The utilization of natural resources, one of which is plants, has been researched as an alternative to synthetic drugs because of their natural content. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) peels, the parts of potatoes that are often cut off and discarded, have been reported to have some phenolic compounds and flavonoids in their composition. The extract of potato peels was investigated for its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-biofilm-forming properties. A hot plate test was conducted to assess the analgesic activity in treatment doses of 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg, and 200 mg/kg with paracetamol as the reference drug and distilled water as the negative control, while carrageenan-induced paw edema was used to assess anti-inflammatory activity in treatment doses of 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg with diclofenac as the reference drug and distilled water as the negative control. Anti-biofilm-forming activity was tested by using the crystal violet assay. The results showed that, compared with the negative control, treatment doses of 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg significantly (p < 0.05) reduced pain stimuli, whereas a treatment dose of 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the edema volume increment. However, compared with the positive control, paracetamol and diclofenac were associated with the least pain stimulus and the least edema volume increment, respectively. Potato peel extract against S. mutans biofilm formation demonstrated effectiveness (p < 0.05). Based on these data, it can be concluded that potato peel extract has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-biofilm-forming activities, as demonstrated in this study.

Objectives: This case report aims to identify fractures that occur through panoramic radiographs and evaluated by CBCT after being given treatment. Case Report: A 12-year-old male patient came with his older brother to the emergency room (ER) RSKGM/Bandung Dental Hospital due to the trauma of a fall by an iron football goalpost while playing soccer which caused the patient to fall onto the grass field. The patient was experiencing continuous bleeding. Systemic and allergic history was denied. Extraoral examination showed bruising with no facial asymmetry. Intraoral examination revealed a vertical gap between teeth 42 and 43, the jaw within the site was mobile, and active bleeding especially from lingual lacerations.  After consulting with Dental Surgery Specialist, the emergency room doctor gave interdental wiring. After 2 months post wiring, a CBCT photo evaluation was carried out. Conclusion: The mandibular fracture in this case report was well identified by clinical examination and supported by panoramic radiography. After that the patient was given treatment and evaluated through CBCT. CBCT provides a clearer and better picture.

Objectives: This case report aims to describe a large radiolucent lesion associated with an impacted canine in a young patient from CBCT radiographs. Case Report:  A 12-year-old boy was referred for CBCT examination to the Dentomaxillofacial Radiology unit at the Universitas Padjadjaran Dental Hospital with swelling on the right side of the face and a gingival lump on the upper right region suspected as an unerupted canine. The CBCT examination results showed an ectopic impacted tooth 13 and a large hypodense/radiolucent lesion with a well-defined and corticated border located on the coronal of tooth 13, expanding into the maxillary sinus and nasal cavity. Conclusion: Based on the CBCT result in terms of location and radiographic features, this extensive radiolucent lesion led to a suspect radiodiagnosis of the dentigerous cyst within a young patient. However, histology examination is still required to establish a definitive diagnosis.

Objectives: This article is aimed to report the use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging analysis on a radiolucent lesion case. Case Report: A 24-year-old female patient was referred to dentomaxillofacial radiology installation, at Universitas Padjadjaran Dental Hospital for a CBCT examination of a lower jaw lesion. The CBCT result demonstrated a large radiolucent lesion at the periapical of tooth 37 with a mostly diffuse border that extended posteriorly to the ramus. There was a cortical thinning on the lingual side alveolar bone. Density analysis revealed an average density of –22,9 grayscale. Conclusion: CBCT 3D could analyze lesions from qualitative and quantitative approaches. Based on these approaches, the lesion of this case led to a suspect of infected radicular cyst.

Objectives: This case report is aimed to report the finding of canalis sinuosus on an impacted maxillary canine using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) examination. Case Report: A 21-year-old male was referred from orthodontic department to radiology department UNPAD Dental Hospital for CBCT to determine the treatment of malalignment asymptomatic maxillary canine. The case revealed the presence of canalis that was identified as a canalis sinuosus, a branch of the anterior superior alveolar nerve that rarely known by a practitioner, at the apex of impacted right maxillary canine. Conclusion: The information of this anatomical variation is important for professionals due to damage that may be caused during treatment. The use of advanced imaging examination is recommended to acknowledge the individual anatomical variation before determining the proper treatment planning.
