As a result, the goal of this study was to conduct a systematic evaluation of the existing literature to determine the impact of Triphala on oral health. Materials and Methods: PubMed, PubMed Central, Campbell systematic review, Cochrane, Embase, Google Scholar, and Scopus were used to perform a systematic review of the literature. This review includes only randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing Triphala to chlorhexidine (CHX) or placebo. To perform risk of bias and meta-analysis, relevant information was collected from chosen publications. Results: The overall risk of bias was high for the majority of the included studies except two studies showed an unclear risk of bias and one study showed a low risk of bias. Statistically significant differences were observed in favor of Triphala when compared with placebos for gingival, plaque and modified plaque indices (gingival index: mean difference [MD] = −0.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] (−0.83, −0.23), P = 0.006; plaque index: MD = −0.57, 95% CI (−0.99, −0.16), P = 0.007; Quigley-Hein Plaque Index: MD = −1.12, 95% CI (−1.52, −0.72), P = 0.0001). No statistically significant difference was found between herbal and CHX mouthwashes. Conclusion: Triphala mouthwash is more effective than placebo mouthwashes in reducing gingivitis, although there was no statistically significant difference between Triphala and CHX mouthwashes in the included studies. Because of their herbal nature, Triphala mouthwashes might be regarded as an alternative to CHX mouthwashes in maintaining oral hygiene.","PeriodicalId":16001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry","volume":"21 1","pages":"108 - 117"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48776165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patient satisfaction is an important indicator for measuring the quality of health care. The evolution of digital feedback forms has gained momentum nowadays. The present study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction regarding community dental care services provided through mobile dental clinics using digital feedback forms and to assess various factors influencing oral health-seeking behavior. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study on randomly selected patients (n = 1228) reporting for dental treatment in Mobile Dental Clinics from January 2019 to December 2019 was considered for the study. The patients were interviewed about their satisfaction with the services provided and other factors which influence their health-seeking behavior in Mobile Dental Clinics. The responses were recorded in digital feedback form in software named Kobo Collect 1.2 RC1 (1006) toolbox. Results: Almost 80%–90% of the patients were completely satisfied based on various criteria with the treatment services given to them in Mobile Dental Clinics. Around 89.4% (n = 1098) of study participants responded that no dental services were available in nearby dispensaries which was the major factor influencing the health-seeking behavior in Mobile Dental Vans. The qualitative assessment of patient satisfaction showed that around 15.6% (192) of patients ”appreciated our project and staff members behavior and work.” Conclusion: Quality assessment of health-care services is essential. Digital feedback forms not only save time but are also safe to keep our environment green. The findings of this study could facilitate attending to the concerns of patients seeking treatments in Mobile Health Units.","PeriodicalId":16001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry","volume":"21 1","pages":"178 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42032195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been shown to inhibit the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis in vitro. The study's objective was to evaluate and compare the antimicrobial effect of subgingival irrigation with 0.2% chlorhexidine and 4.8% bromelain extract on P. gingivalis levels in the periodontal pockets. Methodology: A randomized controlled clinical trial with a parallel-group design was conducted involving 24 adults with a periodontal pocket of 5 mm or more depth, who were randomly allocated to the two interventional groups. In each individual, the pocket of the selected tooth was irrigated with 3 ml of interventional irrigants (0.2% chlorhexidine and 4.8% bromelain extract) once, 24 h after supragingival scaling. The baseline subgingival sample was collected using paper points before irrigation, and the second sample was collected on the 7th day after irrigation. Real-time polymerase chain reaction quantitative microbial analysis was done. The Mann–Whitney U-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were employed for statistical analysis. Results: There was a significant postirrigation reduction in the level of P. gingivalis counts within Group A (P = 0.002) and Group B (P = 0.002). On intergroup comparison, a statistically significant (P = 0.05) higher reduction in the level of P. gingivalis counts was observed in the chlorhexidine group (35.40 × 105 ± 34.71 × 105 CFU) compared to the bromelain group (36.20 × 105 ± 29.75 × 105 CFU).

Settings and Design: A cross-sectional study conducted on 400 geriatric people aged 60 years and above, residing in Tadikonda Mandal of Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India. Subjects and Methods: Self-perceived oral health was assessed through self-rating of oral health, speaking ability index, chewing capability index, and psychosocial impact scale oral health impact profile. Life satisfaction was assessed through single-item question, How satisfied with your life as a whole with 4 point Likert scale. Psychological well-being was assessed through two domains: Perceived life stress and general health, i.e., anxiety and depression. People who were mentally retarded, bedridden and who were not interested to participate in the study are excluded. Statistical Analysis Used: Chi-square, t-test, one way ANOVA test, poison regression analysis. Results: A poison regression model with perceived life stress as outcome, depicted that good self-rated oral health subjects had significantly lower perceived life stress scores (prevalence rate ratio [PRR] = 0.762; 0.649–0.894) than poor self-rated oral health subjects which is constant 1. When the outcome was changed to general health in the model, subjects who self-rated oral health as good have lower depression scores (PRR = 0.763; 0.667–0.873) than subjects, who self-rated oral health as poor which is kept constant 1.

Results: The results suggested a profound awareness of LASER (55.7% had more than 3 years of experience and 44.3% had <3 years of experience) toward application for periodontal therapy. Nearly 18.6% of periodontists felt that LASER is a replacement for scalpel, whereas 34.3% felt LASER cannot completely replace scalpel and 47.1% of them felt it debatable. About 34.3% reported LASER as an adjunct, 18.7% reported it to be a standalone surgical tool, and 47.1% of them felt it debatable. Conclusion: This study implies that most of the periodontists have profound knowledge on the basic concepts of LASER and its application in periodontal treatment. The study also infers the use of LASER has become more predominant among periodontists in their day-to-day practice.","PeriodicalId":16001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry","volume":"21 1","pages":"134 - 137"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48675083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aims: The study aimed to assess the oral hygiene knowledge and practices among rural and urban pregnant women attending obstetrics and gynecology department in a tertiary care hospital of Ajmer, Rajasthan, India. Settings and Design: This study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 400 samples were selected by convenience sampling technique. Subjects and Methods: A questionnaire containing 12 questions related to knowledge and practices pertaining to the oral health of pregnant women, along with sociodemographic data. Statistical Analysis Used: Data obtained from this questionnaire were collected and analyzed using the SPSS Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Results: A majority of respondents (74%) of urban areas had good oral hygiene status and of rural areas only (44.50%) had good oral hygiene. Awareness of the connection between pregnancy and oral health among the urban participants was 7.5%, whereas only 4.5% of rural participants were aware of the same. Oral hygiene practice was found to be relatively fair in urban participants compared to rural participants. Dental visits were seen to be higher in urban participants. Conclusion: This study revealed that the knowledge of pregnant women of the rural group about the association of oral hygiene knowledge and practices was poor. Oral hygiene knowledge and practices were significantly associated with education and socioeconomic status. Therefore, pregnant women need to be educated and made aware in both urban and rural areas of oral hygiene knowledge and practices toward oral health to improve adverse pregnancy outcomes.","PeriodicalId":16001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry","volume":"21 1","pages":"162 - 167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41432597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
