The most used denture base materials is heat cured acrylic resin. The disadvantages of acrylic resin are easy to absorb water and porosity that can increase surface roughness. The surface roughness can facilitate the attachment of microorganisms and accumulation of plaque. The cleansing of mechanical denture use electric toothbrush and denture cleanser paste. This paste uses natural materials from robusta coffee beans that decrease surface roughness. To determine the effectivity of robusta coffee beans paste as a denture cleanser to the surface roughness of heat cured acrylic resin. This study was an experimental laboratory with the research design the post test only control group design. Total sample of 36 samples in size (65 x 10 x 2,5) mm which consisted of 4 groups: control group without brushing, group A brushed with electric toothbrush and a placebo paste, group B brushed with electric toothbrush and robusta coffee beans paste 25%, and group C brushed with electric toothbrush and robusta coffee beans paste 50%. Brushing was done for 22 minutes, then measured the surface roughness of dentures. Robusta coffee bean paste was less effective as a denture cleanser agent against the surface roughness of the heat cured acrylic resin. Robusta coffee beans paste 50% can be used as a denture cleanser.

Clinical indications and contraindications for insertion path of removable partial denture (RPD)have been welldiscussed in the literature. However, specific discussion of proper laboratory technique and procedure for dentaltechnician is scarce and limited. This article describes two problems that dental technicians occasionally encounterwhich make the fabrication of rotational insertion path of RPD difficult or impossible. Design modifications by theclinician can eliminate problems faced by technicians in determining the proper path of insertion. Lack of clinicalexperience and/or guidance from the literature related to the insertion path of RPD design may cause laboratoryand clinical problems. The recognition of these potential problems will minimize the laboratory and clinicalproblems
Immunization is an attempt to actively generate or enhance a person's immunity to a disease, so that when exposed to the disease will not experience pain or only mild illness. Immunization program for baby aims to make every baby get immunization basic complete. The successfull of baby in obtaining basic immunization can be measured by complete basic immunization indicator (IDL). Basic immunization status on the children can be influenced by several factors associated with people behavior. Cadre's support is one of the important factors in immunization activities so that Posyandu activities can work as on schedule. Jelbuk and Klatakan public health center have complete basic immunization coverage lowest in Jember district in 2015 and 2016 years. The aim of this research was to analyze the influence of cadre’s support in the complete basic immunization. This research used analytic observational with cross Sectional analysis design. The location of this research was in the working area Jelbuk and Klatakan public health center on August – September 2017. The data was collected from 100 mothers who has children aged 12-23 months. Sampling method was using cluster random sampling. The results of this research by the logistic regression test showed that cadre support has an influence on complete basic immunization with p-value= 0,013. Therefore, its recommended for cadres to improve public education about complete basic immunization so that complete basic immunization coverage may increase.<br/> Keywords : Cadre’s Support, Complete Basic Immunization
The development of infant is affected by several factors, particularly providing exclusive breast feeding by the maternal, in which the exclusive breastfeeding contains complete nutrients that is needed by infant. However, the low rate of providing exclusive breast feeding in community may remain a challenge. A good lactation management takes important role in successful rate of exclusive breastfeeding. The lactation management can be defined as a either management or procedure performed by mothers during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding phase in order to facilitate breastfeeding activity. The lactation management itself is expected to support providing exclusive breastfeeding at least six months, in which the lactation management is necessary for both career-mother and housewife. The objective of this study was to assess the lactation management among housewife during breastfeeding activity. This was descriptive study by using quantitative approach, where the study design is case control. The location of this study is in work area of Primary Health Care of Sumbersari, Jember. This study found that lactation management is essential factor that affects breastfeeding activity among housewife. Keyword: Exclusive Breast Feeding, Lactation Management, Housewife
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
