Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 5

Abstract

Introduction: Enterococcus faecalisis a gram positive anaerobe very resistant to irrigation and biomechanical preparation. For this reason, intra canal medication between appointments is recommended to further reduce bacteria in the root canal system. Here in the present study the combination of Ca(OH)2 and chlorhexidine and herbal extract tulsiis used. Aims & objectives: To evaluate whether CAOH & CHX combination is better than tulsi in primary and permanent teeth against e.faecalis. Materials and methodology: Calcium hydroxide paste(CAL-EXCEL), 1% Chlorhexidine, Tulsi extract (95%), 60 teeth which are 30 primary and 30 permanent teeth ,materials used in the present study, Contamination of root canals E. faecalis(ATCC 29212) was used as the test organism, The 60 samples were randomly separated into three experimental groups (n = 20) .One way Anova,Two way Anova, T test and Multiple comparision post hoc tests are used for the statistical analysis. Conclusion: study calcium hydroxide and chlorhexidine combination is more efficient than tulsi.
