DefinitionAn antiseptic is a substance which
inhibits the growth and development of microorganisms. It:
Is a chemical antimicrobial agent Destroys microorganisms & inhibits
their reproduction or metabolism.
![Page 3: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Functions For practical purposes, antiseptics are
considered as topical agents:1. For application to skin, mucous
membranes, and inanimate objects.2. In periodontology, applied topically or
subgingivally to mucous membranes, wounds, or intact dermal surfaces

What is the difference between Antibiotics and Antiseptics?
Antibiotics acts against bacteria while antiseptics are effective against a wide variety of microorganisms.
Antibiotics kill and stop the growth of bacteria while antiseptics prevent the growth and development of the microorganisms without necessarily killing them.
Antibiotics are used internally as well as externally, but antiseptics most often used externally.

Bis-biguanides The most common Bis-biguanide is Chlorhexidine.
It binds to different surfaces within the mouth including teeth , mucosa, pellicle and saliva.
Chlorhexidine has been formulated in a number of products including, mouth rinses, gels, tablets, varnishes and chewing gum.
![Page 8: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Bis-biguanides Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a broad-spectrum
biocide effective against Gram(+) & bacteria, Gram(-) bacteria and fungi.
Mechanism of action -CHX is a positively-charged molecule that binds to the negatively-charged sites on the cell wall; it destabilizes the cell wall and interferes with osmosis.
The bacterial uptake of the chlorhexidine is very rapid, typically working within 20 seconds. In low concentrations it affects the integrity of the cell wall.

Anti-plaque Activities
The effective blocking of acidic groups of salivary glycoproteins will reduce their adsorption to hydroxyapatite and formation of acquired pellicle.
The ability of bacteria to bind to tooth surfaces may be reduced by adsorption of CHX to the extracellular polysaccharides of their capsules or gylcocalyces.
The CHX may compete with calcium ions for acidic agglutination factors in plaque.
![Page 13: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Quaternary Ammonium Compounds
This is a group of cationic surface active agents that possess the ability to bind with the bacterial cell membrane, that have the ability to affect its permeability with subsequent loss of cell content.
They are bactericidal to both gram positive and gram negative , but are thought to be more effective against gram positive bacteria.

Formulations
Two of the groups Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) usually at 0.05% with and without domiphen bromide and benxethonium chloride at a similar concentration have been used in mouthwahses.
They work by disrupting membrane function, causing leakage of cytoplasmic material and ultimately this leads to collapse of intracellular equilibrium.
![Page 19: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Phenols Phenolic compounds are used as both
antispetics and antibiotics. Triclosan, a bisphenol and nonionic
germicide with low toxicity and broad antibacterial activity spectrum, is available in dentrifices and mouthwashes.

Mechanism of Action The mechanism of action is not clearly
understood. Due to its hydrophobic and lipophilic nature, triclosan adsorbs to the lipid portion of the bacterial cell membrane and in low concentrations interferes with vital transport mechanisms.
Inhibitory effect on primary enzymes (cyclooxygenase and 5-lypoxygenase) in the pathways of arachidonic acid metabolism and this leads to a decreased production of proinflammatroy metabolites such a PGE2 and Leukotriene B4

Formulations Tricolosan in dentrifices Since it does not bind well to oral sites due to its
lack of strong positive charge, formulations have been developed to enhance its ability to bind to plaque and teeth. These include:
1. Combinations with Zinc Citrate to take advantage of potential anti-plaque and anti-calculus properties.
2. Incorporation of triclosan in a copolymer of methoxytheylene and maleic acid to increase its retention time
3. Combinations with pyrophosphates to enhance its calculus reducing properties

Iodophores When used as a component in a rinse with hydrogen
peroxide it can decrease the levels of gingivitis. Can be used as an adjunct to scaling and root planning in
the treatment of periodontitis. Also used as a subgingival irrigation by means of a syringe.

Amine-Alcohols Mode of action- Alcohols denature
proteins by breaking the hydrogen bonds that link oppositely charged hydrogen and oxygen atoms on different parts of the chain-like molecules.
Works best against microorganisms at about 70% concentration, as it is easily absorbed by cells, which allows optimal penetration into the cell.

