Background: Post-operative pain is a common finding after endodontic treatment, its incidence ranges from 3% to 58%. It may be due microbial, mechanical or chemical injury the periapical tissues. Calcium hydroxide has been recommended for use as an intracanal medicament based on antibacterial, antiresorptive and tissue dissolving properties. The of chlorhexidine gluconate suggested either in fo...

proteomics has emerged since 1995 for studying the total proteome of cells, tissues, or organisms at any condition. the study of proteins has a fundamental importance because they are the functional and final molecules of the gene expression process and proteomics could be a valuable technique for achieving this purpose. mass spectrometry is a complementary technique for proteomics that allows ...

Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate the sustained release effect of 2% chlorhexidine and its combination with 2% chitosan, in vitro. Method: The sustained release effect of chlorhexidine and its combination with chitosan was determined using a UV spectrophotometer. Results: UV spectrophotometer analysis for the sustained release of chlorhexidine showed that almost 100% of chlorhe...

BACKGROUND This paper explores the perspectives of health care providers regarding the use of 7.1% Chlorhexidine Digluconate (CHX) gel that releases 4% chlorhexidine for newborn umbilical cord care under a managed access program (MAP) implemented in Bungoma County of Kenya. Understanding the perspectives of providers regarding CHX is important since they play a key role in the health system and...

CONTEXT Antimicrobial efficacy of subgingival chlorhexidine (CHX) application using two different vehicles of delivery. AIMS The aim was to evaluate the efficacy of CHX varnish and gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in reducing microbial count within moderate to deep periodontal pockets. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Experimental parallel mouth study. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total o...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of different concentrations of chlorhexidine on the decline in force of orthodontic elastics. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a laboratory study, five groups of samples were tested, with one control group represented by distilled water (group 1) and four experimental groups: 0.12% manipulated chlorhexidine (group 2), 0.2% manipulated chlorhexidine (group 3), 0.12% c...

Generalized periodontitis is one of the most common dental diseases. This pathology very often occurs, progresses or exacerbates on background concomitant somatic pathologies, such as diabetes, obesity, aging, hypertension, and in last year, coronavirus disease. The main mechanisms causal relationships these pathologies with status have not been studied enough. course generalized includes infla...

BACKGROUND Chlorhexidine may cause type I and type IV allergy. Some chlorhexidine-allergic individuals have been exposed in the healthcare setting as patients or healthcare workers, but for others the source of sensitization is unknown. Chlorhexidine may be used as a preservative or an antimicrobial agent in cosmetic products at a concentration up to 0.3%, as set by the European Cosmetics Direc...
