The Correlation of Insomnia to Hyposalivation and Xerostomia in the Elderly: A Single Centre Study
No full textBackground: The ageing process declines body functions and disrupts circadian rhythms, resulting in insomnia. The salivary gland's functions are affected by insomnia as well. Disorders of salivary secretion, such as xerostomia and hyposalivation, are associated with low salivary function levels. Objective: This study investigates the relationship between xerostomia, hyposalivation, and insomnia in the elderly. Method: This study is analytical observational research using a cross-sectional approach. A total of ninety-one residents of Cipayung's Tresna Werdha Budi Mulia 1 nursing home were the subjects of the study. The Summated-Xerostomia Inventory (SXI-id) questionnaire was utilised to measure xerostomia, the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) was employed to measure insomnia, and the unstimulated salivary flow rate based on the spitting method was used to measure salivation. Data analysis was conducted using Spearman's correlation test. Result: A significant linear correlation was observed between the insomnia score and unstimulated salivary flow rate (r = -0.370; p = 0.001) and between the insomnia score and the xerostomia score (r = 0.682). Conclusion: In the elderly, salivary gland secretion might be impacted by insomnia

Methods: Using a self-administered structured questionnaire, descriptive cross-sectional study consisted of 8 items was conducted at faculty of dentistry Prof Dr Moestopo (Beragama) University for the dental students and at province of Jakarta for the dentists. Results: A total of 302 persons (210 dental students and 92 dentists) responded to the questionnaire. In the present study it was found that 30.4% of dental students and 64.1% of the dentists had a good knowledge in oral medicine. All of the dentists were without postgraduate qualification had less than 5 years of work experience (68.5%). Conclusion: The dental students had low knowledge of teledentistry in oral medicine and majority of the dentists had a good knowledge of teledentistry in oral medicine
Kitosan sebagai Bahan Potensial Antikaries: Chitosan as Potential Anti-Caries Agent
No full textCaries is a big challenge in dentistry. Chitosan is a non-toxic natural polysaccharide which has a good characteristic such as biocompatible, non-toxic, biodegradable, easily combined with other substances, and have antibacterial effect. Aim of this paper is to study the ability of chitosan to prevent dental caries. Chitosan has ability to inhibit the growth of cariogenic bacteria, prevent the formation of biofilms, encourage remineralization process and prevent demineralization. It can be concluded that chitosan has a great potency to be used as anticaries agent in dentistry

Get PDF
Introduction: The success of orthodontic treatment is influenced by a number of factors, including nutrition factor. Orthodontic force application is characterized by remodeling changes in the periodontal tissues leading to the phenomenon of tooth movement. Phytoestrogens are estrogen compounds that can maintain the balance of bone resorption formation and its impact on bone remodeling. Isoflavone, one of the phytoestrogen compounds, can be found in soybeans. Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of soy milk (Glycine max (L.) Merill) on tooth movement in orthodontic treatment. Methods: An experimental laboratory post-test with a control group design was used in this research. Twenty four female guinea pigs (Cavia C) were divided into 8 and divided into 3 groups used in this research. Each object was fed with soy-milk flavonoid isolate powder at doses of 3.12 g/kg BW and 6.25 g/kg BW. The data analysis used one-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis, then continued with the Mann-Whitney test. Results: The result of the study showed, soy milk with 6.25 g/kg BW and 3.12 g/kg BW doses were effective on the distance guinea pigs' teeth movement who are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Conclusion: The most effective soy milk for the distance of teeth movement in guinea pigs in orthodontic treatment is a dose of 6.25g/kg WB. The soy milk was effective to the number of tooth distance movement with orthodontic treatment
Frenectomy Using Z-Plasty Technique in Case of Aberrant Frenum on Aesthetic Zone
Get PDFBackground: Aberrant frenum can cause many problems such as central diastema, food impaction, dental caries, and aesthetic problems. This case can be handled with frenectomy, which is Z-Plasty technique can be used to treat thick and wide frenulum associated with papillary penetrate and central diastema. Case Report: A 17 years old girl was referred from orthodontist to Department of Periodontics, RSGM UGM Prof. Soedomo Yogyakarta for treatment of maxillary labial frenulum. Intra-oral examination revealed a diastema on the maxillary central incisor of 2.5 mm and frenulum attachment extended to the palatine papilla. In this case, collaborative perio-ortho treatment was carried out, frenectomy with Z-Plasty technique done to correct thick frenulum and fixed orthodontic treatment to correct central diastema after completion of periodontal treatment. Evaluations are carried out every 7 days for the first 2 weeks then at 3 and 6 months after periodontal procedure. Conclusion: Frenectomy using Z-Plasty technique was able to correct wide and thick frenulum that extends to the palatine papilla. Good wound healing, minimal scarring and color matching the surrounding tissue, and perio-ortho collaboration treatment was successfully carried out with satisfactory results according to the patient's wishes