Detergents Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is one of the
most widely used synthetic detergents in dentrifices.
In general, surface active agents are thought to lower the surface tension and penetrate and loosen surface deposits, emulsify or suspend the debris, which the abrasive in a dentrifice removes from the tooth surface.
Sodium lauryl sulfate is an anionic molecule with a high affinity for protein molecules.
![Page 40: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Detergents cont’d Concentration in dentrifices usually range from
0.5-2.0% It may have an antagonistic effect with CHX.
This is due to an ionic attraction of CHX, a cationic bis-biguinide symmetrical molecule, to SLS, a molecule with an anionic nature and a high affinity for protein molecules.
Recommended time between brushing with a SLS containing dentrifice and a CHX rinsing is 30 mintues, if a reduction in anti-microbial effect is to be avoided.

Basic Plaque FormationThe mechanisms of plaque formation include: Adsorption of proteins and bacteria to form a film
on the tooth surface. The effect of van der Waals and electrostatic
forces between microbial surfaces and the film to create reversible adhesion to the teeth.
Irreversible adhesion due to intermolecular interactions between cell surfaces and the pellicle.
Secondary colonizers attach to primary colonizers by intermolecular interaction.
The cells divide and generate a biofilm.
![Page 43: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Antimicrobials used in periodontal treatment can be divided into two main groups: Agents directed against supragingival
plaque development Agents directed against subgingival
bacteria.
![Page 45: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
SUPRAGINGIVAL PLAQUE CONTROL
Terminology Plaque Inhibitory Effect- reducing plaque to levels
insufficient to prevent the development of gingivitis. Anti-Plaque Effect- one which produces a prolonged
and profound reduction in plaque sufficient to prevent the development of gingivitis.
Anti-Gingivitis- an anti-inflammatory effect on the gingival health not necessarily mediated through an effect on plaque.
Substantivity- the ability of drugs to adsorb on to and bind to soft and hard tissues. It is affected by the concentration of the medicine, the pH and temperature and the length of time of contact of the solution with the oral structures.
![Page 46: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Bisbiguanide Antiseptics – They kill a wide range of microbes by damaging the cell wall.
Chlorhexidine The anti-plaque properties of Chlorhexidine has much
greater effects than other antiseptics of similar or greater antibacterial activity.
Probably due to the adsorption of the dicationic Chlorhexidine molecule on to the oral surfaces and its release at bacteriostatic levels for prolonged periods.
Chlorhexidine is a synthetic antimicrobial agent effective in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, fungi, aerobes and anaerobes.
A study by Noiri et al(2003) investigated the effects of Chlorhexadine and P. Gingivalis in artificial biofilms in an intraoral device.
![Page 47: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Chlorhexidine reduces the adherence of Porphyromonas Gingivalis to epithelial cells by affecting the bacterial outer membrane and was therefore effective in reducing the viability of P. Gingivalis biofilms.
It’s antibacterial action is due to an increase in cellular membrane permeability followed by coagulation of the cytoplasmic macromolecules.
It has been shown to be an effective anti-plaque and anti- gingivitis agent.
When used as an adjunct to normal oral hygiene practices, it is more effective in reducing plaque accumulation on a clean tooth surface than in reducing pre-existing plaque deposits.
Thus, Chlorhexadine mouthwash should be given to patients only after the necessary periodontal treatment has been performed.
Chlorhexidine has high substantivity since it maintains effective concentrations for prolonged periods of time thus suitable for inhibiting plaque formation.
![Page 48: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Quaternary Ammonium Compounds
Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC) Although they have greater initial oral retention and equivalent
antibacterial activity to Chlorhexidine, they are less effective in inhibiting plaque and preventing gingivitis.
This may be due to the rapid desorption of the compounds from the oral mucosa.
It has also been found that the antibacterial properties of these compounds are reduced once adsorbed on to a surface, which may be related to its monocationic nature.
