Introduction: Mouth rinse containing essential oil is one of the most popular, over the counter dental products which has been promoted to have anti-inflammatory, anti-plaque and anti-microbial properties. An essential oil alcohol-free mouth rinse with green tea has been introduced recently and promoted for management of periodontitis and gingivitis. As the role of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) mouth rinse in management of periodontal disease has been evaluated previously, the aim of this study is to compare the tolerability of none-alcohol containing green tea-based (NAGT) mouth rinse with CHX mouth rinse.
Methods: Forty healthy subjects were enrolled in September 2018 at King Abdulaziz University and allocated randomly to two study arms: NAGT mouth rinse and chlorhexidine gluconate mouth rinse. Study subjects were instructed to follow the manufacturer instructions and rinse twice daily for two weeks. Collected data included age, gender, smoking history in addition to subjective assessment using a validated questionnaire. Intraoral clinical examination was completed at baseline and 2-weeks time point.
Results: The data of 36 patients were included in this study and analyzed. At 2 weeks, NAGT group reported higher burning sensation score compared to chlorhexidine group (mean: 4.33 and 0.6 respectively; P < 0.05). Reported mucosal dryness was more evident in NAGT group (mean: 1.9 Vs 1.7 for chlorhexidine group). Oral examination revealed significant mucosal desquamation (27.8%) in NAGT group. However, oral ulceration was reported equally in both groups (5.6%).
Conclusion: The current data demonstrates an overall less tolerability of a non-alcohol containing green tea-based mouth rinse compared to chlorhexidine gluconate. Further long term randomized clinical trials are recommended to confirm our findings.

Influence of chlorhexidine dentin disinfection on universal adhesive performance: Interfacial adaptation and bond strength assessments.
PLoS One
December 2024
Departement of Restorative Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of chlorhexidine (CHX) cavity disinfectant on interfacial microleakage and micro-tensile bond strength (μTBS) of a universal adhesive bonded to dentin in both self-etch (SE) and etch-and-rinse (ER) modes.
Methods: Class I cavities were prepared in the coronal dentin of extracted human teeth and assigned to two etching modes (SE or ER), then subdivided by disinfection with or without CHX (n = 5). Cavities were restored using Single Bond Universal Adhesive and Filtek Z350 XT composite.
Effect of a blood culture collection bundle on decreasing the contamination rate.
PLoS One
December 2024
Department of Respiratory Medicine, Tokoname City Hospital, Tokoname, Aichi, Japan.
In this study, we examined the effect of a bundled approach to blood collection for blood culture on decreasing contamination. Commensal organisms were considered contaminants on the basis of the clinical course if they were recovered from only a single blood draw (set) and if a positive result for two sets was not obtained within 72 hours. The main elements of the bundle were blood collection by venipuncture, skin preparation with a chlorhexidine alcohol swab, disinfection of culture bottles, and use of a sterile blood transfer device instead of the two-needle technique for inoculation.

Alzheimer's is an advanced nervous disorder related to aging. The present study aimed to determine the effect of eight-week aerobic training, along with the consumption of Linalool, Cineole, and β-Bourbonene, on the prevention and improvement of Alzheimer's disease. Mice were randomly assigned to 8 groups: control group, mice induced with Alzheimer's disease treated with β-amyloid (Alzheimer group), Alzheimer's mice treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medicine (Linalool with a concentration of 25 mg/kg, Cineole with a concentration of 100 mg/kg, and β-Bourbonene with a concentration of 10 μg/ml) by gavage for 8 weeks (Alzheimer+Biocompounds group), Alzheimer's mice treated with aerobic exercise with a moderate intensity treadmill for 8 weeks (Alzheimer's+Training group), Alzheimer's mice treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medicine and aerobic exercise for 8 weeks (Alzheimer+Biocompounds+Training group), healthy mice initially treated with bioactive compounds of herbal medication (Linalool with a concentration of 25 mg/kg, Cineol with a concentration of 100 mg/kg, and β-Bourbonene with a concentration of 0.

Objectives: The prevalence of dental caries is high in Japan, leading to a huge burden of overall expenditure on dental caries treatment for the population. School-based fluoride mouth-rinse (S-FMR) has been implemented as a public health intervention. However, its cost-effectiveness remains unclear, where universal health insurance covers a broad range of dental treatments at relatively low cost.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of several antiseptic mouthwashes on the dentin microtensile bond strength of self-etch adhesive, considering the influence of rinsing with water.
Methods: Forty flat dentin surfaces were produced by sectioning sound extracted third molars. They were randomly divided into four main groups: (1) artificial saliva (control); (2) 1 % hydrogen peroxide; (3) 0.
