Clinical Trial Summary

Mouthrinses have been in used for centuries as breath fresheners, medicaments, and antiseptics. Recently, propolis has caught the eyes of dentists worldwide and researches are being carried out to infuse the usage of propolis in the dental health care treatments. There is belief that propolis may have a role as a tooth decay prophylaxis and help heal oral ulcers. Propolis is used as mouthwash, toothpaste, oral gel, and throat lozenges because of its proclaimed antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Propolis has shown activity against common periodontal microorganisms, such as Candida species and the Streptococci mutans in vitro studies. Till date, no study has evaluated the clinical and microbiological effects of Malaysian Propolis as a mouthwash.
