Antimicrobial Activity of Nano-Magnesium Hydroxide Against Oral Bacteria and Application in Root Canal Sealer

BACKGROUND: The goal of the present work was to assess the antibacterial activity of nano-magnesium hydroxide (NMH) against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and to explore the antimicrobial function of AH Plus™ sealer incorporating NMH. MATERIAL/METHODS: The antimicrobial behavior of NMH against S....

description BACKGROUND: The goal of the present work was to assess the antibacterial activity of nano-magnesium hydroxide (NMH) against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and to explore the antimicrobial function of AH Plus™ sealer incorporating NMH. MATERIAL/METHODS: The antimicrobial behavior of NMH against S. mutans was evaluated with bactericidal tests. A modified direct contact test was used to assess the antimicrobial activity of unset AH Plus containing NMH after 5 minutes, 20 minutes, and 60 minutes of contact with bacteria. The antimicrobial effects and the amount of surface-adhering bacteria of the solidified materials were explored by SEM and confocal laser scanning microscopy, respectively. RESULTS: NMH powder presented excellent antimicrobial activity against S. mutans. Mg(2+) and OH(−) were not the main factors resulting in bacterial death. Approximately 93.1% and 98% of the S. mutans were killed in the AH Plus+7% NMH group after incubation for 5 minutes and 20 minutes, respectively. AH Plus with 5% or 7% NMH were more potent against S. mutans compared with AH Plus alone (P<0.05). Moreover, the antibacterial function of AH Plus was lost after setting. NMH enabled the solidified AH Plus to still have antibacterial properties on the seventh day. CONCLUSIONS: NMH can be used to modify AH Plus sealer to eradicate residual bacteria and prevent reinfection.
