“…Sanguinarine topically applied showed some improvement over water (mean plaque score 0.206 and 0.345 respectively), but it was still far short of ideal when compared to chlorhexidine in its plaque reduction capacity (mean 0.038). These findings support previous reports indicating the superior antiplaque quality of chlorhexidine compared to sanguinarine (Abbas et al 1985, Wennstrom & Lindhe 1986).…”

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of rinsing and topical application of sanguinarine on labial surface plaque accumulation, compared with topically applied water, and compared with rinsing with chlorhexidine, while refraining from all oral hygiene measures for 5 days. Color photographs of the disclosed plaque were taken at the end of each phase of treatment and blindly traced using an Apple II micro-computer graphic tablet digitizer. The plaque score for each tooth was calculated by dividing the computer reading of the labial plaque surface area by the total labial surface area of the tooth. Topically applied sanguinarine showed better plaque reduction than mouthrinsing with sanguinarine. There was a significant reduction in plaque accumulation after rinsing with chlorhexidine compared with topically applied sanguinarine, water, and mouthrinsing with sanguinarine. The results of this study indicate that chlorhexidine is a more superior antiplaque agent than sanguinarine. The use of an Apple II micro-computer graphic tablet digitizer provided a valuable method for accurate plaque assessments.

“…At the end of each test period, a washout period of two weeks was allowed during which the volunteers were instructed to resume their previous mechanical plaque control measures [2]. Examination procedures were performed on a dental chair in the Department of Preventive, Pedodontic Dentistry at the Faculty of Dentistry at AlMustansiriya University with the aid of a dental mouth mirror and a Williams periodontal probe.…”

“…These arrangements gave a washout period of at 2 days for each subject between each treatment. (20,21) At (day 1), all volunteers received a final professional tooth cleaning, scaling and polishing with home care instruction that include three times daily tooth brushing with once dental flossing and were subsequently told to abstain all mechanical tooth cleaning effort for the next five days. They were asked to rinse, however, three times daily for one minute each time with 15 ml of distilled water mouth rinse or water extract of propolis 0.1%, 0.5% or ethanolic extract 0.5%, 1% or CHX 0.2%.…”

This study compared the clinical efficacy of different mouthwashes [0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX), 0.5%, 1% water extract of propolis, 0.5%, 1% ethanolic extract of propolis] with distilled water in their ability to inhibit plaque accumulation.In this double blind study, 10 (8 males and 2 females) dental students volunteers aged from 20-24 years, 1120 tooth surfaces from 280 teeth were examined. Each volunteer received a final professional tooth cleansing and was instructed to stop all mechanical tooth cleaning effort for next 5 days, where the mouthwashes used 3 times daily. Plaque system index (Silness and Löe, 1964) was obtained from teeth surfaces (buccal, lingual, mesial and distal) before and after the uses of mouthwashes.The results of this study showed significant difference (p < 0.05) between 0.2% CHX, 0.5% and 1% water extract of propolis, 0.5% ethanolic extract of propolis and distilled water, but non significant difference (p > 0.05) between CHX and 1% ethanolic extract of propolis in their ability to inhibit plaque accumulation.It can be concluded that the alcoholic extract of propolis may be used as adjunct to mechanical plaque control during the maintenance phase of therapy to ensure sustained low plaque level and this may meet patient approval because it is a natural substance and devoid of industrial chemical component.
