“…Chlorhexidine is one of the most widely used and most effective mouthrinses and is therefore considered the gold standard 8,9,10,11. Chlorhexidine has both bactericidal and bacteriostatic activity and has been shown to be the most effective antiplaque agent for both short- and long-term use 10,11. Listerine® is an over-the-counter product approved for the control of supragingival plaque 9.…”

PurposeThis study assessed the effectiveness of three antimicrobial mouthrinses in reducing microbial growth on photostimulable phosphor (PSP) plates.Materials and MethodsPrior to performing a full-mouth radiographic survey (FMX), subjects were asked to rinse with one of the three test rinses (Listerine®, Decapinol®, or chlorhexidine oral rinse 0.12%) or to refrain from rinsing. Four PSP plates were sampled from each FMX through collection into sterile containers upon exiting the scanner. Flame-sterilized forceps were used to transfer the PSP plates onto blood agar plates (5% sheep blood agar). The blood agar plates were incubated at 37℃ for up to 72 h. An environmental control blood agar plate was incubated with each batch. Additionally, for control, 25 gas-sterilized PSP plates were plated onto blood agar and analyzed.ResultsThe mean number of bacterial colonies per plate was the lowest in the chlorhexidine group, followed by the Decapinol, Listerine, and the no rinse negative control groups. Only the chlorhexidine and Listerine groups were significantly different (p=0.005). No growth was observed for the 25 gas-sterilized control plates or the environmental control blood agar plates.ConclusionThe mean number of bacterial colonies was the lowest in the chlorhexidine group, followed by the Decapinol, Listerine, and the no rinse groups. Nonetheless, a statistically significant difference was found only in the case of Listerine. Additional research is needed to test whether a higher concentration (0.2%) or longer exposure period (two consecutive 30 s rinse periods) would be helpful in reducing PSP plate contamination further with chlorhexidine.

“…As recently reported in the literature (23,24), the use of mouthwashes containing 0.2% of CHX showed a substantial reduction of gingival inflammation and plaque indexes (23,24). Several studies demonstrated that subjects that performed their oral care with mouthwashes containing 0.2% of CHX improved significantly their P. Index (25), the B.…”

SummaryIntroduction. A good control of bacterial plaque is an essential factor for the success of periodontal therapy, therefore it is the main objective that the clinician together with the patient must get to have a healthy periodontium. The plaque control with mouthwashes is the most important home therapy as it helps to reduce the formation of plaque between the mechanical removal with a toothbrush. Aim. Authors analyzed the clinical data from a trial carried out with 3 different mouthwashes containing 0.2% Chlorhexidine (CHX). In addition, the ADS (Anti Discoloration System -Curaden Healthcare) was tested in comparison with the other mouthwashes without this system. Materials and methods. We tested antiplaque activity showed by 3 of the most commercialized mouthwashes, moreover, we tested the ability in reducing the dental staining related to the oral assumption of Chlorhexidine. Discussion and conclusion. Our results demonstrated the clinical efficacy of the 3 mouthwashes with CHX. Particularly performing was the anti discoloration system (Curaden Healthcare), with a clinical detection of dental stainings significantly less than the others tested. This study demonstrated the clinical efficacy of ADS system in the reduction of tooth staining, without a loss of antiplaque activity with respect to the competing mouthwashes containing CHX.

“…5 Estão disponíveis no mercado diferentes antissépticos, mas a Clorohexidina (CHX) é desde há muito tempo o gold standard, devido ao seu efeito anti -bacteriano e anti -placa. 6,7 Apesar da sua eficácia, a CHX apresenta alguns efeitos secundários (coloração da mucosa e alterações de paladar). Numa tentativa de diminuir estes efeitos começou a associar--se a CHX com determinados produtos, como o Quitosano (CHI), reduzindo assim a concentração de CHX utilizada.…”
