Malocclusion has an impact on the quality of life, thus becoming the motivation for orthodontic treatment. Subjective and objective needs for orthodontic treatment vary, where subjective needs are sometimes higher or maybe lower than objective needs, vice versa. The Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN) is an index used to see the level of treatment needs. This study was aimed to analyse the correlation of orthodontic treatment motivation and the level of treatment needs based on the index of orthodontic treatment need (IOTN) of orthodontic patients. Methods: The research was correlation analytical. The motivation for orthodontic treatment was assessed using a questionnaire consisted of aspects of oral health motivation, oral function, aesthetics, psychosocial, and influence from others. The level of orthodontic treatment needs was assessed using the IOTN dental health component. Results: It was found that the patients’ motivation related to aesthetics was high. The motivation to get orthodontic treatment due to oral health, oral function, and psychosocial conditions was moderate, while related to the influence of others was low. The level of need for grade 4 treatment shows the largest percentage (48.57%). Gamma correlation analysis between motivation variables related to the oral and psychosocial function with the level of treatment needs showed a significantly positive correlation with the p-values of 0.003 and 0.022, categorized as weak correlation. Conclusion: There is a weak correlation of orthodontic treatment motivation and the level of treatment needs based on the index of orthodontic treatment need (IOTN) of orthodontic patients.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Many research proves that fluorapatite cement is one of the materials in dentistry that can restore and treat severe carious lesions. The current research was aimed to study the chemical reaction of calcium phosphate cement (CPC), calcite, and calcium fluoride as a base in fabricating the fluorapatite cement as an anti-caries agent. Methods: The type of research is a descriptive method. The preparation of DCPA was initially performed by measuring 0.2g of DCPA powder which was prepared for 15 samples. Fluorapatite was fabricated using dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (DCPA), calcite (CaCO3) as the precursor to form carbonate apatite crystal, and calcium fluoride (CaF2). CaF2 will be mixed into sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4) with different percentages, 1%, 5%, and 10%. The samples were then incubated for 24 hours at 37˚C under 100% moisture condition. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) characterization will be conducted to determine the phase composition and crystallinity of fluorapatite. In addition, the samples were analyzed with the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) examination to determine the crystal functional group. Results: All of the samples showed a satisfactory setting reaction. The XRD characterization results showed the formation of the crystal apatite phase at 32.43˚ and 32.83˚. The FTIR results indicated the stretching vibration of the fluoride compound at 1400 cm-1. The intensity formation of the apatite crystal phase at particular degrees was not as high as the standard hydroxyapatite data due to the incomplete formation of apatite crystal within 24 hours—the stretching vibration presence in the FTIR graph at 1400 cm-1 proven to be fluorapatite cement. Conclusions: Fluorapatite cement as an anti-caries agent can be fabricated through the mixing process of DCPA, CaCO3, and CaF2 powders with NaH2PO4 solution.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Ameloglyphics is the study of enamel print patterns on the tooth surface. Enamel print patterns are unique to each individual as they differ on each tooth. The similarity of tooth prints on buccal and lingual surfaces remains questionable as no research has been conducted thus far. The premolar was chosen in this experiment due to its low risk of damage because it is protected by cheek and rarely used compared to other teeth. Thus, the results obtained will be more precise and have higher accuracy than using other teeth. This research was aimed to investigate the differences between enamel print patterns on buccal and lingual surfaces of maxillary right first premolar. Methods: An analytic study was conducted by observing and analysing a total of 34 teeth samples using the purposive sampling method. The middle third of the buccal and lingual tooth surfaces was captured directly after magnified with a stereomicroscope. Photomicrographs of samples were then analysed using SourceAFIS biometric software. This software will process the image and shows patterns of enamel print. Afterwards, the enamel print patterns were observed and classified according to Manjunath Classification. Results: The results suggested that all 34 samples show a similarity of enamel print patterns on both the buccal and lingual surfaces. The interpretations of photomicrographs were statistically analysed using the Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS) software. The similarity may be due to the same placement of developing tooth bud, temperature, environmental factor, genetics, pressure and nutrition to the ameloblasts cells in a tooth. Conclusion: Both buccal and lingual in the samples show high similarity due to the very high frequencies of similar sub-patterns occur on both surfaces. Tooth print can be used as a valuable tool in forensic science for personal identification with good prospects in the field of forensic dentistry.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Cleft lip and palate is the most common craniofacial malformations, which is a congenital deformity of lip and palate or both. Anterior crossbite is occlusal characteristics that are often found in patients with cleft lip and palate who had surgery, caused by dentoalveolar or skeletal abnormalities, can be distinguished based on the cephalometric analysis. This research was aimed to analyse the correlation between the severity of anterior crossbite and skeletal deformities in post-surgery cleft lip and palate among children. Methods: The research design was an analytic correlation with the sample selection based on purposive sampling. The research was conducted from 14 cleft lip and palate patients in the primary dentition (aged 4-6 years old) who had surgery (for 2-3 years) using analysis of study models and cephalometric digital. Statistical analysis was conducted by Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient test to analyse the relationship between the severity of anterior crossbite with skeletal deformities. Results: Statistic test showed that 42.86% of the anterior crossbite in the cleft lip and palate post-surgery in primary dentition had a very high level of severity, thus leading to very poor occlusion. As many as 21.43% had a high level of severity, which leads to poor occlusion, and 35.71% had a moderate level of severity, which leads to fair occlusion. The Spearman Coefficient of Rank Correlation test results showed a weak correlation between the severity of anterior crossbite with skeletal deformities with coefficient relation of 0.13 and p-value of 0.48 (p<0.05). Conclusion: There is a weak correlation between the severity of anterior crossbite with skeletal deformities in post-surgery cleft lip and palate among children.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Alveolar osteitis is the most common complication after tooth extraction, which occurs 2 to 4 days after and causes disruption of wound healing. Pucuk Bungur/Queen’s crepe myrtle (Lagerstroemia speciosa) and aloe vera have biological and pharmacological benefits in experimental animals: antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant. They also affect the wound healing process. These benefits are a good combination as an alternative remedy for alveolar osteitis treatment. This study was aimed to analyse the effect of Lagerstroemia speciosa compared to aloe vera extracts gel on the wound healing process after tooth extraction in Sprague-Dawley mice with alveolar osteitis. Methods: This research was an experimental laboratory. Twenty-seven Sprague-Dawley mice were randomly divided into three groups. The first group was the osteitis (control) group treated with 1:1000 adrenaline insertion for 1 minute on the left maxillary first molars socket; the second group was the osteitis group administered with the application of Lagerstroemia speciosa, and the third group was the osteitis group administered with the application of aloe vera gel. Normal mice in the control group were not given any treatment, only osteitis mice. The interleukin-6 level was examined after, and the number of osteoblasts was also calculated on the 3rd, 5th and 14th day after the necropsy was performed. Data were analysed with one-way ANOVA to compare the effectiveness of wound healing of alveolar osteitis in each group. Results: From the data analysis, the osteitis group applied with Lagerstroemia speciosa gel had good activity in the inflammation phase of the healing process of alveolar osteitis compared to other groups. Conclusion: Lagerstroemia speciosa can be a potential alternative treatment to reduce inflammation and accelerate the healing of osteitis because it shortens the inflammatory phase and accelerates collagen production in wound healing.]]>
