Evaluation of potential antimicrobial chlorhexidine digluconate microencapsulated in model experimental dental biofilm

Background The formation of biofilm on the tooth surface is a result of the process of colonization of cariogenic bacteria, especially Streptococcus mutans, the main responsible for cariogenic (acid production) of dental biofilms [1]. The removal and chemical control of dental biofilm with chlorhexidine digluconate 0.12% (CLX) has been the most effective antimicrobial agent of choice clinic. Ho...

Comparative evaluation of antimicrobial efficacy of chlorhexidine digluconate and propolis when used as an intracanal medicament: ex vivo study

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of propolis when used as an intracanal medicament against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 (C. albicans) and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 51299 (E. faecalis) and compare this efficacy to that of Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX). Methods: This study utilised 70 freshly extracted single rooted human teeth. The crowns were section...
