Potensi Ekstrak Daun Asam Jawa (Tamarindus indica L) dalam Menghambat Pertumbuhan Bakteri Streptococcus mutans pada Resin Akrilik Heat-cured

Heat-cured acrylic resin is a material that is often used as a denture base. However, heat-cured acrylic resin is porous which can be a site for plaque accumulation. Streptococcus mutans is a microorganism that initiates plaque formation. Therefore, the cleanliness of the denture must always be maintained, one of which is by immersing the denture in 0.5% NaOCl solution. However, NaOCl can fade the color of acrylic resin and is corrosive. Alternative materials that can be used are materials derived from nature. Tamarind leaves are known to contain bioactive compounds that have antibacterial activity. The purpose of this study is to determine the potential of tamarind leaf extract at several concentrations that could inhibit the growth of S. mutans on heat-cured acrylic resin and the concentration that had the greatest ability to inhibit the growth of S. mutans on heat-cured acrylic resin. This type of research is a laboratory experimental study with a post-test-only control group design. Each acrylic resin plate will be contaminated with S. mutans for 24 hours and then immersed in the tamarind leaves extract concentration of 3.125%; 6.25%; 12.5%; 25%, positive control (NaOCl 0,5%), and negative control. The measurement of the number of S. mutans was carried out using a spectrophotometer. . The results showed that tamarind leaf extract was able to inhibit the growth of S. mutans on heat-cured acrylic resin and the highest concentrations in inhibiting the growth of S. mutans on heat-cured acrylic resin were 12.5% and 25%

Denture cleaning is needed to keep the denture base clean from contamination by microorganisms. Celery leaves are natural ingredients that contain flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and essential oils that have been proven to have antifungal properties. Previous research only observed the inhibitory zone. This research was aimed to analyse the effectiveness of celery leaf juice as a denture cleaner against the growth of Candida albicans on thermoplastic nylon denture base. Methods: Experimental laboratory with a post-test only control group design was conducted towards 25 disc-shaped thermoplastic nylon samples with a diameter of 10 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, and divided into five groups. Samples were contaminated with C. albicans after immersion in the negative control (aquadest) for 6 hours, positive control (effervescent tablets) for 15 minutes, and celery leaf juice with the concentrations of 25, 50, and 100% for 6 hours. The sample was then placed in the Sabouraud-dextrose broth (SDB) medium. The effectiveness of celery leaf juice was tested by determining the absorbance value of SDB media turbidity using a spectrophotometer. Data were analysed using one-way ANOVA and Least Significant Difference (LSD). Results: The concentration value of C. albicans in the negative control group was 0.380 x 108 CFU / mL, the positive control was 0.310 x 108 CFU / mL, the juice of celery leaves with the concentration of 25% was 0.243 x 108 CFU / mL, the concentration of 50% was 0.160 x 108 CFU / mL, and the concentration of 100% was 0.236 x 108 CFU / mL. Conclusion: Celery leaf juice is effective as a denture cleaner to inhibit the growth of C. albicans, with an effective concentration of 50%.
