Comparing Anti-bacterial Effect of CO2 Laser and 0.2% Chlorhexidine Solution on Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa: In Vitro Study

Abstract

problems. The bacteria cause different diseases of the oral cavity, for example, Staphylococcus aureus bacteria lead to develop numerous diseases in the oral cavity such as angular cheilitis. S. aureus is the major cause of bacterial sialadenitis in salivary glands that is also the most common bacteria involved in the septic arthritis of temporomandibular joint which previously had arthritis. [1] In addition, the bacterium also is the reason of 90% of natural heart valve endocarditis. [2] Pseudomonas aeruginosa play an important role in necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis lesions and chronic suppurative otitis media, and

Heat Eliminating and Limiting Device - Possible Use in Orthodontics

“…In addition, propolis used in cosmetics and dietary supplements is in the form of an ethanol extract and this high amount of ethanol accompanied by the drug of disulfiram and metronidazole can cause nausea. [25] The main limitation in this study was extraction sedimantations, especially for propolis. Further studies need to be conducted to extend methods for better dissolution of propolis and provide it in homogenized structure.…”

Isolation and Identification of Bacteriophage Effective on Carbapenemase-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains

“…Using phage has satisfactorily reduced, the 24-h and 96-h biomasses of P. aeruginosa biofilms grown on microplates but has failed to reduce the 24-h and 96-h P. aeruginosa grown in extracted teeth models. [7] Watanabe et al conducted an investigation on phage therapy for intestinal infections in mice caused by P. aeruginosa. Mice treated with phage had less living Pseudomonas cells in their liver and spleen blood compared to the control group.…”

Determining the Antibacterial Activity of Chlorhexidine Mouthwashes with and without Alcohol against Common Oral Pathogens

“…1 Some types of oral microorganisms play an important role in pathogenesis infectious diseases of the mouth, jaw, and face, and are even involved in the generation of various infections in other parts of the body. 2 Hence, the reduction of microorganisms in the mouth prior to oral surgery or maxillofacial surgery, which are performed through the mouth, can play an important role in reducing the occurrence of infections after surgery. 3 One of the effective methods for reducing the number of microorganisms in the mouth is to employ antiseptic solutions, used as mouthwashes, often accompanied by other hygiene instructions and sometimes on their own, prior to surgery and in some cases even after surgery and during the wound-healing period.…”

“…Chemical modification of chlorhexidine in order to reduce its staining leads to decreased plaque inhibition. 2, 6…”

“…Chemical modification of chlorhexidine in order to reduce its staining leads to decreased plaque inhibition. 2,6 In order to realize solubility of nonpolar compounds, such as essential fats, and to eliminate oral bacteria, which are associated with bad breath and plaque formation, ethanol is added to different mouthwashes. Although deaths from overconsumption or side effects of alcohol-containing mouthwashes are rare, their use by children often leads to dangerous side effects and sometimes leads to non-lethal but toxic reactions.…”
