Vol. 3 No. 1 (2025): International Journal of Dentistry Scientific
Vol. 3 No. 1 (2025)This issue presents a collection of original research articles and a clinical case report that highlight contemporary research directions and clinical practices in dentistry, with an emphasis on preventive, biological, and surgical aspects of oral health. Several studies in this volume focus on the interaction between environmental, behavioral, and systemic factors and their impact on oral conditions.
Key contributions include an investigation into dental erosion among Marine Science students, emphasizing the significant role of intrinsic factors such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in tooth surface loss. Another study explores innovative preventive approaches through auditory stimulation, demonstrating the effect of traditional Kacapi Suling “Ayun Ambing” music on increasing salivary flow rate, which is essential for maintaining oral health.
This issue also features laboratory-based research evaluating the antibacterial potential of natural products, specifically green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) leaf extract from Pagar Alam against Streptococcus mutans, supporting the continued exploration of herbal alternatives in caries prevention. In addition, a clinical case report discusses the management of epulis fissuratum associated with complete denture use, highlighting the effectiveness of surgical excision combined with electrocautery to achieve favorable aesthetic and functional outcomes.
Overall, Volume 3 Issue 1 reflects the journal’s commitment to advancing dental science through multidisciplinary research, combining clinical insight, preventive strategies, and the utilization of local natural resources to address current challenges in oral health care.
