ABSTRACT
Malocclusion is a mismatch of the relationship between the dental arch and the jaw arch that deviates from the normal state. The right way to correct malocclusion is orthodontic treatment. However, orthodontic treatment usually takes about 1-2 years. The length of treatment is a major problem in orthodontic treatment. For this reason, an effort is needed to accelerate orthodontic treatment. One of them can use starfruit leaf extract for herbal plants. This study was conducted to determine the difference in the width of the periodontal ligament space in the tension area on the teeth of male Wistar rats induced by orthodontic mechanical force given starfruit leaf extract. This research is a laboratory experimental research with a post- test control group design. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were used as samples. The sample was divided into two groups, namely the control group and the treatment group. Starfruit leaf extract was given to the treatment group, while the control group was not given starfruit leaf extract. The treatment and control groups were euthanized on days 8, 15, and 22. After euthanasia, tissue was cut on the right maxillary M-1 tooth which was taken to make histological preparations stained with Hematoxylin Eosin. The mean width of the periodontal ligament space in the treatment group was narrower than the control group on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days. Starfruit leaf extract can reduce the width of the periodontal ligament space in the tooth pull area of male Wistar rats (Rattus Norvegicus) induced by orthodontic mechanical forces by giving starfruit leaf extract rather than without starfruit leaf extract.
