Pendahuluan: Pencabutan gigi merupakan prosedur yang sering dilakukan di kedokteran gigi. Setelah pencabutan gigi akan dihasilkan suatu perlukaan. Proses penyembuhan luka dapat dipercepat pada kondisi tertentu. Salah satu bahan alami yang dapat membantu proses penyembuhan luka adalah getah tanaman betadine (Jatropha multifida L.). Penelitian bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas getah tanaman betadine terhadap penyembuhan luka dan terhadap tanda-tanda infeksi pasca pencabutan gigi Metode: Desain penelitian studi eksperimental laboratorium dengan rancangan penelitian post-test only control group design menggunakan 30 ekor tikus Sprague-Dawley. Teknik pengambilan sampel yaitu convenience sampling. Sampel dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok yaitu kelompok perlakuan dan kelompok kontrol. Kelompok perlakuan diberikan getah tanaman betadine dan kelompok kontrol diberikan asam traneksamat secara oral menggunakan sonde lambung. Tunggu selama 4 jam setelah pemberian getah tanaman betadine dan asam traneksamat. Anestesi pada tikus menggunakan ketamin 50 mg/kg berat badan secara intramuskular kemudian dilakukan pencabutan pada gigi tikus. Pengamatan dilakukan dengan melihat kriteria klinis pada hari 1,3,7 dan diperhatikan sampai luka sembuh serta lihat tanda-tanda infeksi. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji normalitasShapiro Wilik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa data berdistribusi tidak normal. Analisis data dilanjutkan menggunakan uji statistik mann whitney. Hasil: Terdapat perbedaan signifikan penyembuhan luka soket pasca pencabutan gigi setelah diberikan getah betadine dan asam traneksamat dengan nilai p=0,037 (p

Background: One of the common frequently performed procedures in dentistry is tooth extraction. After tooth extraction, a series of biological events occurs in the alveolar socket that ultimately results in healing of the socket. Binahong (Anredera cordifolia) is an herbaceous plant that contains active compounds that may accelerate the wound healing process. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of 3% binahong leaf extract gel on the healing process of the postextraction wound. Methods: 3% binahong leaf extract gel was prepared with the composition of 1 g carbopol, 1 g hydroxypropilmethylcellulose (HPMC), 4 g glycerin, 3 g triethanolamine (TEA), 0.04 g Nipagin, 0.04 g Nipasol, 1.2 g binahong leaf extract and Aq ad 40 g. A total of 18 people were subjected to tooth extraction and were then divided into two groups, with nine people in the binahong group and nine in the control group. Following that, residual socket volume (RSV) was examined on days 3, 7 and 14 after the extraction in both the binahong and control groups. The RSV value was obtained by calculating the mesiodistal x bucolingual width x the depth probing and measured using a calliper and probe. Repeated analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Friedman test followed by Wilcoxon and dependent t-test (p