The cationic group of each molecule bind to the receptors on the mucosa producing mucosal retention but because of the monocationic nature of these molecules, there are few unattached sites available for antibacterial function.
A CPC pre-brushing mouthrinse used as an adjunct to mechanical oral hygiene has not been found to have a beneficial effect on plaque accumulation (Moran and Addy 1991).
![Page 49: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Conventional use, according to Jenkins et al (1994), compared plaque inhibitory effect of 0.05% and 0.1% CPC and 0.05% Chlorhexidine and control mouthrinses used twice daily for four days with non-brushing.
The 0.1% CPC had lowest plaque scores and produced limited but statistically significant inhibitory plaque growth but 0.05% CPC and Chlorhexidine had too low a total dose to yield an effect.
The short duration of the study made it impossible to detect anti-plaque effect on gingivitis.
A slow release system with CPC has been tried to increase the retention time of CPC in the mouth. This showed no change on the efficacy of the CPC.
A study by Sheen et al 2001 showed that toothpaste use before and particularly after mouthrinses, significantly reduce tooth staining and plaque inhibitory effects. Thus antiseptics should best be used about 2-3 hours after tooth brushing.
![Page 50: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Phenolic Antiseptics They may be used alone or in combinations, in mouthrinses or
lozenges for a considerable time. When used at higher concentrations relative to other
compounds, they have been shown to reduce plaque accumulation(Lusk1974).
Listerine® has been shown to have moderate plaque inhibitory effects; possibly due to poor oral retention. It has some anti-inflammatory effects which may reduce the severity of gingivitis.
Thus it has been accepted by the American Dental Association to be used as aid in home oral hygiene measures.
A study by Moran 1995 compares the effects of Listerine ® on 4-day plaque regrowth during abstinence from mechanical oral hygiene, from Chlorhexidine and anti- adhesive mouthwashes.
0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthwash was more effective than Listerine ® which in turn was more effective than anti-adhesive mouthwash.
![Page 51: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Pyrimidine-Hextidine
It has some plaque inhibitory activity but this is low in comparison with Chlorhexidine.
It’s substantivity is between 1-3 hours which accounts for the plaque inhibitory effect of Oraldene®.
It can cause oral ulcerations with concentrations more than 0.1%.
Hextidine combined with zinc improves its plaque inhibiting activities by acting synergistically with it.
![Page 52: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Iodophores- Povidone-Iodine
Appears to have no significant anti- plaque activity when used as 1% mouthwash.
The absorption of significant levels of iodine is unsatisfactory for prolonged use within the oral cavity and may cause iodine sensitivity.
![Page 53: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Triclosan A non ionic antiseptic which lacks the staining effect
of cationic antiseptics. Moderate plaque inhibitory effect when used with zinc
as a mouthwash or toothpaste, due to possible synergistic effects.
Triclosan itself has little or no substantivity but oral retention can be increased by combination with copolymers of methoxylene and maleic acid.
May act as an anti-inflammatory agent in mouthrinses and toothpaste. This depends on its ability to penetrate the gingival tissue and the nature of the solvent in the mouthwash formulation.
Shown to reduce gingival inflammation better than mechanical brushing alone(Saxton 1986).
![Page 54: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Oxybenzone A phenolic compound similar to triclosan. Tested in vitro for its ability to inhibit prostaglandin E2
(PGE2) following oxybenzone exposure. Aids in reducing gingivitis.
![Page 55: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Amine Alcohol-Delmopinol
Amine Alcohols like Octapinol Hydrochloride has shown to inhibit plaque accumulation and reduces gingivitis ( Colleart 1992).
Limited substantivity compared to Chlorhexidine and inhibits salivary bacteria for only 30 minutes as compared to several hours for Chlorhexidine(Moran 1992).
It may be plaque inhibitory since it interferes with plaque matrix formation and reduces bacterial adherence. It also inhibits the growth of dextran producing streptococci. Thus producing loosely adherent plaque that is more easily removed upon mechanical brushing.
Thus should be used as pre-brushing mouthwash.

