Q

chlorhexidine MOA

A

o Bisbiguanide cationic antiseptic with broad action against a wide array of bacteria including Gram-positive and negative bacteria, facultative anaerobes, aerobes, and yeasts.
-It adsorbs to different negatively charged sites, including mucous membranes, salivary pellicle on teeth, titanium surfaces, bacteria, extracellular polysaccharides, and glycoproteins.

Q

is chlorhexidine bacterio cidal or static

A

Bacteriostatic at lower concentrations (low MW molecules escape from microbes); bactericidal at higher concentrations (precipitation and coagulation of proteins in the cytoplasm)

Q

is SnF2 effective as a dentrifice or mouthwash?

A

o Paraskevas & van der Weijden: Good evidence for stannous fluoride dentrifice, but NOT the mouthwash or the mouthwash+dentrifice

Q

what is SnF2 combined with?

A

o combine with SHMP - sodium hexametaphosphate - a pyrophosphate variant that was added to overcome the staining of SnF2, pyrophosphate inhibits crystal growth of calculus (ie. Anti-calculus)

Q

classification of triclosan

A

o Anti-microbial
o Anti-inflammatory

17
Q

what are some problems with triclosan

A

Weatherly & Gosse 2017: causes staining, carcinogen, increase spontaneous abortion rates, asthma, allergies and food sensitization, decrease newborn’s weight, length, head circumference; decrease in fertility; decreased BMI; increased total T3 levels; increased ROS, byproducts are known to exert endocrine disruptor activity

18
Q

does adding dentifrice improve mechanical removal of plaque

A

no (Valkenburg 2019)

19
Q

which have the best GI improvement according to Valkenburg 2019

A

Triclosan and stannous fluoride

20
Q

how effective is baking soda for reducing PI and GI

A

Valkenburg 2019
-A small reduction in bleeding scores can be expected from BS but NOT sig
-sig reduction for plaque scores

21
Q

how effective is L-arginine

A

He 2016:
- microbial change that shifts away from S. mutans and towards S. gordonii (less cariogenic), reducing biofilm mass, and makes the environment more neutral (less acidic).

22
Q

which brands have l-arginine

23
Q

Can you have CHX regimen without brushing?

A

Zanatta 2007:
-little antiplaque and anti-gingivitis effect on previously plaque-covered surfaces
-need biofilm disruption before the initiation of CHX mouth-rinse
-chx cannot penetrate into biofilm that deep.

24
Q

Is pre-procedural rinsing with chx effective for SRP?

A

Veksler 1991:
-Pre-rinsing with CHX reduces salivary bacterial levels in the oral cavity prior to treatment
-reduced salivary bacteria during SRP
-antimicrobial effect of CHX in saliva persisted during SRP

25
according to newman 1989, how did chx affect bacterial species post-surgery?
At 2 weeks: - SS increase in gram+ cocci, and SS decrease in Capnocytophaga; 85% of the plaque flora at this time was gram+ facultative bacteria (mostly cocci)
26
why is chx used post sx
Newman 1989: -sig reduces bacterial risk factors associated with gingival inflammation, wound healing, and periodontal disease -younger, less mature plaque associated with clinical health. Westfelt 1983: -improvement in PI,GI,PD -CHX is almost as effective as professional debridement in supragingival plaque control
27
how does chx help in wound healing and dry socket post sx
Romero-Olid 2023: -sig improved wound healing (1.52x) -Improved third molar healing -sig reduced chance of alveolar osteitis in both third molar and simple extraction -sig reduction in erythema -decreasing post-surgical complications Note: 0.20% gel-form is best
28
according to Tsourounakis, what dilution reduced cell migration and lead to cell death (even 7 days after initial exposure)
dilutions of 5% CHX
29
how effective is EO for PI and GI
Araujo 2015: -reduction of gingivitis by 16% -reduction of plaque by 27.7%
30
how does EO compare to floss (as an adjunct)
Stoeken 2007 -sig reduction in gingivitis and plaque -NO difference in gingivitis when compared to floss -more plaque reduction interproximally than floss
31
CHX versus EO
Van der Weijden 2015 PI - CHX better, EO is second choice GI - no difference
32
what is effective for treating dentin hypersensitivity
West 2015: -toothpastes: Arginine and Stannous fluorides toothpastes -Professionally: resin> varnish or lasers
