But the use of chemical bleaching agents caused a side effect. Therefore, many researchers were looking for alternative materials made from nature which is safer to used. Honey devided into 2 types, natural raw honey and packed honey, which both consist hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) that could whiten the teeeth. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of natural honey and packed honey for dental bleaching. This research was an in vitro experimental study with pre and post test control group design. 30 upper human premolar were used, devided into 3 groups based on bleaching agents used: 10 samples each group with application of natural honey, packed honey, and 10% carbamid peroxide. After application, samples were placed in incubator in 370C for 2 hours, then washed and soaked in artificiaal saliva, and incubated for 14 days. The colour change was observed by five observers using vitapan classical shade guide. The results of Kruskal-Wallis test showed p=0,000 witg significant value <0,05. Which means there was significant changes between before and after treatment. The average of tooth discoloration of 50% natural honey was 8,50, 50% packed honey was 7,30, and 10% carbamid peroxide as the contro group showed 10,10. In conclusion, natural honey was more effective in tooth whitening than packed honey.","PeriodicalId":309456,"journal":{"name":"Andalas Dental Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132189814","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}

Most of mouthwash contains alcohol with concentration > 0 ≤ 27% which is used as solvent, preservative, flavour carrier and as an antibacterial. The effect of using mouthwash containing alcohol is that alcohol as drying agent, decreases in salivary flow, produced metabolites acetaldehyde and causes degeneration of nerve endings that can decrease the sensitivity of tasting. This study aimed to determine the differences of salty tasting due to using mouthwash containing 27% alcohol in 15 days. This research used a pretest and posttest group. The first group used mouthwash containing 27% alcohol and the second group used non-alcohol mouthwash. The first step, NaCl solution was dropped on the surface of the right lateral part of the anterior tongue from low to high concentration until the sample could taste the salty taste.

One of the dental cast analysis which is usually used is Pont analysis, proposed in 1909. Pont did his research to a population in French which is Caucasian and stated that his theory needs to be tested to another ethnics to verify the applicability of Pont analysis to that population. On each race, there are some specific physical characteristics such as the form and width of dentition and dental arch. Minang population are Mongolian who has the different characteristics of dentition and dental arch with the Caucasians.The aim of this study is to identify whether Pont analysis is precise to be used to Minang population. Method : Cross-sectional design was used in this study. This study was done to 65 upper dental casts from Minang student at the Faculty of Dentistry Andalas University who met the inclusion criteria. The difference between the measured and the calculated interpremolar and intermolar arch width was tested with paired T test with the significant value of 0.05 (p=0.05). Result : Mean value of interpremolar width was 37.8838 ± 2.29042 mm and intermolar width was 47.6046±3.18780 mm. The result of statistical analysis showed that there is no significant differences of the measured and the calculated interpremolar and intermolar width of Minang Student at Faculty of Dentistry Andalas University (p>0.05).
