“…Similar to propolis-containing dentifrices in other previous studies [35][36][37], the present dentifrice preparation also showed microbiological efficacy in vivo. Treatment with the BRP dentifrice for 28 days significantly reduced the Lactobacillus spp.…”

“…Among dentifrices augmented with propolis, Skaba et al [34] observed that a dentifrice containing Brazilian green propolis was effective as an adjunct for removing dental plaque and improving the health of the marginal periodontium in patients with periodontitis within 4 weeks of the start of treatment. In a study by Peycheva et al [35], a dentifrice mixed with Bulgarian propolis before brushing was more effective than dentifrice without propolis in reducing the plaque index and gingival index in patients with moderate plaque-induced gingivitis, in addition to antimicrobial efficacy against various microorganisms such as S. mutans, Gram-negative cocci and Gram-positive rods.…”

Purpose:The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of a dentifrice containing Brazilian Red Propolis (BRP) against salivary Lactobacillus spp. and plaque formation. Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind clinical trial. Forty-two participants were randomized into two groups according to the dentifrice employed: G1 (fluoridated BRP dentifrice) and G2 (fluoridated common dentifrice). Saliva was collected and the visible plaque index (VPI) was recorded at the baseline (D0) and 4 weeks after day 0 (D28). Microbiological analysis was performed using two dilutions. Lactobacillus spp. isolates were identified and their abundance was expressed as log (CFU/mL). Results: For the first dilution, the counts of Lactobacillus spp. in G1 was 1.15 ± 0.41 at D0 and 0.68 ± 0.15 at D28 (P < 0.05

“…The use of propolis on technological development in dentistry and oral health has been frequent because it is a nontoxic raw material, with traditional use in natural medicine and that shows some known pharmacological activities as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and wound healing ( Koo et al, 2002 ; Freires et al, 2016 ; Oliveirados et al, 2017 ; de Carvalho Furtado et al, 2018 ; Bezerra et al, 2020 ; da silva Barboza et al, 2021 ). It has been reported in scientific literature the use of propolis on development of varnish ( De Luca et al, 2014 ; Neto et al, 2020 ), toothpaste ( Wiatrak et al, 2017 ; Peycheva et al, 2019 ), total-etching adhesive system ( Porto et al, 2021 ), cavity cleaning agent ( Celerino de Moraes Porto et al, 2018 ) and endodontic irrigant ( Parolia et al, 2021 ). The use of propolis was not found in the development of composite resins in scientific literature and in technological literature.…”

The aim of this study was to obtain a Brazilian red propolis (BRP) enriched composite resin and to perform the characterization of its antibacterial activity, mechanical, and physical-chemical properties. Brazilian red propolis ethyl acetate extract (EABRP) was characterized by LC-ESI-Orbitrap-FTMS, UPLC-DAD, antibacterial activity, total flavonoids content, and radical scavenging capacity. BRP was incorporated to a commercial composite resin (RC) to obtain BRP enriched composite at 0.1, 0.15 and 0.25% (RP10, RP15 and RP25, respectively). The antibacterial activity RPs was evaluated against Streptococcus mutans by contact direct test and expressed by antibacterial ratio. The RPs were characterized as its cytotoxicity against 3T3 fibroblasts, flexural strength (FS), Knoop microhardness (KHN), post-cure depth (CD), degree of conversion (DC%), water sorption (Wsp), water solubility (Wsl), average roughness (Ra), and thermal analysis. Were identified 50 chemical compounds from BRP extract by LC-ESI-Orbitrap-FTMS. EABRP was bacteriostatic and bactericide at 125 and 500 μg/ml, respectively. The RP25 exhibited antibacterial ratio of 90.76% after 1 h of direct contact with S. mutans (p < 0.0001) while RC no showed significative antibacterial activity (p = 0.1865), both compared with cell control group. RPs and RC no showed cytotoxicity. RPs exhibited CD from 2.74 to 4.48 mm, DC% from 80.70 to 83.96%, Wsp from 17.15 to 21.67 μg/mm3, Wsl from 3.66 to 4.20 μg/mm3, Ra from 14.48 to 20.76 nm. RPs showed thermal resistance between 448–455°C. The results support that propolis can be used on development of modified composite resins that show antibacterial activity and that have compatible mechanical and physical-chemical properties to the indicate for composite resins.

“…Various epidemiological studies have shown that gingivitis is prevalent in children and adolescents worldwide, and the results obtained by various authors show that about half of children in early adolescence have plaqueassociated gingivitis [3,4,5,6]. Other author groups found a lower relative share of these diseases, which is probably due to the use of different indices to objectify the gingival status in the study of children [7].…”

Aim: The aim of the present study is an epidemiological study of risk factors and the prevalence of periodontal disease in children aged 10-14 years. Materials and methods: The subject of the study were 457 children. All were clinically examined, and the data were recorded on a specially designed card. Each child was assessed for risk periodontal profile in 4 levels, which includes: assessment of oral hygiene habits; registration of dental status, reporting of carious lesions and obturations on surfaces dangerous for periodontal health (proximal, cervical); the presence of orthodontic anomalies and other risk factors; assessment of the plaque index of Silness-Loe (PLSL); assessment of gingival index according to Loe and Silness (GILS) Results: Carious lesions at risk for gingival inflammation surfaces are registered in 59% of children, at risk for periodontal health fillings in 32% and orthodontic anomalies in 37%. The studied children showed relatively good oral hygiene (PLSL-0.43 ± 0.28), which improved with age, with the largest amount of plaque observed on the proximal and vestibular surfaces. Over 88% of children have mild gingival inflammation (GILS-0.56 ± 0.42), mainly affecting the front teeth in both jaws. Conclusions: Gingival inflammation in 10-14 year old children covers more than half of the studied children, with mild forms of inflammation predominating with a relatively low oral hygiene index. 2/3 of registered caries and 1/3 of the fillings have a localization which presents a risk for periodontal health. Orthodontic anomalies are the next most serious risk factor for plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation.
