A comparative study of the antimicrobial activity of cacao ethanol extract and chlorhexidine digluconate on salivary Streptococcus mutans
Background: Dental caries is caused by interaction between three factors; microorganisms (dental plaque), the host (teeth and saliva) and the substrate (fermentable carbohydrates). Tooth decay is highly associated with Streptococcus mutans . Chlorhexidine (CHX) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent in reducing S. mutans . Suggestion of possible natural substitutes to chlorohexidine is cacao bean ethanol extract (CBEE). There are insufficient studies on evaluating the antibacterial activities of cacao bean ethanol extract versus chlorhexidine on oral salivary S. mutans . Aim of the study: The aim
