Decoding Dry Mouth and Cavities: A Dental Health E...

When Dry Mouth and Cavities Collide: A Common but Manageable Concern A patient presents with xerostomia (dry mouth) and dental caries (cavities)—a duo that often signals an underlying condition. While these symptoms may seem alarming, they’re also an opportunity to uncover and address the root cause, paving the way for a healthier, more comfortable oral environment. The Likely Culpr...

Early Enamel Lesions: Preventive Treatments to Str...

Early enamel lesions—often detected as white spots or subtle surface demineralization—are a common yet reversible stage of dental caries. The good news? With early intervention, these lesions can be halted or even remineralized, preserving tooth structure and preventing progression to cavities. As a proactive approach, preventive treatments focus on remineralization, fluoride therapy, and lif...

Generalized Bone Loss Around Teeth: What Your Radi...

Understanding the Radiographic Finding A radiograph showing generalized bone loss around teeth is a critical diagnostic clue that prompts further evaluation. While this finding may initially raise concerns, it also opens the door to early intervention—allowing for proactive treatment that preserves oral health and overall well-being. This radiographic pattern is often associated with period...

Optimal Restorative Options After Root Canal Thera...

Root canal therapy (RCT) is a transformative endodontic procedure that preserves natural dentition by removing infected pulp tissue while maintaining structural integrity. However, the restoration phase is equally critical—it ensures long-term success, restores occlusal function, and enhances aesthetics. For molars, which endure heavy masticatory forces, the choice of restoration must balance du...

Unlocking the Mystery: Jaw Clicking and Pain Durin...

A Common yet Critical Concern in Dentistry When a patient presents with jaw clicking and pain during mastication , the first question that arises is: Which joint is involved? While multiple structures in the oral and maxillofacial region can contribute to discomfort, the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the most likely culprit. This intricate articulation connects the mandible to the te...

Kemajuan Baru dalam Riset Oseointegrasi

Abstract Osseointegration, defined as the direct structural and functional connection between living bone and the surface of a load-bearing implant, remains a cornerstone of successful dental and orthopedic implantology. Despite significant clinical success, challenges persist in achieving predictable osseointegration, particularly in patients with compromised bone quality, systemic diseases, or ...

Healing and Osseointegration: The Biological Proce...

Dental implants have revolutionized modern dentistry, offering a permanent solution to missing teeth. However, the long-term success of these implants is reliant on a crucial biological process known as osseointegration. This term refers to the fusion of the jawbone with the implant material, typically titanium, which ensures stability and allows the implant to function much like a natural tooth. ...

Sumber sel alternatif terapi regenerasi periodonta...

Sel stroma yang berasal dari sumsum tulang dan sel induk ligamen periodontal dipakai sebagai sumber sel untuk regenerasi periodontal. Karena periodontium berasal dari folikel gigi, maka sel induk folikel gigi bisa jadi sumber sel alternatif untuk terapi regenerasi periodontal. Penelitian lebih lanjut tentang prakara ini perlu dilakukan. Pada mulanya, Honda et al (2010) berupaya menghasilkan gigi ...

Cedera oral sebagai dampak dari terapi radiasi

Cedera pada bagian mulut bisa dikarnakan oleh radiasi. Cedera karena radiasi dihasilkan dari efek ionisasi gelombang elektromagnetik atau partikel energi pada sel. Terapi radiasi umumnya digunakan untuk mengatasi kanker ganas pada kepala dan leher. Dalam proses menghilangkan jaringan yang sakit, jaringan oral yang normal di dalam atau dekat bidang yang sama juga dapat rusak tetapi biasanya pada t...

Terapi HBO dan implant gigi

Terapi HBO (Hyperbaric oxygen) adalah modalitas perawatan dimana pasien menghirup oksigen 100% sementara diberi paparan tekanan atmosfer yang semakin meningkat dan terkontrol. Terapi ini bisa meningkatkan proses penyembuhan natural tubuh manusia. Dengan terapi ini, oksigen yang normalnya hanya dihantarkan oleh darah juga dihantarkan oleh fluida sistem saraf sentral, limpa, fluida tubuh lannya, dan...

Implan gigi vs terapi radiasi

Implan gigi yang telah sukses tertanam dan berpadu kokoh dengan tulang rahang sebaiknya jangan sampai terkena paparan sinar radiasi, misalnya radiasi dari terapi radiasi. Menurut penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Teramoto et al. (2016), sel-sel tulang yang terkena paparan sinar radiasi bisa mati karena terkena sinar radiasi tersebut. Hal ini diistilahkan osteoradionekrosis, artinya, kematian sel tu...
