Photodynamic effects of curcumin against cariogenic pathogens.
BACKGROUND DATA The presence of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus in dental structure is an indicator of a cariogenic biofilm. Photodynamic therapy is a technique that involves the activation of photosensitizers by light in the presence of oxygen, resulting in the production of reactive radicals capable of inducing cell death. Reduction of bacteria levels can provide additional...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Activity of Mentha Arvensis against Clinical Isolates of Human Cariogenic Pathogens- an In-vitro Study
Patients with chronic dental infection are usually treated with antibiotics. However, the value of antibiotics was decreasing because increased resistance in bacteria. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of herbal crude extract of Mentha arvensis in human Cariogenic pathogens. In this study we obtained crud extract of Mentha arvensis in different solvent 50% and 10% methanol...
متن کاملPhotodynamic Inactivation of Endopathogenic Microbiota Using Curcumin- mediated Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy
Root canal disinfection is one of the main factors governing success of endodontic therapy. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is presented as a promising antimicrobial therapy that can eliminate microbiota present in infected root canal systems. In this study, a series of experiments investigated the effects of aPDT on cell viability and biofilm degradation ability of endopathogenic mic...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Activity of Few Medicinal Plants against Clinically Isolated Human Cariogenic Pathogens—An In Vitro Study
Hexane, ethyl acetate, ethanol and methanol extracts of Psidium guajava, Terminalia chebula, Mimusops elengi and Achyranthes aspera were tested against the dental caries causing bacteria Streptococcus mutans and fungus Candida albicans isolated from caries infected patients. All the four extracts of P. guajava showed activity against both S. mutans and C. albicans. Maximum zone of inhibition wa...
