Gambaran Perilaku Pemeliharaan Kesehatan Gigi Mulut dan Indeks Plak Siswa SD Katolik Wori

Abstract: One of the factors that influence health including oral health is behavior. Decayed tooth allows the entrance of germs that can cause infection in other organs. Moreover, tooth plays some important role in supporting one’s self-confidence. Plaque is a soft deposit that forms biofilm and not be mineralized. It is attached to the tooth surface or to other hard surfaces in the oral cavity.

Data were obtained by using oral dental health questionnaire and plaque index examination form. The results showed that the respondents’ behavior towards maintaining oral dental health was good with the scoring of 1266. The plaque indexes of 48 respondents were categorized, as follows: 0 (0%), very good; 10 (20.83%), good; 36 (75%), moderate; and 2 (4.17%) poor. In conclusion, oral dental health behavior of students at SD Katolik Wori was good and their plaque index was categorized as moderate.Keywords: oral dental health behavior, plaque index Abstrak: Salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap kesehatan termasuk kesehatan gigi mulut yaitu faktor perilaku.

Abstract: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). In Indonesia, there are about 430.000 new cases, of which 61.000 cases ended in death. This disease has many clinical varieties, therefore, a gold standard for the right and exact diagnosis is needed. The examination of sputum by using Ziehl-Neelsen staining must be more improved for public health service. This study aimed to determine the profile of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (acid-fast bacteria) among patients with coughing ≥2 weeks at Ranotana, Wenang and Sario Primary Health Cares (PHCs) by using Ziehl-Neelsen staining. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design. Samples were obtained by using total sampling method during the period of September 2015 - December 2015. The results showed that there were 38 cases of coughing ≥2 weeks as follows: 15 cases at Wenang PHC, 13 cases at Ranotana PHC, and 10 cases at Sario PHC. The examination of acid-fast bacteria from the 38 cases of three PHCs showed that 1 case (2.7%) had acid-fast bacteria (++). Conclusion: In this study, there was only one case (2,7%) with positive Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Keywords: cough more than two weeks, tuberculosis, BTA Abstrak: Tuberkulosis adalah suatu penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis).

Background: Nosocomial infections can develop in the oral cavity due to poor oral hygiene. Oral Candidiasis is one of the most frequent nosocomial infection in oral cavity. The objective of this study is to describe the oral hygiene and oral candidiasis in hospitalized patients. Method: This analitical observational study used cross sectional design. Subject of the study were 74 adult patients aged 20-65 who are hospitalized at the Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital Semarang. Oral hygiene assessed from the presence of debris and calculus on the tooth surface using Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHIS) that were grouped in three categories (good, moderate, bad). Oral candidiasis diagnosed through clinical examination and swab procedure of suspicious lesions, and identified the presence of its spores and hyphae under a microscope observation. Kendal Tau test is used to analyze the correlation between oral hygiene with oral candidiasis. Results: Results showed patients with oral candidiasis in the poor and moderate oral hygiene were 29.7% and 1.4%, whereas patients without oral candidiasis in the poor and moderate oral hygiene were 60.8% and 8.1%. Kendall Tau correlation test results p value of 0.235 (p> 0.05). Conclusion: Conclusion of this study showed there is no association between oral hygiene with oral candidiasis.

Abstract: Gingival recession is the displacement of marginal gingiva to the apical direction of the cementoenamel junction due to the loss of alveolar bone attachment tissue resulting in exposure of the root surface of the tooth. Wrong technique of tooth brushing is one of the causes of gingival recession. This study was aimed to determine the correlation between tooth brushing techniques and gingival recession among the coastal coast community at the Megamas area of Manado. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design. Sampleswere obtained by using total sampling method. Tooth brushing techniques were observed by looking at the way the respondents brushed their teeth. We provided check lists in accordance with the techniques they used. Data of gingival recession were obtained by examination of the oral cavity and then we calculated the severity of gingival recession. There were 43 respondents involved in this study. The result of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov obtained a p-value of 0.000. In conclusion, Yjere was a relationship between tooth brushing technique and the severity of gingival recession.Keywords: gingival recession, tooth brushing technique Abstrak: Resesi gingiva adalah perubahan posisi tepi gingiva ke arah apikal dari cemento enamel junction karena hilangnya jaringan perlekatan tulang alveolar sehingga mengakibatkan terbukanya permukaan akar gigi. Kesalahan teknik menyikat gigi merupakan salah satu penyebab resesi gingiva. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan teknik menyikat gigi dengan keparahan resesi gingiva pada masyarakat pesisir pantai di Kawasan Megamas Kota Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik dengan desain potong lintang. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan metode total sampling. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara melihat gerakan menyikat gigi yang digunakan. Hasil pengamatan dimasukkan ke dalam check list sesuai dengan teknik yang digunakan. Resesi gingiva yang diperoleh melalui pemeriksaan langsung diklasifikasikan menurut tingkat keparahan resesi gingiva. Jumlah responden dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 43 orang. Hasil analisis menggunakan uji Kolmogorov-Smirnov mendapatkan nilai p=0,000. Simpulan penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan teknik menyikat gigi dengan keparahan resesi gingiva.Kata kunci: resesi gingiva, teknik menyikat gigi
