Abstract
Mouthwashes have been used to supplement the oral hygiene procedures.The antimicrobial activity efficacy of six commercially available products was assessed on to Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. Microbial survival was evaluated after being left in contact with the mouthwash products for 30, 60, and 90 seconds. The decimal reduction time (D-value),and the microorganisms logarithm reduction at contact time intervals were calculated from the obtained curves (Log CFU/mL vs time), and they were used for comparing the antimicrobial activity of analyzed products.Differences on microbial survival were observed,and the product compounded of essential oils showed the best antimicrobial activity.