Salifluor An effective anti-plaque agent but the mechanisms
for it being an effective anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory agent is not fully understood.
Further studies need to be done before released for clinical usage.
![Page 57: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Natural Products - Sanguinarine
Contains the chemically reactive iminium ion, which appears to be retained in plaque for hours after its use.
Sanguinarine mouthwashes has significant plaque inhibitory effects but no effect on gingivitis. Toothpastes used without mouthwash, have shown no detectable plaque inhibition or anti-inflammatory effects. This may be due to the other components of the toothpaste binding to the chemically reactive site of the sanguinarine molecule.

Oxygenating Agents Hydrogen peroxide, buffered sodium peroxyborate
and peroxycarbonate in mouthwashes have beneficial effects on acute ulcerative gingivitis, possibly by inhibiting anaerobic bacteria.
There is some retardation of plaque growth and is useful against the development of obligate anearobes in formation of gingivitis and periodontitis.
![Page 59: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
SUBGINGIVAL PLAQUE CONTROL
They are applied locally into the periodontal pocket via slow release agents and are an adjunct to scaling and root planing.
Gingival crevice and periodontal pockets are not reached by chemical agents in mouthwashes or toothpastes, whose main activity occurs with supragingival plaque and not really in treatment of gingivitis and periodontitis.
Recently there has been local drug placement of antibiotics and antiseptics into the periodontal pocket.
![Page 60: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Chlorhexidine Most common antiseptic to be used via pocket
irrigation using 5ml syringe and blunt needle in either a liquid or gel form.
It may be delivered via slow release agents but these are not commercially available.
Comparative studies have shown that Chlorhexidine is not as effective as opposed to tetracycline or metronidazole(Joyston- Bechal 1986) in changing the bacterial microflora and reducing gingivitis.
However, it does not allow for bacterial resistance and may be suitable for repeated use.
Chlorhexidine pocket irrigation is useful as an adjunct to scaling and root planing deep pockets, especially when there is marked inflammation.
![Page 61: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Applications of Antiseptics in Periodontology
Antiseptics, delivered via rinsing and irrigation, have been shown to be effective in controlling gingivitis, but not periodontitis. The agents generally are not retained at the site long enough for their antimicrobial effect to provide a measurable benefit to pocket depth and/or attachment levels. They are best used for short periods of time to efficiency and to minimise side effects.

