Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the staining ratio on the enamel surface following the use of chlorhexidine mouthwash and the chlorhexidine varnish application. Labial and lingual surfaces of maxillary and mandibular incisors of adults were selected to evaluate the staining ratio. The control group was consisted of 8 individuals, the experimental group 1 and 2 were consisted of 50 each. Prophylaxis with pumice was performed to remove the stain already established on the enamel surface of all groups. The group 1 was asked to use chlorhexidine mouthwash(Hexadent, chlorhexidine gluconate 1ml/100ml) for a minute twice a day. The chlorhexidine varnish®(Chlorzoin®, consisted of solution 1(10% chlorhexidine acetate) and solution 2(polyurethane sealant)) was applied on the enamel surfaces of the group 2. After 4 weeks of experiment, intraoral photogragh of tooth surfaces were taken in order to record the stained area on the enamel of the control and the experimental groups. Outline of teeth and the stained area in the photographs was traced on the OHP film. Scanner and computer processor were used to calculate stained surface ratio.
Key Words: chlorhexidine, mouthwash, tooth stain, varnish
