  • Mouth Rinses
    Mouth Rinses We may recommend a mouth rinse to you for one or more of the following reasons: Periodontal Disease, Gingivitis, Halitosis (bad breath), sensitive teeth, decay or increased risk of decay, dry mouth, minor mouth sore or irritation. Red= RX only Blue= Available through your dentist only Green= Over the counter *Common side effects found with many mouth rinses include the possibility of staining. We still encourage you to use the rinse that treats your problem because none of the stains these rinses cause are permanent. With good oral hygiene on your part, using your bleaching trays and bleach as needed, you can keep the staining to a minimum. If there is any staining that you can’t prevent, it can always be easily removed by your hygienist at your next cleaning. If you have periodontal disease or Gingivitis, we may recommend an antimicrobial/antiseptic type rinse. These rinses kill germs, reduce plaque, redness, swelling and bleeding when used in conjunction with proper brushing and flossing. Some common examples of antiseptic rinses are: Peridex or Perioguard oral rinses are available by prescription only. Active ingredient is chlorhexidine gluconate .12%. These also contain alcohol 11.6%. Can cause staining of the teeth*, taste alteration and dry mouth. Periomed Oral rinse is available through your dentist only. Active ingredient is stannous fluoride .63%. It is alcohol free. Periomed provides antimicrobial activity for up to 8 hours. Also promotes enamel remineralization, and helps reduce sensitivity. Can cause staining* and dry mouth. Listerine Antiseptic: Active ingredient is alcohol 26.9% in the original gold Listerine, and 21.6% in the other flavors.

It is an infectious disease of microbiological origin that results in localized dissolution and destruction of the calcified tissue of teeth. It is a diseased caused by multitude of factors like host, agent and environmental factors. Microbes like S. mutans, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Actinomyces viscosus are the main pathogenic species involved with initiation and progression of dental caries. Indian surveys demonstrate caries prevalence of 58% in school children. Among the U.S. Population surveys showed 45.3% children and 93.8% of adults. A large costing of dental treatments whether prevention using remineralizing agents and treatment using restorative materials can be reduced if we could eradicate dental caries completely. Thus the ultimate objective of community health is the complete elimination of this disease. Development of dental caries vaccines is a boon for eradication of this microbiological disease.

Research, Faridabad, India. Contact Us: www.ijohmr.com ABSTRACT Dental Caries is a microbiologic disease that depends on various factors like host, agent and environment. The Colonization of S. mutans occurs in the oral cavity at the age of 2-3 years. This period is known as Window of Infectivity. Different preventive approaches have been laid for the prevention of Dental Caries, among which Caries Vaccine is the one which has caught researchers’ attention at present. Immunization can be both active or passive. The targets of vaccine are proteinous substances that are present on bacterial surface, enzymes. Immunity is achieved by concentration of immune response on suspected functional areas of targeted components by using synthetic peptides and recombinant DNA Technology. Application on human depend on the successful animal trials. KEYWORDS: Vaccine, Mutans Streptococci, Immunoglobin, Recombinant DNA Technology AA aaaasasasss INTRODUCTION Dental Caries which is considered as a major public exposed to modest maternal challenge have health problem, is caused by interaction between host, approximately 50% bacterial colonization and children diet, environmental factors and time.1 Numerous studies exposed to high maternal levels have approximately 90% have been conducted on determining the etiology of colonization.

  • Propylene Glycol
    PROPYLENE GLYCOL Your patch test result indicates that you have a contact allergy to propylene glycol. This contact allergy may cause your skin to react when it is exposed to this substance although it may take several days for the symptoms to appear. Typical symptoms include redness, swelling, itching, and fluid-filled blisters. Where is propylene glycol found? Propylene glycol is used as a softening agent, preservative, humectants, and solvent in cosmetics, fragrances, topical medications, soaps and cleansers, hair care products, and deodorants. Propylene glycol is also found in oral treatments as well as many foods. It is also added during the manufacture of many industrial fluids, such as solvents, thinners, antifreeze, other de-icing fluids, desiccants, brake fluids, and polyester resins. How can you avoid contact with propylene glycol? Avoid products that list any of the following names in the ingredients: • Propylene glycol • 1,2-Dihydroxypropane • CASRN: 57-55-6 • Methylethyl glycol • 1,2-Propanediol • 2-Hydroxypropanol • Isopropylene glycol What are some products that may contain propylene glycol?
