Abstract: Teeth play some significant role in mastication. The lower efficiency of mastication is mostly caused by tooth loss. Tooth extraction is closely linked to problems such as caries, periodontal, diseases, and other dental diseases. This was a retrospective study. Samples were obtained by using total sampling method. Data of the medical records of tooth extraction in dental health center at Clinic Tinumbala Aertembaga District of Bitung in 2013 were used in this study. The results showed that tooth extraction cases with radix gangrene and periodontal diseases had the same frequencies (41.2%). Based on gender, males (51.9%) had a higher frequency of tooth extraction than females. Adults (26-65 years) belonged to the highest group with tooth extraction (70.3%). Type of teeth that mostly extracted is 46 by 17.7%. Keywords: tooth extraction     Abstrak: Gigi merupakan organ terpenting pada manusia. Terjadinya kehilangan gigi akan menyebabkan penurunan efisiensi pengunyahan. Pencabutan gigi berhubungan erat dengan masalah karies, penyakit periodontal, dan penyakit-penyakit lainnya. Penelitian ini bersifat retrospektif dan pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan metode total sampling dengan cara mendata rekam medik tindakan pencabutan gigi di poli gigi Puskesmas Tinumbala Kecamatan Aertembaga Kota Bitung pada tahun 2013. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kasus pencabutan gigi dengan diagnosis gangren radiks dan penyakit periodontal mempunyai frekuensi yang sama yaitu sebesar 41,2%. Berdasarkan jenis kelamin laki-laki (51,9%) memiliki frekuensi pencabutan gigi yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan perempuan. Kelompok usia dewasa penuh (26-65 tahun) menunjukkan frekuensi pencabutan gigi yang paling tinggi dibandingkan kelompok usia lainnya, yakni sebesar 70,3%.

Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease affecting the tooth supporting structures; studies have shown that it also affects the systemic health and conditions like pregnancy. With this background the present retrospective study was conducted to assess and correlate periodontal status of pregnant women with their pregnancy outcome.Methods: A total of 150 pregnant women two days postpartum were examined for periodontal status using following parameters: Oral hygiene index- simplified (OHI-S), modified gingival index (MGI), probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL). The level of education, body mass index (BMI), gestational age and weight of the baby were recorded and correlated with the periodontal status.Results: Out of 150 women, 83 (55.3%) women suffered from gingivitis and 67 (44.7%) had periodontitis. The incidence of preterm low birth weight babies was seen in 65 (43.33%) women. Body mass index, education level and periodontal disease were significantly associated with preterm low birth weight infants.Conclusions: A significant association was found between periodontitis and preterm low birth infants. The promotion of early detection and treatment of periodontal diseases in women before and during pregnancy will be beneficial. This will minimize the cost of post natal care and morbidity in the new born.
