Setiap individu memiliki kewajiban untuk menjaga kesehatannya agar dapat hidup dengan kualitas yang baik. Salah satu cara untuk menjaga kesehatan yaitu dengan melakukan aktivitas fisik. Namun, mahasiswa dengan segala aktivitasnya ditemukan memiliki jumlah aktivitas fisik yang kurang dari standar minimal. Kondisi tersebut juga berlaku sbagi mahasiswa Universitas Padjadjaran. Untuk dapat meningkatkan aktivitas fisik pada mahasiswa, diperlukan suatu promosi kesehatan berupa edukasi untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran mahasiswa seputar aktivitas fisik. Edukasi dilakukan dengan membuat konten video wawancara bersama dokter dan membahas pentingnya aktivitas fisik serta video rekomendasi tempat dan jenis olahraga yang bisa dilakukan oleh mahasiswa Universitas Padjadjaran. Video kemudian dipublikasikan di Instagram @klinik.unpad, Klinik Pratama yang menjadi stakeholder dan ikut berkolaborasi pada kegiatan ini. Hasil kegiatan didapatkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan dan kesinambungan penerimaan informasi bagi mahasiswa Universitas Padjadjaran, sehingga kegiatan ini dinilai cukup berdampak. Dampak tersebut dalam jangka pendek selama masa KKN kemudian diukur dari jumlah likes dan viewers. Namun, agar kegiatan dapat lebih menjangkau mahasiswa Universitas Padjadjaran dan lebih terukur, sebaiknya dibuat kegiatan lanjutan yang diselenggarakan secara offline.
ДО ПРОБЛЕМИ ВИВЧЕННЯ КОРЕКЦІЇ ЗВУКОВИМОВИ У ДІТЕЙ З ВРОДЖЕНИМ НЕЗРОЩЕННЯМ ГУБИ ТА ПІДНЕБІННЯ ЗАСОБАМИ ІНФОРМАЦІЙНИХ ТЕХНОЛОГІЙ

У статті розглядається актуальність питання включення нових підходів в корекції звуковимови для дітей з вродженим незрощенням губи та піднебіння (далі ВНГП). Незважаючи на існуючі наукові дослідження діагностика та корекція мовлення дітей з ВНГП залишається однією із найбільш складних та недостатньо розв’язаних логопедичних проблем. Ми наголошуємо на сучасних розширених підходах на діагностичному та корекційному етапах: використанні інструментальних методів діагностування, підключенні до корекційної програми онлайн-навчання, що йтиме на одному рівні з офлайн-роботою і не поступатиметься йому.
Мета статті полягає у теоретичному вивченні проблем корекції звуковимови у дітей з вродженим незрощенням губи та піднебіння.
У статті висвітлено наукові дослідження з питань особливостей корекційної роботи з дітьми з ВНГП. Зазначено, що для даної категорії дітей важливою є міждисциплінарна робота, особливо на етапі діагностики із підключення інструментальних методів оцінки.
У ході проведеного теоретичного дослідження визначено, що найбільший вплив для дітей з ВНГП незрощення має на звуковимову та мовленнєве дихання, що значно погіршує розбірливість мовлення.
Враховуючи, що причинами порушення звуковимови, мовленнєвого дихання може бути анатомо-фізіологічна диспропорція велофарингеального порту, важливо задіювати інструментальну оцінку його роботи, що забезпечить успішне формування подальшої логопедичної роботи та визначити очікувані результати.
У статті визначено актуальність наукового дослідження із задіянням онлайн-формату роботи та використанням комп’ютерних технологій, що забезпечуватиме безперервність логопедичної роботи з дітьми з ВНГП.
COVID 19, AS CHALLENGE AND OPPORTUNITY IN DENTAL PRACTICE
Authors: Prof. Dr. Ghulam Rasool  
Published: July 2023

A novel coronavirus announced as the etiologic pathogen of COVID 19, on 8th Jan 2020. WHO also declared the outbreak of COVID 19 as public Health Emergency on 30th Jan 2020. It is a highly contagious disease, and the main route of transmission of the virus is air born respiratory droplets through close personal contact. In routine dental procedures, a large number of droplets and aerosols could are generated and considered as the most common cause of spread. Due to the fact, the dental practice has been placed at the top of the high-risk profession in COVID pandemic. It has challenged the dental professionals at large. It has created not only health concerns but financial loss, compromise in the dental health delivery system, and wastage of human resources and dental auxiliaries.
Effective Infection Control Protocols like Hand washing is considered the most beneficial measure for reducing the risk of transmitting microorganism. Thorough disinfection of all surfaces within the dental operatory and the use of personal protective equipment, including N 95 masks, gloves, gowns, and goggles and face shields, recommended to protect skin and mucosa from contaminated instruments, blood, and other secretions. No one can predict the future of pandemic, but there is a lot of speculation about clinical dental practice in the future if we have to live with COVID 19.
In the past, the casual approach of general dental practitioners especially in rural and small towns, where the involvement of unauthorized people in dental practice and lack of resources like high tech autoclave and electricity has led to the common perception of the spread of infection being related to the dental procedures. Now with the COVID pandemic, the dental practitioners at large have realized the importance of protective measures and adherence to strict protocols. Hopefully, the future dentistry will be different, a little more expensive but the patient safety will be prioritized by all means.

Published: July 2023

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the mandibular symphysis morphology and its dimensions in different anteroposterior skeletal relationships, Class-I / Class-II/ Class III, in patients presented to orthodontics department of Rehman College of dentistry.
Materials and Methods: A total of 50 lateral cephalograms of patients (age > 18 years, mean age 22 years) irrespective of gender were randomly selected from patient’s records of the department. Measurements were taken on software IC Measure version 1.3. All the radiographs were imported into the software and analyzed. The image was digitized on six points for linear and angular measurements. The main outcome measure was the “mandibular symphysis morphology and its dimensions in anteroposterior plane” in all skeletal malocclusion classes.
Results: The relationship between the variables was assessed by one way ANOVA test. A larger angle of concavity of the chin, and larger MS dimensions and area (P <0.05) were found with a Class III skeletal relationship compared to Class I and Class II relationships. Males had a decreased angle of concavity than females. There were, however, no significant differences in the vertical dimension of MS and angle of convexity between the three groups.
Conclusion: Class III skeletal jaw relationship exhibits a decreased concavity of anterior contour of MS as compared to the other groups. Larger dimensions and area of MS are found in Class III than in class I and class II part of MS. It is clear from the results that the alveolar part of MS compensated for the skeletal relationship in the Class III pattern.

Published: July 2023

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare patient expectations before Nonsurgical Periodontal Treatment with their level of satisfaction afterward based on a self-reported questionnaire.
Materials and Methods: Information was obtained from 140 patients initially diagnosed with chronic periodontitis. The survey was completed twice by each patient, once before and once after NSPT. For sample size calculation, we used Open epi, the calculated sample size was 16, by taking pre expectation of the (functional) 5.0±3.0 and post expectation of the (functional) 9.1±1.7 by using a visual analog scale (VAS) while keeping 95% confidence interval and 90% power of the study but to take the normality assumption of the data we took 140 sample size for our research.
Results: Positive correlations was found between expectations and post treatment outcome for esthetics (Spearman’s rho = 0.671, p < .001). A positive correlation was also found between expectations and post treatment ratings for function (Spearman’s rho = 0.917%, p < .001). No significant association was found between esthetic and functional expectations, gender (p = .518 and p = .376), and educational level (p = .916 and p = .412).
Conclusion: The majority of the patients in our study who were young end educated were satisfied with NSPT received.
