Mouthwash is an additional mechanical oral cavity cleaning method which is known to reduce oral bacterias that causes plaque build ups. Mouthwash may and may not contain alcohol. The objective of this study was to determine the alterations on the oral cavity environment (salivary pH and plaque index) before and after gargling with alcohol and non-alcohol mouthwash, and to analyze which of the mouthwash is more effective. This study was an experimental study with one group pre test and post test experimental design. The subject of this study was 16 of University of Sumatera Utara’s female undergraduates whose age ranges from 18–23 years old and accorded to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects were divided in two groups, subjects were instructed to used the mouthwash twice a day for seven days, then salivary pH and plaque index were measured at third and seventh day of used. Repeated Annova test results shown a significant decreas on salivary pH and plaque index after gargled with mouthwash containing alcohol, in the non-alcohol mouthwash there was a significant decreased in plaque index but none on the salivary pH. Dependent T-test results shown that there were no difference in salivary pH and plaque index after gargled with alcohol containing and non-alcohol mouthwash. This study shows that non-alcohol mouthwash is better because there were a significant decrease in plaque index, without caused significant decreases in pH scores.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of hypnobirthing, yoga and pregnancy exercise on the anxiety level of third trimester pregnant women at BPM Griya Bunda Ceria in 2020. Research method: quantitative research, using the shapiro wilt test method with pre-test and post-test approaches. in this study were all third trimester pregnant women who checked their pregnancy at BPM Griya Bunda Ceria Palembang. Sampling using purposive sampling technique. Data collection was carried out by means of observation using a questionnaire sheet. The results: obtained from a total of 15 respondents. Based on the results of the Shapiro Wilt test, the p-Value is 0.05 where >α = 0.05 means that there is a significant influence between before and after hypnobirthing is done.statistically, the p-Value is 0,000, meaning that there is a significant effect between before and after yoga. Thus the hypothesis which states that there is an effect of yoga on the anxiety level of pregnant women in the third trimester which is statistically proven based on the paired shapiro wilt test, the p-Value is 0.00 in yoga, p-Value is 0.00 in pregnancy exercise, and the statistical test results are said to be related if the value The calculated p-Value <= 0.05 then Ho is rejected, meaning that it is significant, so the conclusion is that the two variables have a relationship, on the contrary, if the calculated p-Value> = 0.05, then Ho is accepted, meaning that the two variables have no significant relationship.

Abstract: The most common periodontal disease is gingivitis which is caused by biofilm accumulation on plaque around the gingival margin and inflammatory response to bacteria. Scaling is used to eliminate bacterial and calculus deposits that cause gingivitis. This study was aimed to determine the effectiveness of scaling in gingivitis treatment. This was a pre-experimental study with one group pre and post test design. Samples were obtained by using total sampling technique. There were 30 patients aged 17-45 years that had scaling performed on them at RSGM in 2019. Gingivitis was observed before and after scaling using the modified gingival index (MGI). The results showed that before scaling, there were mild gingivitis 23.30%, moderate gingivitis 70%, and severe gingivitis 6.70%. Two days after scaling, mild gingivitis and moderate gingivitis were observed 50% each. The paired sample t-test showed a p-value of 0.000. In conclusion, scaling is effective in gingivitis treatment based on the assessment using the modified gingival index.Keywords: gingivitis, scaling, modified gingival index Abstrak: Penyakit periodontal yang paling sering dijumpai yakni gingivitis (peradangan gingiva). Gingivitis disebabkan oleh akumulasi biofilm pada plak di sekitar margin gingiva dan respon peradangan terhadap bakteri. Tindakan untuk menghilangkan deposit bakteri dan kalkulus yang menyebabkan gingivitis salah satunya ialah tindakan skeling. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui efektivitas tindakan skeling terhadap perawatan gingivitis. Jenis penelitian ialah pra eksperimental dengan one grup pre and post test design. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik total sampling terhadap pasien yang berusia 17-45 tahun yang dilakukan tindakan skeling di RSGM pada tahun 2019 berjumlah 30 orang. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan melihat gingivitis sebelum skeling dan setelah skeling melalui pengukuran keparahan gingiva menggunakan modified gingival index (MGI). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebelum skeling gingivitis ringan 23,30%, gingivitis sedang 70%, gingivitis berat 6,70%. Dua hari pasca skeling didapatkan gingivitis ringan dan gingivitis sedang sama besar yaitu masing-masing 50%. Hasil uji t berpasangan menunjukkan nilai p=0,000.
