Methods: 63 single-rooted teeth were instrumented. Microhardness analysis, 45 teeth were cut longitudinally and then transversely to obtain dentin. Pre- and post-treatment microhardness values were measured. The samples were randomly assigned into 3 groups (n = 15) for irrigation solution: distilled water, 17% EDTA, and 5% BA. The 18 roots were irrigated with three solutions (n = 6). Nine of the roots were filled with AH-Plus for confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis, and the others were used for XRD analysis. Results: The results were evaluated with the ANOVA test. BA caused a significant decrease in microhardness value in apical and coronal parts (p < 0.05), while EDTA reduced only in coronal parts (p < 0.05). Conclusion: BA provided higher sealer penetration ability. BA reduced the microhardness and provided better sealer penetration.","PeriodicalId":53873,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dentistry Indonesia","volume":"123 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139134973","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}

The evaluation of anatomical structures, variations and pathologies is performed with radiological imaging methods. Today, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an imaging method which offers all the features necessary for this. In addition to its importance in surgical applications, it is also valuable in terms of anatomical studies thanks to the reliability of its measurements and the fact that it allows for a three-dimensional evaluation. The mental foramen and anterior loop are some of the most significant anatomical structures in the lower jaw. The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of mental foramen according to age and gender in a Turkish population and to evaluate anterior loop length and the frequency of anterior loop. Methods: In this retrospective study, CBCT images from 148 patients (89 females and 59 males) were examined. Images of the mental foramen and interforaminal area of patients who were over 18 years of age were included in the study, while images with mandibular pathology and without occlusal closure to at least premolar teeth were excluded. Linear measurements of the mental foramen were repeated three weeks later by the same observer. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, ANOVA tests and the t-test were used to evaluate the data. Results: The morphological and morphometric features of the mental foramen, which is a characteristic structure in mandibular bone, were determined. No statistically significant difference was found between the age groups in the morphometric characteristics of the mental foramen, but a statistically significant difference was found according to gender. The most frequently detected oval shape and P3, and P4 positions were similar to the other studies conducted in Turkish populations. The prevalence of anterior loop was 58%.

Nowadays, orthodontic treatment can be done using conventional fixed appliances, or removable appliances called clear aligners. The preference for orthodontic appliances can be affected by several factors, including patient characteristics, self-perception, psychosocial, and oral-disorder factors. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the factors affecting the preference for orthodontic appliances among undergraduate students in West Jakarta. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 244 undergraduate students were retrieved by purposive sampling from 7 universities located in West Jakarta. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data, and logistic regression analysis was carried out. Results: Fixed orthodontic appliances were commonly used (79.5%), and the majority of treatment providers were orthodontists (64.8%). Students’ belief that poor dental alignment is related to decreased social attractiveness was significantly associated with the preference for orthodontic appliances (p = 0.026; 95% CI = 1.170-11.317). Orthodontic treatment provider was significantly associated with a preference for orthodontic appliances (p = 0.000; 95% CI = 0.678-3.156). Conclusion: Fixed orthodontic appliances still become the main preference for malocclusion treatment among undergraduate students in West Jakarta. Besides that, the qualification of orthodontic treatment providers affects the preference for orthodontic appliances among undergraduate students in West Jakarta.","PeriodicalId":53873,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dentistry Indonesia","volume":"13 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139130035","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}

This infective disease is significant due to its potentially aggressive and locally destructive nature. This case describes a patient diagnosed with cervicofacial actinomycosis. Her history prior to this was significant for proliferative verrucous leukoplakia, and T4aN0M0 (AJCC 7th Edition) squamous cell carcinoma of the right hard palate for which she received surgery and post-operative radiotherapy. The mechanism of actinomycotic infection, its presentation, differential diagnosis, and management is discussed, with review of the relevant literature.

Methods: Cone beam computed tomography images of 50 patients (38 female, 12 male) with unilateral IMC were selected for this retrospective study. A 25x25 pixel region of interest (ROI) was selected in the trabecular bone between the premolars on the impacted and non-impacted side and fractal analysis was conducted. The angulation of unilateral impacted canines was measured and the position was categorized as vestibular, intra-alveolar and palatal. Results: Of the 50 impacted teeth, 42% were in the vestibular, 26% were in the intra-alveolar, and 32% were in the palatal position. The most common angulation angle of the IMC was 0°-15° which occurred in 44% of canines.

Therefore, a diagnosis of leukoplakia is not always a straightforward one for the clinicians and, to some extent, also for the pathologists. The traditional clinical classification in homogeneous and nonhomogeneous leukoplakia may just be simplified into leukoplakia (thin and thick/verrucous) and erythroleukoplakia. In spite of numerous reported predictive molecular and genetic parameters of malignant transformation, the presence and grade of epithelial dysplasia as assessed by histopathological examination is still the most important one. Of the various treatment modalities, surgery and CO2 laser evaporation are still the most common ones.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the association of perceived stress, severity of xerostomia, and periodontal status in dental students. Methods: This was a two-phase cross-sectional study of 245 Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) undergraduate dental students. Phase 1 involved administration of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) and Summated Xerostomia Inventory (SXI). In phase 2, the Community Periodontal Index (CPI) was performed on 150 students to determine their periodontal status. Results: Mean PSS-10 and SXI scores were 19.6 (SD 5.47) and 7.9 (SD 2.04), respectively. Only 7.3% students had healthy periodontium while 17.3% had gingival bleeding, 65.3% had calculus, 6.7% had shallow pockets, and 3.3% had deep pockets. The association of perceived stress, severity of xerostomia, and periodontal status was not significant. Nevertheless, a significant positive correlation was found between PSS-10 and SXI scores (r = 0.318, p < 0.01). Conclusion: Most USM dental students were affected by some degree of periodontal disease, but it was not associated with perceived stress or severity of xerostomia. Students with higher perceived stress had more severe xerostomia.