Pendahuluan: Staphylococcus aureus merupakan mikroorganisme dalam rongga mulut yang bersifat patogen. Di Indonesia, penyakit infeksi masih menjadi masalah umum terutama pada rongga mulut, untuk itu dikembangkan obat antibakteri yang berasal dari tumbuhan salah satunya daun kemangi. Tujuan penelitian untuk menganalisis efektivitas penggunaan ekstrak daun kemangi (Ocimum basilicum L) terhadap jumlah Staphylococcus aureus rongga mulut. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan true eksperiment laboratoris, dimana pengujian efektivitas antibakteri dengan metode pengenceran seri. Sampel yang digunakan strain murni Staphylococcus aureus dan isolat klinik Staphylococcus aureus. Konsentrasi ekstrak yang digunakan 50%, 25%, 12,5%, 6,25% dan dilakukan pengulangan sebanyak 4 kali. Data penelitian diolah menggunakan SPSS yaitu uji Kruskal-Wallis dan uji Mann-Whitney.Hasil: Konsentrasi 50% merupakan kadar bunuh minimum (KBM) untuk strain murni bakteri Staphylococcus aureus, dan kadar hambat minimum (KHM) untuk isolat klinik Staphylococcus aureus. Konsentrasi 25% hanya didapati kadar hambat minimum (KHM) untuk strain murni Staphylococcus aureus. Simpulan: Terdapat pengaruh penggunaan ekstrak daun kemangi (Ocimum basilicum L) terhadap penurunan jumlah Staphylococcus aureus rongga mulut. Kata kunci : Daun kemangi, Staphylococcus aureus, pengenceran seri, KHM, KBM. ABSTRACT Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is a pathogenic microorganism in the oral cavity. In Indonesia, infectious diseases are still a common problem, especially in the oral cavity. Therefore, a natural antibacterial remedy has been developed, one of which is basil leaves. The study aimed to analyse the effectiveness of using basil leaf extract (Ocimum basilicum L) against the number of oral Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: This study used a true laboratory experiment, where the antibacterial effectiveness was tested by using the series dilution method. The samples used were pure strains of Staphylococcus aureus and clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus. The extract concentration used was 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25% and was repeated 4 times. The research data were processed using SPSS, namely the Kruskal-Wallis test and the Mann-Whitney test. Results: The concentration of 50% is the minimum kill rate (MKC) for pure strains of Staphylococcus aureus and the minimum inhibitory level (MIC) for clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus. At 25% concentration, only the minimum inhibitory level (MIC) was found for pure strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Conclusion: There is an effect of using basil leaf extract (Ocimum basilicum L) on reducing the number of oral Staphylococcus aureus. Keywords: Basil leaf, Staphylococcus aureus, serial dilution, MIC, MKC.

Background The application of disinfectants on dental instruments is one way to prevent cross-infection. Cross infection can occur due to microorganisms found in blood, saliva and dental plaque which can contaminate the instruments used by dental health workers. Thus, indirect contact transmission of pathogenic microorganisms occurs from instruments that have been contaminated by dental health workers. Ozone water and 4.8% chloroxylenol are disinfecting agents used to disinfect medical instruments. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of disinfection of ozone water and 4.8% chloroxylenol in reducing the number of bacterial colonies on dental extraction instruments at the USU Dental and Oral Hospital between October-December 2022. Methods The samples used were mandibular molar pliers that have been used in tooth extraction procedures. This study was experimental and used three sample groups, where each group consisted of 10 tooth extraction instruments. The treatment group used ozone water and 4.8% chloroxylenol and the negative control group was cleaned with distilled water. The test effectiveness in this study used bacteria colony counter using the scatter cup method. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results The results of the data analysis showed a p-value ≤0.001, which means that there was a significant difference in the disinfection using ozone water and 4.8% chloroxylenol on the number of bacterial colonies on dental extraction instruments. The results of this study show that the average number of bacterial colonies formed in the ozone water treatment group was 4.00 ± 4.32, 16.00 ± 6.65 in the 4.8% chloroxylenol treatment group, and 217.50 ± 39.24 in the negative control group (Aquadest). Conclusions From this study it can be said that ozone water is more effective in disinfecting dental extraction instruments than 4.8% chloroxylenol.

Aging is a natural process that will be experienced by every individual. In the elderly there are very complex degenerative, physiological and biological changes, one of the changes that occur in the elderly is oral cavity changes. Tooth loss will affect the quality of life in the elderly such as impaired cognitive function, this is due to a lack of mastication. Dementia is a syndrome of decreased intellectual function compared to the previous one which is quite severe so that it interferes with social and professional activities which are reflected in daily living activities, usually changes in behavior are also found and are not caused by delirium or major psychiatric disorders. The results of study at USU Hospital showed the mean value of missing tooth was 1.61 with a standard deviation of 0.676 while the mean value severity of dementia was 2.79 with a standard deviation of 0.725 and a p-value of 0.001 (p<0.05). There is a significant relationship between the effect of tooth loss on the severity of cognitive and memory functions in the elderly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
