The use of a new chemical device based on silver and cationic surfactants as a new approach for daily oral hygiene: A preliminary study on a group of periodontal patients

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the abatement power of oral microbial loading of a new gel formulation based on the complex silver-2-mercaptobenzoate, chlorhexidine digluconate and didecyldimethylammonium chloride (named ADC) through polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The study sample consists of a group of 20 patients with chronic periodontal disease. Patients were over 25 years of age and did not undergo surgical or non-surgical periodontal treatment in the previous 6 months. The study sample was allotte… Show more

“…A preliminary study of a new oral gel formulation, ADC, named after its active ingredients—Ag+ ions (silver-2-mercaptobenzoate), CHX digluconate, and didecyldimethylammonium chloride, showed its good clinical efficacy when used in daily oral hygiene. The results show a statistically significant reduction in the total bacterial load without any noticeable side effects [ 44 ]. The topical application of both the gingiva-adhering and the soluble form of a CHX gel has also shown to improve the clinical parameters after scaling and root planing when compared to no application [ 45 ].…”
