Abstract

Abstract: Gingival recession is the displacement of marginal gingiva to the apical direction of the cementoenamel junction due to the loss of alveolar bone attachment tissue resulting in exposure of the root surface of the tooth. Wrong technique of tooth brushing is one of the causes of gingival recession. This study was aimed to determine the correlation between tooth brushing techniques and gingival recession among the coastal coast community at the Megamas area of Manado. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design. Sampleswere obtained by using total sampling method. Tooth brushing techniques were observed by looking at the way the respondents brushed their teeth. We provided check lists in accordance with the techniques they used. Data of gingival recession were obtained by examination of the oral cavity and then we calculated the severity of gingival recession. There were 43 respondents involved in this study. The result of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov obtained a p-value of 0.000. In conclusion, Yjere was a relationship between tooth brushing technique and the severity of gingival recession.

Keywords: gingival recession, tooth brushing technique

 

Abstrak: Resesi gingiva adalah perubahan posisi tepi gingiva ke arah apikal dari cemento enamel junction karena hilangnya jaringan perlekatan tulang alveolar sehingga mengakibatkan terbukanya permukaan akar gigi. Kesalahan teknik menyikat gigi merupakan salah satu penyebab resesi gingiva. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan teknik menyikat gigi dengan keparahan resesi gingiva pada masyarakat pesisir pantai di Kawasan Megamas Kota Manado. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik dengan desain potong lintang. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan metode total sampling. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara melihat gerakan menyikat gigi yang digunakan. Hasil pengamatan dimasukkan ke dalam check list sesuai dengan teknik yang digunakan. Resesi gingiva yang diperoleh melalui pemeriksaan langsung diklasifikasikan menurut tingkat keparahan resesi gingiva. Jumlah responden dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 43 orang. Hasil analisis menggunakan uji Kolmogorov-Smirnov mendapatkan nilai p=0,000. Simpulan penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan teknik menyikat gigi dengan keparahan resesi gingiva.

Kata kunci: resesi gingiva, teknik menyikat gigi
