Cavity cleanser is needed to remove smear layers and eliminate microbes. In this context, lerak fruit decoction (Sapindus rarak DC) is an important natural material used as an alternative to 2% CHX. The fruit effectively removes smear layers, possesses antimicrobial properties, and shows low surface tension. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the effectiveness of lerak fruit decoction as an alternative material for cavity cleanser material. The laboratory experiment commences with boiling 100 grams of lerak fruit in 100 ml of distilled water to obtain MIC and MBC values with the Dilution and Drop Plates Miles Misra method. The results of ANOVA and LSD tests show that lerak fruit decoction has antibacterial effect with MIC and MBC values of 12.5% and 25%, respectively. This research serves as the foundation for further investigations into lerak fruit decoction, considering the availability, biocompatibility, affordability, and ease of processing. Moreover, it can be concluded that 25% lerak fruit decoction has similar antibacterial ability to 2% CHX against Streptococcus mutans.
龋齿需要清洁剂来去除涂抹层和消除微生物。在这方面,无患子煎剂(Sapindus rarak DC)是一种重要的天然材料,可作为 2% CHX 的替代品。无患子能有效去除涂抹层,具有抗菌特性,表面张力低。因此,本研究旨在分析勒拉果煎剂作为龋齿清洁剂替代材料的有效性。实验室实验首先将 100 克叶腊果放入 100 毫升蒸馏水中煮沸,然后用稀释和滴板 Miles Misra 法得出 MIC 和 MBC 值。方差分析和 LSD 检验结果表明,勒拉果煎剂具有抗菌效果,其 MIC 值和 MBC 值分别为 12.5% 和 25%。考虑到勒拉果煎剂的可获得性、生物相容性、经济性和易加工性,这项研究为进一步研究勒拉果煎剂奠定了基础。此外,还可以得出结论,25% 的勒拉果煎剂对变异链球菌的抗菌能力与 2% 的 CHX 相似。

Access to equal oral health attention is the right of all human beings, including orphan children with hearing loss or deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) conditions. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the correlation between the level of oral hygiene and caries indexing among the sub-population of DHH orphans receiving special care at Karya Murni orphanage in Medan City. A cross-sectional design was used with non-probability sampling to select 58 orphans willing to engage in the Oral Hygiene Index-Simplified (OHI-S) and mean of Decayed, Missing, and Filled Permanent Teeth (DMFT) assessment during dental and oral cavity screening after participating in counseling activities. Furthermore, the results showed a positive correlation (p=0.007) between oral hygiene and caries, suggesting that OHI-S impacted DMFT by approximately 34.9%, with both index scores presenting proportional equivalence. There is a need to conduct regular dental health monitoring along with education on visual methods and sign language among DHH orphans. Additionally, DHH orphan caregivers should actively engage in enhancing personal health behaviors, particularly to maintain oral and dental health.

Respiratory system is affected by a novel type of virus known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The gold standard for its identification is the real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) test, despite being invasive and dangerous to medical workers during the sample-collecting process. However, major salivary glands including the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual, as well as smaller glands dispersed throughout the mouth cavity, release saliva, a hypotonic fluid, containing biomarkers that can be used to identify both local and systemic disorders, including SARS-CoV-2. This fluid can be utilized as a non-invasive, low-risk diagnostic test by medical professionals since it provides insights into patient's overall health. This study aims to determine the potential of saliva as a substitute for other SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic methods. The results from analysis of 5 scientific publications, showed that saliva contained SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA, making it suitable for patient diagnostic testing. Considering the results, the fluid was discovered to be an alternative diagnostic test for patient with the virus.

Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is a prevalent oral disease that detrimentally impacts the quality of life for those affected. One of the several factors that can trigger the emergence of RAS is stress. Psychological stress can adversely affect health and decrease the immune system. Studies in the field of Psychoneuroimmunology have shown the relationship between human behaviour, nerve function, and psychological stress, which can potentially act as a cause of disease and reduce the immunity of the oral mucosa. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the correlation between stress and the incidence of Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis on Bank BRI Tulungagung Employees. It is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach, involving male bank employees with a marketing position, aged between 27 and 40 years. Data were analyzed and interpreted using the Chi-square test with a nominal variable data scale. The results showed that the asymp. value sig (2-sided) is 0.000, indicating a significant relationship. In conclusion, there is a relationship between stress and Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis.

