INTRODUCTION: Adequate plaque control becomes essential for reducing the progression of periodontal disease. Plaque management consists several mechanical procedures and chemical agents that retard the formation of plaque. AIM: To compare clinical outcomes of chlorhexidine gluconate mouthwash and Hiora herbal mouthwash in gingivitis patients. MATERIALS AND METHOD: The study was conducted among 30 patients. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, Group I used Chlorhexidine mouthwash and Group II received Hiora mouthwash. Clinical parameters such as Plaque Index (PI), Gingival Index (GI), Probing depth (PD) and Clinical Attachment Loss (LA) were recorded just before initiation of oral prophylaxis. After completion of oral prophylaxis, patients were advised to use mouthwash and were recalled after two weeks for further recording of clinical parameters. The collected data was thus statistically analysed to arrive at the results using SPSS version 24.0 and applying the student's t-test. RESULTS: Both the groups reported significant improvement in clinical parameters. When two mouthwashes were compared, a statistically significant difference in the mean value of PI (0.02) and GI (0.01), CAL and PD between the two experimental groups whereas no significant differences were observed before and after therapeutic interventions. CONCLUSION: The study concluded that herbal mouthwash are comparably effective in comparison to other conventional mouthwash in controlling dental biofilm

Streptococcus (S) pyogenes one of the major Gram-positive pathogens responsible for upper respiratory tract and nosocomial infections. This is a Gram Positive, aerobic, no motile, and non-spore-forming ubiquitous bacteria. The present study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro antibacterial activity of ethanol and aqueous extract of peppermint and garlic against 29 isolates of S. pyogenes recovered from the throat sample of patientsin Swat KPK-Pakistan. These isolates were purified to identify the target bacterial isolates by gram staining and biochemical tests. The Agar dilution and well method was applied for the antibacterial activity of garlic and peppermint extracts. All of the subject isolates were exposed to different concentrations of peppermint. MIC of aqua extract of peppermint was 250µL/mL and ethanol extract was 100µL/mL. The zone size was 29mm and 36mm respectively. So the ethanol extract of peppermint was found to be more effective as compared to the aqueous extract. On the other hand, Garlic has shown equal effectiveness of water and ethanol extraction with MIC value of all is 50µL/mL and zone of inhibition was 38mm. Ciprofloxacin antibiotic disk was used as reference standard.

Aim: The current study’s objective was to assess and contrast the benefits of herbal and chemical mouthwash in patients with persistent, widespread gingivitis. Material and Method: Forty-five patients between the ages of 30 and 50 having persistent generalized gingivitis were enrolled in the study and randomly assigned to three groups: Group A received oral prophylaxis, group B received oral prophylaxis and prescribed chemical mouthwash, group C received oral prophylaxis and prescribed herbal mouthwash. The patients were under observation for forty-five days. At the baseline, 7th, 30th, and 45th day gingival index was measured, and the data were statistically analyzed. The one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-hoc test were performed. Result: The gingival index showed a significant difference. Over time, the gingival index tends to decrease with the use of herbal mouthwash. Conclusion: In summary, our initial investigation demonstrates that herbal mouthwashes are just as successful in reducing gingival inflammation as chlorhexidine further significant difference observed in 30th and 45th day with chlorhexidine. Therefore, in addition to routine dental care, these ayurvedic medications can be taken to reduce gingivitis.