TOOTH, TONGUE & DENTURE STAINING <10%
Possible causes:1. Degradation of the CHX molecule
to release parachloroaniline2. Catalysis to Maillard reactions3. Protein denaturation with metal
sulfide formation4. Precipitation of anionic dietary
chromogens5. Exacerbated by smoking, heavy
plaque and calculusBy-products bind to the surfaces of tooth, denture & tongue and cause brown pigmentation.
Bis-Biguanides
![Page 67: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Addition of different products such as peroxiborate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone or sodium metabisulfate, ascorbic acid and an anti-discolouration system to CHX in order to reduce brown pigmentations.
2. Limiting the intake of foods and beverages (tea, red wine & coffee) during treatment with CHX especially if it’s just the CHX formulation present in agent.
3. Brushing of teeth with conventional toothpaste just before use of CHX mouth rinse.
4. Clean denture with denture cleanser before use of CHX.5. Removal of stains by scaling and in this regard ultrasonic scaling is the
most effective method.6. Severely restriction of CHX use in patients with visible anterior
composite and glass-ionomer restorations.7. Reduction of the concentration of CHX.8. Use for short periods. No longer than 2 weeks. 9. It is also worth stating that chlorhexidine formulations which donot
stain are ineffective in inhibiting plaque.
![Page 68: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
HYPOGEUSIA <10%1. Reduced ability to taste2. Concerns only salt and bitter,
not sweet and sour.3. Thought to involve blockage of
taste receptors for affected taste modalities.
4. Will last for days after interruption of mouthrinses.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Usually diminishes with continued use.
2. Chlorhexidine concentration in mouthwashes till 0.12% and mucosa exposure not exceeding 60" twice a day, seem the best procedure to protect tastes in clinical practice.
3. Used after meals for better food appreciation.
4. Addition of flavour agents.5. Do not rinse with water
after use to avoid washing away of flavour masking agents.
![Page 69: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
IRRITATION OF MUCOSAL MEMBRANES (<1%)
1. This includes burning, epithelial desquamation, erythema and peeling.
2. Rare
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS1.Burning will ease after continued use.2.Dilution of the mouthwash using 5ml water with 10ml mouthwash, freshly mixed, will often allow continued use of the mouthwash.3.Discontinue use if ulceration and peeling present.
TOOTHACHEPeridex has caused mild to moderate toothache, which often resolved spontaneously and required no further treatment.
![Page 70: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS 1. Includes allergic reactions or
anaphylaxis.2. Persons may experience urticaria,
dyspnea, and anaphylactic shock.3. Very RARE.4. Usually due to accidental ingestion of
the chlorhexidine formulation.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS1. Discontinue use.2. Seek medical attention
immediately.3. Do not give to teens or
children.4. 3-5mls of 1:1000 epinephrine
given to avoid death from AS.
![Page 71: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
PAROTID GLAND SWELLING1. Swelling of the parotid glands
during the use of oral chlorhexidine has been reported.
2. Very RARE
ENHANCED SUPRAGINGIVAL CALCULUS FORMATION (Varied)
1. Thought to be due to precipitation of salivary proteins onto tooth surface, thereby increasing pellicle thickness &/or inorganic salts precipitation on pellicle layer.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Discontinue use.2. Spontaneous resolution has
occurred on discontinuing treatment.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Studies indicate need for biofilm disruption prior to the start of CHX mouthrinses in order to reduce side effects. Is currently debatable.
![Page 72: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
TOOTH STAINING1. All CPC formulations produced tooth
staining and this was worst with the CPC lozenges.
2. Agents are categorized as cationic, which favors their attraction to tooth surfaces and bacterial plaque.
3. Clearance of the Cetylpyridinium chloride is rapid from oral cavity. Appears to last only 3-5 hours due to either loss of activity once adsorbed or rapid desorption. Thus CPC frequency of use must be doubled to 4 times daily to ensure adequate efficacy. However this results in an increase in tooth staining.
Side effects can also include oral ulceration and a mild burning sensation of the tongue. Quaternary ammonium compounds may also have a lingering bitter taste.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS1. Use of mouthrinses with
combination formulations of CHX (0.05, 0.12%) and CPC (0.05%) have shown reduced staining and other side effects.
2. Brushing of teeth with conventional toothpaste just before use of CPC mouth rinse.
3. Clean denture with denture cleanser before use of CPC.
4. Removal of stains by scaling and in this regard ultrasonic scaling is the most effective method.
5. Other side effects are mild and transitory.
6. Flavouring agents added to mask bitterness.
QUATERNARY AMMONIUM COMPOUNDS
![Page 73: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Triclosan is generally non-toxic to humans. However the FDA had stated evidence from studies which show that triclosan may cause photoallergic contact dermatitis (PACD), which occurs when the part of the skin exposed to triclosan is also exposed to sunlight.
Concern that widespread triclosan use is leading to antimicrobial resistance.
The disadvantage of Listerine is its high alcohol conc. (21.6-26.9%) which, may exacerbate xerostomia. Side effects also include transient tingling/burning sensation and bitter taste.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Side effects are of Listerine are transient and usually disappear quickly after use.
2. Ensure proper removal of triclosan containing dentrifices from skin surfaces that may be exposed to sun.
3. Discontinue use.
Phenolics & Essential Oils
![Page 74: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Povidone-iodine may give rise to allergic reactions, including itching, burning, and reddening and blistering in the area of application, so a patient's history of allergy to iodine or shellfish must be evaluated. Prolonged iodide intake can inhibit thyroid hormone synthesis and cause goiter, myxedema, or hyperthyroidism.
Transient hyperthyroidism
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Povidone-iodine should not be used in patients with
thyroid dysfunction; pregnant woman, infants, or
in routine patient self-care as it may lead to iodine
induced hypothyroidism.
Iodophores
Pyrimidines: Hexetidine Side effects are usually mild. Very rare hypersensitive rxns; very rare, transient changes in taste; erosive effects on enamel; staining of tooth & composite restorations; erythema, slight epithelial desquamation and burning. Concentrations greater than 0.1% will cause oral ulceration.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS1. Discontinue use if any of these side effects occur.
![Page 75: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Use of 0.2% delmopinol hydrochloride includes tooth & tongue staining, taste disturbance, transitory numbness of the tongue and rarely mucosal soreness and erosion.
Octapinol has toxic effects. No longer on market.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS
1. Discontinue use.2. Side effects lessen with
continued use.
Amine Alcohols
Salifluor Sanguinarine: No effects
known. Mechanism behind antimicrobial effects are not yet properly understood and as such further studies should be carried on salifluor to determine possible side effects.
Natural Products
![Page 76: Final Antiseptics Powerpoint](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/563db8de550346aa9a97b404/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Frequent rinsing with 0.2% sodium hypochlorite may produce a brown-black extrinsic discoloration of the teeth.
Irritation of mucous membranes at high concentrations.
MINIMIZATION OF EFFECTS1. Patients are also advised to rinse
orally with 0.2% sodium hypochlorite for 30 seconds, 2 or 3 times per week. This is equivalent to 8 mL (2 reduced teaspoonfuls) of 6% household bleach in 250 mL (a full glass) of water.
2. If irritation occurs, reduce the concentration or discontinue use.
Chlorine Compounds
Oxygenating Agents Chronic use of hydrogen peroxide causes serious side effects such as carcinogenesis, tissue damage, hyperkeratosis, oral ulceration and hyperplasia. To minimize effects use for short periods or discontinue use.
