Introduction: Cinnamomum burmannii is commonly used in the treatment and is thought to be an anti-inflammation medicinal herb that may hasten recovery. Lip wound healing is a critical need for aesthetic performance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of natural lip balm C. Burmannii has been shown to speed up the healing of incision wounds in rats (Rattus norvegicus). Methods: This research was carried out in the laboratory biomedical Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Islam Bandung. In twenty-seven male rats weighing 200-300 g, a lip mucous incision of 10 mm length and 4 mm depth was surgically created. Simple random sampling was used to divide the animals into three treatment groups based on wound treatment after lip incision (The control group applied distillation water, the first group applied a lip balm placebo/base, and the second group applied natural lip balm C. burmannii) and then divided into three observation times (days 3rd, 7th, and14th). A lip biopsy was performed during each observation time to determine the success of the therapy. The macroscopic examination was carried out by counting the number of lip wounds that were closed around, while the microscopic examination was carried out by counting epithelialization with a Leica microscope and image raster software. Result: The length of the lip wound has greatly decreased in the C. Burmannii group with a p-value of 0,048 (p<0.05, and epithelialization was comparable across the board. Conclusion: The use of Cinnamomum burmannii natural lip balm is effective in accelerating lip wound healing by bringing the lip wound closer together. Effectiveness of Natural lip balm Cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmannii) in accelerating the incision wound healing process in Rattus norvegicus.Keywords: natural lip balm cinnamomum burmannii; wound closer; epithelialization
Introduction: Dental health services at primary health care (PHC) are the first and foremost effort to overcome dental health problems in the community, consisting of Individual Health Care (IHC), Community Dental Health Care (CDHC), and School Dental Health Care (SDHC). The COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia has hampered dental health services at PHC. This study aims to describe the implementation of dental health Care at the PHC from before COVID-19 pandemic to the new normal adaptation period. Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study conducted from January to February 2022. The sample consisted of 15 PHC in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, interviewing dentists and doing a checklist on the rubric for each activity implementation. Data processing by the percentage of implementation. Results: The implementation of promotive before the pandemic was 100%, when the pandemic decreased and increased again by almost 100% during the new normal adaptation period. Before the pandemic, most preventive measures were just 56%. During the pandemic, there were nearly no activities, and during the new normal adaptation period, there was an increase, but the percentage was low. The curative implementation before the Pandemic was almost 100% implemented. At the beginning of the pandemic, the implementation decreased, but 100% was carried out for counseling and referrals. Most care has been implemented up to 100% during the adaptation period. The implementation of rehabilitation during the pandemic period was still low (40%). At the beginning of the pandemic 13%, and during the adaptation period, there was an increase according to the pandemic period (33%). Conclusion: Before the pandemic, promotive and curative services had been maximized, while preventive and rehabilitative services still needed to be maximized. During the beginning of the pandemic, almost all services stopped. During the new normal adaptation period, all services have increased again compared to the initial period of the pandemic.
