“…Konvencionalni terapeutski pristup u rešavanju ovog problema tokom fiksne ortodontske terapije je orijentisan ka upotrebi lekova koji imaju dominantno analgetičke i antiinflamatorne efekte, ali u isto vreme, inicijalni ortodontski luk treba da proizvede ograničenu snagu 7 . U velikom broju radova suočeni su stavovi o efikasnosti i neophodnosti NSAID-a tokom ortodontskog lečenja 8,9,10 . Uzimajući u obzir negativne efekte analgetika, neki istraživači traže sigurne alternativne metode za smanjenje bolova, kao što je LLLT 11 .…”

“…The conventional therapeutic approach in dealing with this problem during the fixed orthodontic therapy is oriented towards the usage of medicaments which dominantly have analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, but at the same time the initial arch should produce a limited force 7 . Most of the reports have confronted views for the efficiency and the necessity of NSAIDs use during the orthodontic treatment 8,9,10 . Taking into consideration the negative effects of the analgesics, some researchers are seeking for safe alternative methods in reducing the pain, such as the LLLT 11 .…”

Dental caries is a most prevalent oral disease in children. There were tendency of diverse children drink consumption including soft drinks that attracts by its taste and flavor and causing dental caries. Earlier study suggested that tea had important element in dental caries inhibition. Hence this study was conducted to evaluate and compare pH of saliva after rinsing with green tea and black tea. Methods for his study was conducted among thirty two healthy school children between 10-12 years old. The subjects who fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected and randomly divided into two groups. The first group had rinsing with green tea and the other group with black tea. They were asked to rinse for one minute after sugary soft drink consumption. Then salivary pH were measured using pH meter.. Statistical analysis was done using Mann Whitney test. p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results of this study showed that there was no statistically significant difference among subjects rinsing for one minute with green tea and black tea after sugary soft drink consumption. But green tea showed much better effect in rising salivary pH. As the conclusion that green tea showed a promising greater rising on salivary pH than black tea after sugary soft drink consumption in children.

Brushing teeth is a means of maintaining dental and oral hygiene which aims to prevent dental caries. Primary school age is the appropriate time to train and to lay on correct habit and behaviour in brushing teeth. The behaviour and habit of brushing teeth will affect the occurrence of dental plaque accumulation. The accumulation of plaque that attach to the teeth for a long period of time, and is not immediately cleaned, will increase the maturity level of dental plaque, and may potentially grow into dental caries. This study aims to identify the relationship between the behaviour of brushing teeth with the level of dental plaque maturity.An analytical study with cross-sectional design, with the number of samples as many as 83 children and is determined by purposive sampling. Completion of questionnaires to assess knowledge, attitude, action, and habit of teeth brushing and using the Tri Plaque ID Gel to measure the maturity level of dental plaque. Using the Spearmen test acquired p=0,000 (p<0,005) and r=0,632. It shows that there is a relationship between good behaviour in brushing teeth and the decrease on the level of maturity of dental plaque. There is a relationship between the behaviour and habit of brushing teeth with the maturity level of dental plaque. The better the behaviour is and the habit in brushing teeth, the lower level of dental plaque maturity.
