Abstract

Preliminary study on antimicrobial efficiency of some common chemical substances with a disinfecting character on impression materials used in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation

Highlights

  • The present study, only a preliminary one, attempts, on the basis of simple clinical and microbiological experiments, to determine the antimicrobial effectiveness of some chemical disinfectant substances on standard impression materials, commonly used in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, in classical dental prosthetics, as well as in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics

  • From our point of view, the decontamination of dental impressions in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, and in classical dental prosthetics, as well as in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics should become mandatory in the technological flow of realization of implant-retained prosthetic restorations of any kind, and of fixed and mobile classical prosthetic restorations, as well as of orthodontic appliances

  • Disinfectant Product no. 2 showed the lowest inhibition area, followed by Disinfectant Product no. 4

Introduction

The present study, only a preliminary one, attempts, on the basis of simple clinical and microbiological experiments, to determine the antimicrobial effectiveness of some chemical disinfectant substances on standard impression materials, commonly used in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, in classical dental prosthetics, as well as in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics. From our point of view, the decontamination of dental impressions in implant-prosthetic rehabilitation, and in classical dental prosthetics, as well as in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics should become mandatory in the technological flow of realization of implant-retained prosthetic restorations of any kind, and of fixed and mobile classical prosthetic restorations, as well as of orthodontic appliances This procedure is considered by many practitioners in Romania (dental practitioners, dental nurses and dental technicians) as a slowing down and even useless procedure that unnecessarily complicates these technological flows [1,2,3,4,5,6].
