Sleep disorder was assessed by structured questionnaire. The oral microbiome was characterized by 16 S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing.

Characterization was performed via FTIR, SEM, and EDX. pH stability of AllGOAgNP, CaOH, CHX, and TAP was assessed at 5 min, 24 h, and 7 days using a digital pH meter. A total of 120 extracted human premolars were randomly assigned to four groups: (1) Control, (2) CaOH, (3) TAP, and (4) AllGOAgNP. Medicaments were applied and incubated at 37 °C with 100% humidity for 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months. Dentin microhardness was evaluated using a Vickers microhardness tester before and after treatment across the coronal, middle, and apical thirds. Additionally, antimicrobial efficacy against E. faecalis and C. albicans was assessed using the disc diffusion method, with inhibition zones measured for each medicament. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc test (p &lt; 0.05).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;FTIR analysis confirmed the successful incorporation of allicin, GO, AgNPs, and sodium alginate. SEM images showed a uniform nanoparticle distribution in the hydrogel, and EDX confirmed the presence of key elements, including silver and sulfur. The Allicin-GO-AgNP hydrogel maintained a near-neutral pH (mean 7.083), while CaOH (mean 12.297) and TAP (mean 12.683) exhibited highly alkaline pH levels. ANOVA results demonstrated significant differences in microhardness across groups and regions (p &lt; 0.05). The Allicin-GO-AgNP hydrogel exhibited significantly higher microhardness than CaOH and TAP across all regions (p &lt; 0.001), with no significant difference from the control in the coronal and middle thirds (p &gt; 0.05). SEM-EDX analysis of treated dentin confirmed minimal structural alterations in the Allicin-GO-AgNP hydrogel group compared to the control.
