Abstract
Dental materials are inevitably contaminated with oral microorganisms. To prevent transmission of infectious diseases, impressions need to be disinfected. In the present study, we examined the disinfection effects on impression materials and biofilm removal by sodium dichloroisocyanurate (SDIC). Exponentially growing Streptococcus mutans, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans, and dental plaque bacteria were suspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and exposed for 1, 5 and 10 min to 1 mL of the 10 ppm, 100 ppm, 1,000 ppm, and 10,000 ppm SDIC solutions. The bactericidal effect was evaluated by colony forming units of each microorganisms. Moreover, the effect of SDIC solution on S. mutans biofilm was examined. Bactericidal effects of SDIC solutions on oral bacteria on dental impression surfaces were assessed and the surface quality of dental casts after immersion in SDIC solution for 30 min was observed under a scanning electron microscope. The number of all bacterial strains, including plaque bacteria, were significantly decreased by SDIC solution treatment in a dose-dependent manner. Significant S. mutans biofilm removing activity of SDIC was observed in 1,000 and 10,000 ppm solution. The number of oral bacteria adhering to the surfaces of impressions markedly decreased following 10-min immersion in the 1,000 ppm SDIC solution. The 30-min immersion of dental impression in the 1,000 ppm SDIC solution did not adversely affect the surface roughness of dental casts. The results indicate that SDIC Solution is useful to deactivate oral bacteria on dental impression.