ancellous and cortical bone loss in postmenopausal women can be caused by a lack of estrogen, which plays an important role in growth and maturation. The panoramic mandibular index (PMI) also detects loss of bone mass and is a reference for individuals at high risk of developing osteoporosis. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the PMI value in Batak women with postmenopausal conditions using a descriptive survey correlation cross-sectional method. The samples were panoramic radiographs of Batak women with postmenopausal conditions aged >52 years and premenopausal as controls. Furthermore, the data was tested using an Unpaired T-test and the average PMI values in the premenopausal and postmenopausal Batak women groups were 0.327 ± 0.058 and 0.296 ± 0.063, respectively. Statistical analysis indicated a significant difference (p < 0.05, specifically 0.027) in PMI values between the premenopausal and postmenopausal Batak women. These findings showed that PMI served as a reliable indicator of bone loss and potentially aid in identifying individuals at a higher risk of developing osteoporosis.

Oral epithelial dysplasia is an abnormal cytology and architectural change that can develop into oral malignancy with a high mortality rate. Centella asiatica leaves possesses the potential to act as a chemopreventive agent and is known for its relative safety and ease of obtainability. Therefore, this study aimed to determine effect of Centella asiatica leaves extract on dysplasia induced by dimethylbenz [a] anthracene (DMBA) with scratch and incision. The in vivo study involved 21 Wistar rats (Rattus novergicus) divided into three groups. The groups received 2% Centella asiatica leaves methanolic extract orally by force-feeding once daily, from day 1 until day 61. At day 29, dysplasia was induced by scratching the buccal mucosa of each rat using a syringe containing 0.5% DMBA. This was conducted with incision 1 cm in length and half angle in depth, 1 cm in length and 1 mm in depth, and 2 cm in length and 1 mm in depth for groups 1, 2, and 3. Furthermore, the rats were sacrificed, and histopathological analysis was performed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. The degree of dysplasia was assessed using the WHO 2017 classification, and the data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. Meanwhile, the statistical test showed significant difference in the degree of dysplasia for all groups. It can be concluded that Centella asiatica methanolic extract leaves possesses the potential to be a chemopreventive agent in reducing dysplasia levels.

The decrease in the production of estrogen and progesterone hormones in menopausal women may result in a condition called xerostomia, which is characterized by the subjective perception of dry mouth. This condition can be treated by using a chemical or mechanical stimulus. Therefore, the aims of this study were to identify the chemical content of forest honey as well as to determine the effect of its usage as a 20% mouth rinse on the salivary flow rate in menopausal women with xerostomia at RSGM Universitas of Sumatera Utara. This is an experimental study, which was designed using a single-blind randomized pretest-posttest control group. The inclusion criteria were menopausal women aged 40-65 years old with xerostomia, were not undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment for the neck and head, had no systemic diseases, such as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and kidney failure, and not consuming medication that could affect the normal saliva function. Subjects who were not cooperative during the study procedures were excluded. The sample population consisted of 30 menopausal women with xerostomia, which were divided into two groups. The first group was treated by asking them to gargle with 20% honey solution, while the second group, which served as a control used distilled water. Saliva was collected before and after treatment into a pot for 5 minutes using the spitting method, and the data collected were analyzed with T-test. The results showed that forest honey was rich in diastase enzyme and it increased the salivary flow rate, with p-value=0.000<0.05. Based on these findings, the use of 20% honey solution had a significant effect in increasing the salivary flow rate in menopausal women with xerostomia.

Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) refers to persistent medical conditions that affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and related structures. Studies showed that stress was closely linked to the development of TMD. Furthermore, healthcare students are particularly susceptible to stress compared to the general population. This can have a negative impact on their quality of life and mental health during their training. The increased prevalence of TMD has also been reported among the same cohort of the population. However, there is a lack of literature published highlighting the prevalence of TMD and their association with increased levels of stress in dental students. This study aims to explore whether increased stress levels are associated with the prevalence of TMD in undergraduate dental students. A total of 218 dental students participated. Two online self-reported questionnaires consisted of structured case history on past medical and dental history with a Fonseca Amnestic Index (FAI) questionnaire used to identify the prevalence of TMD and DESS questionnaire for stress prediction were used. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22 with a p-value less than 0.05. It was reported that about 48% of students had various TMD with no significant association found between the year of study and gender. However, a significant association was reported between stress gender. A positive correlation was also found between stress and TMD among participants. This study revealed a significant association between stress and the prevalence of TMD in undergraduate dental students. Educational institutions must adopt coping strategies to help trainees manage their psychological stress, which could reduce the incidence of TMD.
颞下颌关节紊乱(Temporomandibular joint disorder, TMD)是指影响颞下颌关节(TMJ)及相关结构的持续性疾病。研究表明,压力与TMD的发展密切相关。此外,与一般人群相比,医疗保健专业的学生特别容易受到压力的影响。这可能会对他们在训练期间的生活质量和心理健康产生负面影响。据报道,在同一人群中,TMD患病率也有所增加。然而,缺乏文献发表强调TMD的患病率及其与牙科学生压力水平增加的关系。本研究旨在探讨压力水平的增加是否与牙科本科生TMD的患病率有关。共有218名牙科学生参与。两份在线自我报告问卷包括结构化的既往病史和牙科病史,以及用于确定TMD患病率的Fonseca遗忘指数(FAI)问卷和用于预测压力的DESS问卷。数据分析采用SPSS version 22, p值小于0.05。据报道,约48%的学生有不同的TMD,在学习年份和性别之间没有明显的联系。然而,据报道,压力性别之间存在显著关联。在参与者中,压力与TMD之间也存在正相关。本研究揭示了压力与牙科本科学生TMD患病率之间的显著关联。教育机构必须采取应对策略,帮助学员管理心理压力,从而降低TMD的发生率。

Heat-cured acrylic resin is the most commonly used denture base material due to its biological, mechanical, chemical, and physical properties. Denture cleaning, which is essential for successful denture use, can be facilitated by utilizing cinnamon extract Cinnamomum burmannii 20% and chlorhexidine 0.2% as effective cleaning agents. However, these materials can affect the physical properties of denture, such as a dimensional change. The design of this study is experimental laboratories, aimed at identifying the effect of immersing denture base in extract Cinnamomum burmannii 20% and chlorhexidine 0.2% for 1 year (92 hours) to dimensional change of heat-cured acrylic resin. The sample consists of 30 heat-cured acrylic resin with sizes 65 mm x 10 mm x 2.5 mm, divided into 3 groups of treatment. After the entire study design has been carried out, data was analyzed by Univariat and one-way Anova and the result showed the significant of p = 0,001 (p<0,05). In this study, it was seen the the value of the dimensional change that was immersed in extract Cinnamomum burmannii 20% resulted in a smaller dimensional change value compared to chlorhexidine 0.2%.
热固化丙烯酸树脂因其生物、机械、化学和物理性能而成为最常用的义齿基托材料。义齿的清洁是义齿成功使用的必要条件,使用20%肉桂提取物和0.2%氯己定作为有效的清洁剂可以促进义齿的清洁。然而,这些材料会影响义齿的物理特性,如尺寸变化。本研究设计为实验实验室,旨在确定义齿基托在肉桂提取物20%和氯己定0.2%中浸泡1年(92小时)对热固化丙烯酸树脂尺寸变化的影响。样品由30个尺寸为65mm x 10mm x 2.5 mm的热固化丙烯酸树脂组成,分为3组处理。整个研究设计完成后,对数据进行单变量和单因素方差分析,结果显示p = 0.001 (p< 0.05)的显著性。在本研究中,我们可以看到,与0.2%的氯己定相比,浸在肉桂提取物中20%的尺寸变化值更小。

Patients visiting the dentist for treatment may have different comorbidities, which refers to the existence of multiple disorders in an individual during a specific period. These comorbidities consist of both physical and psychological illness, occurring alongside the primary condition of patients, and potentially worsening their overall health condition. The condition adversely affects patients survival and can have an impact on the physiological burden, as well as on treatment options. Therefore, this retrospective descriptive study aimed to determine the distribution and frequency of comorbid diseases in dental extraction patients using secondary data from medical records and at the Special Dental and Oral Hospital (RSKGM) FKG UI from 2018 to 2020. Based on 718 samples of medical records of tooth extraction patients, 341 patients, accounting for 47.5% had comorbid diseases, with a percentage of 61.87% and 38.13% for female and male patients, respectively. The most common comorbid disease occurred in the age group of 21–30 years with a percentage of 38.4%. Furthermore, the most common comorbid disease found in tooth extraction patients was digestive disorders, followed by hypertension, accounting for 56.6% and 23.5%, respectively. Most of the indications for tooth extraction were root gangrene at 32.6%, followed by pulpal gangrene with a percentage of 30.8%. The results of this study indicate that most of the patients with tooth extraction had comorbid diseases and the most frequently found were gastrointestinal disorders and hypertension.