Pengaruh Metode Pencampuran Coupling Agent Terhadap Sitotoksisitas Komposit Serat Selulosa Sabut Kelapa / Coir: Effect of Coupling Agent Mixing Method on Cytotoxicity of Coconut Coir/Coir Cellulose Fiber Composite
No full textResearch about cellulose fiber from coconut fibers (Cocos nucifera L/coir) was currently done as an organic fillers for dental composite materials. DGEBA was chosen as a coupling agent to obtain covalent chemical bonds between BisGMA, TEDGMA matrices and coir cellulose fibers. The mixing method of DGEBA played an important role in the biocompatibility of the material. The ideal requirement for dental materials must be non-toxic through cytotoxicity tests. Objective to modify the synthesis method of coir-based cellulose as a natural fiber to optimize chemical bonding through polymerization reaction between fiber, coupling agent and matrix. Methods: There were 2 kinds of cellulose synthesis methods, which were (1) synthesis of cellulose solution using DGEBA and ethanol, (2) synthesis of cellulose solution using ethanol without DGEBA. Cytotoxicity test on pulp fibroblast cells with MTT Assay method on coir cellulose fiber composite samples from the two methods. Method 1 cell viability rate for 7 days immersion was 93.30855%, 14 days was 99.07063%, 21 days was 74.53532%. Method 2 obtained 64.68401% for 7 days immersion, 73.79182% for 14 days and 53.15985% for 21 days. Conclusion, the cellulose solution synthesis method using DGEBA and ethanol produces composites with better chemical bonds seen from the results of the cytotoxicity tes
Uji Waktu Pengerasan Gipsum sebagai eksperimen Skills Lab di Universitas Trisakti: Gypsum Setting Time Experiment in Skills Lab Experiment at Universitas Trisakti
No full textGypsum is a material that is commonly used in dentistry as study model or working model. The accuracy of the working model is influenced by the absence of defects in the model. Dental students need to know the gypsum setting time in order to avoid fracture of the model when opening the model from negative impression before reaching final setting time. Gypsum setting time can be affected by several factors such as water temperature, water ratio, room temperature and mixing speed. Measurement of gypsum setting time has been done before, however, the number of samples used was still few. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the setting time of gypsum with different water/powder ratio on a big number of samples. This research was done by dental students of Faculty of Dentistry, Universitas Trisakti as one of Dental Material’s Courses. A total of three types of water ratios were used in this study, namely 27 cc, 30 cc and 33 cc (n = 141). Type III gypsum powder was weighed with the same weight of 100 gr and then mixed by different water ratios for 60 seconds. Gypsum mixture was placed on a container and vibrated for 60 seconds to eliminate pores. The placement of a small needle to measure the setting time begins at the 150th second and was repeated in multiples of 30 seconds until the tip of the needle did not penetrate the gypsum mixture. The results showed that more water ratio caused the setting time of gypsum type III increased
