“ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY OF ASSISTING CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES ON ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS AND S. MUTANS IN ROOT CANALS”

Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 12

Abstract

The anatomic complexity of the root canal system, organic tissues and some bacteria such as Enterococcus faecalis, which are commonly, located in dentinal tubules as well as in isthmus and ramification areas. This microorganism was chosen because of its ability to penetrate dentinal tubules and colonize the root canal system. The purpose of this study was to compare in vitro the effectiveness of chlorhexidine digluconate and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) associated with root canals of human teeth infected with Enterococcus faecalis and S. mutans. Freshly extracted human tooth's [n=40] were taken and preserved in formalin and solution was changed after 72 hours. E. faecalis and S. mutans were cultured in blood agar and brain heart infusion medium. Chlorhexidine digluconate 0.2-2%, NAOCL 5.25%, was used to irrigate canals. Chlorhexidine digluconate showed better result against E. faecalis.
