Media komunikasi informasi dan edukasi yang terdiri dari media visual, audio, dan audio-visual merupakan salah satu upaya untuk mencegah masalah kesehatan gigi dan mulut. Tujuan: untuk memberikan gambaran dan gagasan dari hasil literatur review media komunikasi, informasi, dan edukasi terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan anak sekolah dasar tentang kesehatan gigi dan mulut. Bahan dan Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan metode literature review. Literatur yang digunakan berupa jurnal, teksbook, dan laporan kasus yang dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan pencarian seperti Google Scholar, Science Direct, NCBI, dan Proquest. Pencarian kata kunci yang dimasukkan, jika telah memenuhi kriteria maka judul dari jurnal tersebut terpilih untuk dianalisis.

The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship and differences in salivary Tgfβ1 levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and primary hypertension (PH) with dental caries patients. Salivary TGFβ1 levels of patients with T2DM & Caries, PH with dental caries were 577.85 pg/ml (0.042) and 386.3894 pg/ml (0.024). Then continued with testing the effect of TGFβ1 on T2DM and PH patients with dental caries, namely T2DM patients (p. 0.042) and PH patients (p. 0.024). This shows that there is a significant effect between salivary TGFβ1 levels of T2DM and PH patients on dental caries. Likewise, it was found that there was a significant difference between T2DM and PH in dental caries by looking at the average value of salivary TGFβ1 on PH was 386,3894pg/mL while salivary TGFβ1 on T2D was 577,8546pg/mL. It can also be seen from the standard deviation value of T2DM deviation is 173.04621, while HTP is 95.93092. There is associated and difference of Salivary TGFβ1 levels of patients with T2DM and PH at the age of 18-40 years with dental caries. The higher the salivary TGFβ1 level, the higher the risk of dental caries.

Pendahuluan: Pengukuran dimensi vertikal oklusi merupakan salah satu tahap penting pada perawatan gigi tiruan. Namun, dari banyaknya metode pengukuran, sampai sekarang belum ditemukan metode yang tepat. Oleh karena itu, terus dilakukan pengembangan teori tentang pengukuran dimensi vertikal yang dibandingkan dengan pengukuran antropometri. Tujuan Penelitian: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan Panjang jari kelingking dengan dimensi vertikal oklusi berdasarkan kategori. Bahan dan Metode: Jenis Penelitian ini menggunakan metode obervasional analitik dengan rancangan studi cross-sectional. Metode pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling. Penelitian dilakukan pada 72 mahasiswa program sarjana Fakultas Kedokteran Gigi Umi yang telah memenuhi kriteria. Hasil: Hasil uji spearman’s Correlation menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara Panjang jari kelingking dengan dimensi vertikal oklusi (p=0,001; p>0,05) dan (r=0,371) yang berarti bahwa tingkat korelasi yang lemah. Jumlah sampel paling dominan pada kategori jari kelingking pendek sebanyak 41 orang (56,9%). Jumlah sampel paling banyak terdapat pada kategori dimensi vertikal oklusi tinggi yakni sebanyak 2 orang (2,8%). Kesimpulan: Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara Panjang jari kelingking dengan dimensi vertikal oklusi berdasarkan kategori pada mahasiswa FKG UMI
