Abstract
Background: impressing the patient's oral cavity in dentistry can pose a risk of cross infection between doctor and patient. Therefore it is necessary to disinfect the impression material to remove bacteria that stick to the impression material. Disinfection that can be used besides sodium hypochlorite can also extract red betel leaves. Purpose: to find out the difference of imbibition on immersion hydrocolloid irreversible alginate in sodium hypochlorite 1% and red betel leaf extract 100%. Method: this research is experimental with pretest and posttest control group design with 4 treatment groups, 2 groups were immersed in sodium hypochlorite 1% and 2 groups were immersed in red betel leaf extract 100%. Immersing time is 5 and 10 minutes. Each repetition is done 6 times. Negative molds are measured before and after immersion. Data were analyzed using the OneWay Anova Test. Results: The effects of alginate mold imbibition on sodium hypochlorite immersion were greater than immersion in red betel leaf extract. Conclusion: There was a significant difference (p <0.05) in the imbibition of the printed hydrocolloid irreversible alginate soaked in sodium hypochlorite 1% and red betel leaf extract 100% for 5 minutes, and 10 minutes
