MOUTHWASH GOLD STANDARDS VERSUS MICROBIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
Over advanced dental cosmetic awareness, the commercially competent mouthwash and suppressed importance of the active ingredients have lead to increased dental trauma. In view of this, antimicrobial efficacy of oradex, oral B and listerine mouthwash were tested against the confirmed isolates of Bacillus cereus, Candida albicans, Lactobacillus spp., Lactobacillus buchneri, Sarcina spp., Staphylococcus spp., Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus spp., Streptococcus mitis and Streptococcus pneumoniae obtained from pre and post mouth wash rinse. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed according to CLSI (2015). Oradex mouthwash exhibited significant inhibition against all confirmed isolates, oral B mouthwash recorded similar results except against Streptococcus spp and cool mint listerine exhibited no inhibition. One-way ANOVA test proved there are variations in the effects exhibited by the three test mouthwash (p < 0.05). Pharmaceutical formulations, microbiological analysis and periodic education will mark the development of mouthwash quality that are safe and effective to use across all age groups.
