Pregnancy causes the hormonal change which will improve the oral health of pregnant women. The hormonal change causes the gingiva to become more sensitive to toxins or irritants which causes inflammation of the gingiva. The Increasing gestational age gives the risk of pregnancy for periodontal tissue damage. This study aims to find out the correlation of oral hygiene and gingival status with gestational age in 97pregnant women in the working area of Sumbersari Health Center Jember Regency. The study was observational analytic using cross sectional study. The oral hygiene status of pregnant women was measured using the Oral Hygiene Index Simplified (OHI-S) and the gingival status measurement using the Gingival Index (GI). The results showed that 73,2% oral hygiene status of pregnant women is moderate. All of the pregnant women in this study had gingivitis and most were moderate gingivitis. There was no correlation between oral hygiene with gestational age, but there was a correlation between gingival status and gestational age in pregnant women. The periodontal care should be obtained to prevent the gingival disease during pregnancy.
Indonesia's oral and dental health problems are quite high, including in Kaliwates Subdistrict. The newest method for looking at oral and dental health conditions operates WHO standard dental and oral health forms. Oral health data can be used as preventive, curative, and rehabilitative measures. The aim of this study was to determine oral health profile based on WHO standards in Kaliwates Subdistrict, Jember Regency. The research conducted was a descriptive observational with the cross-sectional approach by multiple clusters random sampling. The respondents were 97 people who stayed in Kaliwates and were 35-44 years old. Examination based on WHO standard dental and oral health form included dentition status, periodontal status, loss of attachment, email fluorosis, dental erosion, oral mucosal lesion, intervention urgency, and denture status. Data was processed based on each variable using the SPSS frequency distribution and presented in the table. Oral and dental health features were crown caries (99%) and roots (8.2%), restoration with caries (13.4%) and without caries (14.4%), extracted due to dental caries (38.1%) and other causes (3.1%), fixed prosthesis (2.1%), unerupted tooth (67%), fissure sealant (0%), gingival bleeding (72.2%), pocket 4- 5 mm (55.7%) and ≥ 6mm (1%), attachment loss of 0-3 mm (46.4%) and 4-5 mm (53.6%), very mild fluorosis (1%), enamel erosion (16, 5%) and dentin (3.1%), oral mucosal lesions ie other lesions (2.1%), need for non-urgency treatment (95.9%), and removable dentures (3.1%). Oral health profile based on WHO Standards in Community of Kaliwates Subdistrict showed some cases of oral disease that wasn’t need urgency treatment.
Introduction: Nutritional status is a condition of the body which is the result of a balance between food intake and nutritional needs. Good nutritional status is very important for children, but in reality there are still many malnourished children. Lack of nutrition and the habit of consuming excess food can make teeth susceptible to caries. The tooth with the highest caries incidence is mandibular first molar which is the most important tooth in mastication process. The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the incidence of caries in permanent mandibular first molar children aged 7 years in Plalangan Village, Jember, East Java, Indonesia. Methods: This is an analytic observational research with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique of this research is Total Sampling, which uses the entire population as the sample of this study. This research was conducted by measuring the nutritional status of BMI-for-age based on anthropometric standards from the Minister of Health of the Republic Indonesia No. 2 of 2020 and examining the oral cavity to see whether there is caries or not in the permanent mandibular first molar. Results: The results of the Chi-Square Test showed a value of 0.036. Conclusion: The result shown that thinness and overweight children have a higher caries incidence than normal weight children. There is a significant relationship between nutritional status and incidence of permanent mandibular first molar caries.
Pondok pesantren are Islamic religious education institutions, pesantrens' students are not allowed to bring communication tools that can cause the lack of knowledge of students, especially about dental and oral health. Eduaction is the provision of information that will increase knowledge. The purpose of study was to determine the influence of education toward knowledge dental and oral health of MTs class IX students at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Jadid and Al-Izza Situbondo. This study used quasi-experimental method with one group pretest and posttest research design. The research subjects was recruited using total sampling technique, as many as 37 students. The measuring instrument of this research used questionnaire. Data analysis used univariate analysis and T test and R2 test. The results showed that as many as 16 students (43%) had poor knowledge before being given education, after being given education there was an increase as many as 37 students (100%) had good knowledge. The results of the T test and R2 test showed that the value of p=0.000 (<0.05) and R2 was 0.086 (86%). The study concluded that there is an influence of education toward knowledge dental and oral health of MTs class IX students at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Jadid and Al-Izza Situbondo and had very strong category of closeness.
Objective: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a postural syndrome and nonprogressive motor disorder due to pyramida and extrapyramidal tract damaged that causes limited motor activity and often accompanied by cognitive impairment or visual deficits. Limited motor activity causes the process of brushing teeth to be hampered so that oral hygiene becomes low. Nowadays there many types of toothbrushes that required difficult motor activities so it is not effective for children with CP. Wall Mounted Automatic Toothbrush with an automation system es expected to help CP children maintained their oral hygiene. Material and Methods: This study was clinical experimental with one group pretest posttest design in 5 samples in SMPLB and SMALB D YPAC Jember. Data analysis was the One Way Anova and Post-Hoc test using the Least Significat Diffferent. The Material of this study is wall mounted automatic tootthbrush and manual toothbrush, both of them is used by children with cerebral palsy Results: There are significant differences between all treatment groups. The lowest of Silness and Loe plaque index of all treatment groups is the treatment group after brushing teeth with manual toothbrush. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is wall mounted automatic toothbrush can improve oral hygiene measured by the Silness and Loe plaque index.
