Abstract: The commonly used base material of dentures is poly/methyl methacrylate acrylic resin with hot polymerization. Chemical cleaning methods on dentures are more effective than mechanical methods. Denture cleaners with tablet preparations from chemicals, in addition to having advantages, also have disadvantages, namely reducing the roughness of the surface of acrylic resin. This study used natural ingredients, namely Ajwa date seed extract (Phoenix dactylifera L.) as a denture cleaning agent in effervescent tablet preparations. Changes in acrylic resin plates are important for further observation because they are related to porosity which can be a place for food waste to accumulate and develop into plaque so that microorganisms are easy to develop. This study aimed to obtain the difference in the surface roughness value of acrylic resin plate before and after treatment. This was an experimental laboratory study with a pre and posttest design only control group design. There were four groups of Ajwa date seed extract tablets with concentrations of 1.6%, 3.25%, 6.5%, and 13%, alkaline peroxide tablet as the positive control, and aquadest as the negative control. The test results obtained a value of p=0.071 (>0.05), which showed that there was no significant difference before and after treatment in the group in various extract concentrations. In conclusion, there was no significant difference before and after soaking with effervescent tablets of Ajwa date seed extract in various concentrations, however, there was a significant difference in the positive control group.

Abstrak: Bahan dasar gigi tiruan yang umum digunakan ialah resin akrilik poli/metil metakrilat dengan polimerisasi panas. Metode pembersihan secara kimiawi pada gigi tiruan lebih efektif dibandingkan metode mekanis. Pembersih gigi tiruan dengan sediaan tablet dari bahan kimia, selain memiliki keuntungan juga memiliki kelemahan yaitu menurunkan kekasaran permukaan resin akrilik. Penelitian ini memanfaatkan bahan alam yaitu ekstrak biji kurma ajwa (Phoenix dactylifera L.) sebagai bahan pembersih gigi tiruan dalam sediaan tablet effervescent. Perubahan pada plat resin akrilik menjadi penting untuk dilakukan pengamatan lebih lanjut terkait dengan porositas yang dapat menjadi tempat penumpukan sisa makan dan berkembang menjadi plak sehingga mikroorganisme mudah untuk berkembang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk megetahui perbedaan nilai kekasaran permukaan resin akrilik sebelum dan sesudah perlakuan. Jenis eksperimental laboratorium dengan desain pre and posttest only control group design. Terdapat empat kelompok tablet ekstrak biji kurma Ajwa dengan konsentrasi 1,6%, 3,25%, 6,5%, dan 13%. Kontrol positif menggunakan tablet alkalin peroksida dan kontrol negatif akuades. Hasil uji mendapatkan nilai p>0,05, yang menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna sebelum dan setelah perlakuan pada kelompok berbagai konsentrasi ekstrak. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada kekasaran permukaan plat resin sebelum dan setelah perendaman dengan tablet effervescent ekstrak biji kurma Ajwa dalam berbagai konsentrasi ekstrak, namun terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada kelompok kontrol positif
Kata kunci: tablet effervescent; biji kurma ajwa; kekasaran permukaan; plat resin akrilik
