Abstract
Objectives: The current dietary assessment still has many constraints, particularly related to the objectivity of data gathering. The dental calculus, which is usually considered as a medical waste of dental treatment, turns out to be a provider of abundant oral information. The objective of this study was to obtain information about the long-term intake of macronutrients from dental calculus content. Methods: This study is a descriptive study with a cross-sectional study design. The data used in this study were obtained from the assessment of carbohydrate, protein, and fat content of dental calculus. There were three groups of dental calculus samples. The first group was treated with the Anthron method to assess the carbohydrate content. The second group was treated with the Soxhlet extraction method. The third group was treated with SDS-PAGE. Twenty samples of dental calculus were taken using quota sampling method, each of which, was taken from the medical waste from the patient who got dental calculus cleaning treatment at Maranatha Dental Hospital. Results: The average concentration of carbohydrates from all dental calculus samples is 0.0246 ppm. The average fat level from dental calculus is 0.05754%. The average concentration of protein from all dental calculus samples is 1.9834 mg/ml. Conclusions: Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats can be examined from dental calculus; therefore, dental calculus can be an information source of long-term macronutrients intake.
