Bacteroides FragilisGroup Infections in HIV-Infected Patients

Inhibitory activity of Aloe vera gel on some clinically isolated cariogenic and periodontopathic bacteria

“…These periodontopathogens are frequently isolated from periodontal pockets of patients with periodontitis, but up to now it has been unclear which species play the main role in pathogenesis. In this study, B. fragilis was used as an example of an opportunistic periodontopathogen, as many reports have documented the isolation of B. fragilis from dental plaque or periodontal pockets of patients with periodontitis (23)(24)(25).…”

Biofilm Removal and Antimicrobial Activity of Two Different Air‐Polishing Powders: An In Vitro Study

“…All strains have been previously selected for their ability to produce biofilm. S. aureus and C. albicans have been identified among species characteristic of peri‐implantitis but not periodontitis, 35‐38 whereas B. fragilis is an opportunistic periodontopathogen often present in various chronic endodontic and periodontal infections as well as in dental caries 39‐42 …”

“…S. aureus and C. albicans have been identified among species characteristic of peri-implantitis but not periodontitis, [35][36][37][38] whereas B. fragilis is an opportunistic periodontopathogen often present in various chronic endodontic and periodontal infections as well as in dental caries. [39][40][41][42] Glycine and Erythritol Powders Two different formulations are compared in this study: a powder (granulometry 25 mm) consisting of glycine and amorphous silica i and a powder (granulometry 14 mm) consisting of erythritol (99.7%), chlorhexidine (0.3%), and amorphous silica. ¶…”
