Background: The main factor causing failure of root canal treatment is re-infection the bacterium Enterococcus faecalis, so it necessary to give right intracanal medicament. Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) an medicament often used in endodontic treatment. To increase effectiveness calcium hydroxide, a mixing agent needed. Mixing agents such as Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) 2% (aqueous) and Clinda...

Assess the antibacterial, physical and chemical properties of AH Plus, BioRoot RCS Pulp Canal Sealer (PCS) in contact with 2% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) used as final irrigant prior to root canal obturation. The antimicrobial were investigated by direct tests for planktonic biofilm growth E. faecalis, S. mutans, S.epidermidis S.aureus vitro. setting time, wettability, microhardness surface...

The objective of this study was to compare the effect of local application of chlorhexidine digluconate and combination of Iodoform with Butylparaminobenzoate in the management of dry socket. A Quasi experimental study was carried out on a total of sixty diagnosed cases of dry socket. Patients were randomly distributed among two treatment groups (30 patients in each group) i.e. patients of grou...

groups, each group consisting of five subjects that were made to rinse with warm and cold water and chlorhexidine solution at temperature of 47°C and 18°C respectively.Plaque The micro-organisms in bacterial plaque comprise a decisive etiological factor in the origin and development of inflammatory periodontal diseases. Plaque is a complex biofilm that contains various microorganisms and forms ...

UNLABELLED Chlorhexidine is an active agent commonly used against dental plaque in the mouth apart from fluorides applied to prevent caries. It is contained in toothpastes and mouthrinses. PURPOSE The aim of the study was to assess the effect of mouthrinses containing chlorhexidine digluconate on the activity of cathepsin C in human saliva. MATERIAL AND METHODS Material for analyses contain...

Since the use of antimicrobial agents is required in endodontic therapies, this study aimed at determining the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of chlorhexidine digluconate and paramonochlorophenol (PMC) against microorganisms commonly found in endodontic infections. Both agents were tested by agar dilution tests against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecal...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surface tension of calcium hydroxide (CH) associated with different substances (deionized distilled water, camphorated paramonochlorophenol, 2% chlorhexidine digluconate, Otosporin, 3% sodium lauryl ether sulphate; Furacin, PMC Furacin) using tensiometer. The action of the substances studied on the dentinal structure enhances the property of surface...
