“…polyanthum leaves may have some potential usages in dentistry. 5 Avriliyanti et al 40 had shown that aqueous decoction of S. polyanthum leaves at a concentration of 60% has the ability to decrease plaque indexes by 43.1±4.02% when the decoction was gargled by a group of patients with fixed orthodontic appliance. These patients have actually achieved an average hygiene category (31%-50%) in which the effect was comparable to chlorhexidine (42.1±4.3%), a gold standard of antimicrobial agent.…”

Syzygium polyanthum (Wight) Walp is well known among Malaysians as "salam", "serai kayu", or "samak kelat", whereas in Indonesia, the plant is commonly recognized as "ubar serai", "meselengan", "manting", Indonesia laurel, or Indonesian bay leaf. 1 The scientific name S. polyanthum was usually used in synonymous with Eugenia polyantha. 2 According to the Archive of "Catalogue of Life", 3 this plant belongs to Plantae kingdom, Magnoliophyta phylum, Magnoliopsida class, Myrtales order, Myrtaceae family, Syzygium genus, and S. polyanthum (Wight) Walp species. TRADITIONAL USESLeaves, fruits, and barks of S. polyanthum are traditionally used for various medicinal and nonmedicinal purposes. The roots and the fruits are consumed to reverse the hangover effect with alcohol, whereas the leaves are traditionally consumed for treating various illnesses such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, gastritis, ulcers, diarrhea, skin diseases, as well as infections. 4,5 People in Riau, Sumatra, Indonesia, has reported to add S. polyanthum leaves as one of the ingredients in their soups, and it was consumed for treating hypertension. 6 Another alternative way of preparing remedies from S. polyanthum leaves is by preparing leaf decoction, usually by boiling few pieces of S. polyanthum leaves in plain water until they become concentrated. Apart from its medicinal use, the young shoots of S. polyanthum are consumed in its raw form as salad, or locally known among Malay as "ulam" and, sometimes, the mature leaves are used to enhance flavor in

“…Several methods to influence tooth movement by controlling bone remodeling have been developed to prevent relapse, including the use of hydrogel carbonate apatite-incorporated advanced platelet-rich fibrin 4. However, the use of natural materials is preferred due to its minimal side effect 5. Wheat seeds are a natural material that can be found easily everywhere.…”

Background The hormone estrogen can prevent osteoclast differentiation and suppress osteoclastic activity, which can prevent tooth relapse movement. Wheat seeds are a natural material containing phytoestrogens with similar characteristics to estrogen. Objective This study intends to determine the influence of wheat seeds in reducing osteoclastogenesis following orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Materials and methods Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were used in this experimental study. The rats were divided into control and treatment groups (n=20). In both groups, the rat maxillary incisors were moved distally using a 0.012 U stainless steel orthodontic appliance with a 2 mm diameter coil and 5 mm wire length. The treatment group received wheat seeds at a dose of 0.6 gram/day. The animals were sacrificed at days 0, 1, 7, and 14 after using the orthodontic appliance (4 subgroups according to observations of days; n=5). RANKL and OPG expressions were determined from the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples using ELISA analysis. Statistical analysis of the data collected was calculated with the independent sample t -test ( P <0.05). Results All the experimental procedures were well-tolerated and did not change the animals’ weight. On days 7 and 14, the OTM rate of the treatment group was significantly lower than the control group ( P <0.05). ELISA test results showed that the OPG level was significantly higher on days 1, 7, and 14, while the RANKL level was considerably lower on day 14 in the wheat seeds group compared with the control group ( P <0.05). Conclusion Wheat seeds can promote osteoclastogenesis inhibition and delay OTM.

“…1 Although the principal goal remains the restoration of oral health and function, the importance of facial esthetics and their psychological impact is increasing to the point of their becoming a necessity. 2 The perception of facial esthetics plays a significant role in a person's decision to seek orthodontic treatment and, furthermore, contributes greatly to facial attractiveness. A smile represents a facial expression which communicates feeling, friendship or a desire to reward an individual's achievements.…”

Background: A smile constitutes a form of measurement as to whether or not an orthodontic treatment has proved successful. A smile is said to be ideal if a balance exists between the shape of the face and teeth. One benchmark used to assess the quality of an ideal smile is that of buccal corridors. These are formed of the black space between the lateral edge of maxillary posterior teeth and the corner of the lip which appears during the action of smiling. Evaluating the contrasting perceptions of male and female smiles based on buccal corridor aspects is considered important to identifying the specific qualities an ideal smile. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the difference between the perceptions of an ideal smile held by Indonesian dental students of both genders based on buccal corridors. Methods: A total of 36 dental students, equally divided between male and female students and ranging in age from 18-21 years old, were enrolled in this study. The smiles of all subjects were photographed from the front for later assessment by the subjects themselves. Assessment was undertaken twice, with a two-week interval between the first and second, by comparing subjects’ photographs with reference pictures of buccal corridors. Data gathered were analyzed by using kappa-statistic and U-Mann Whitney. Results: The results indicated that all the subjects showed a good level of coincidence in their analysis (κ=0.76). Statistical analysis showed that the score of 0.123 (p>0.05) was shown in U-Mann Whitney. Conclusion: Indonesian male and female dental students have the same perception of an aesthetic smile with regard to its buccal corridor.
