Comparison of the Antibacterial Effects of Calcium Hydroxide Medicament,Chlorhexidine Gluconate Gel And a Blend Of The Two Materials on Enterococcus faecalis

The aim of this study is the comparison of antibacterial effects of calcium hydroxide medicament and chlorhexidine gluconate gel on Enterococcus faecalis. The study is composed of three experimental groups. Antibacterial effects of group 1, calcium hydroxide medicament (Calcicure); group 2, %1 chlorexidine gluconate gel (Corsodyl) and group 3, combination of calcium hydroxide medicament plus chlorexidine gluconate gel equal ratio were examined with agar diffusion method on the 1st, 2nd and 7th days. Inventions are evaluationed as statistical with ANOVA and multiple comparisons tests. In the end of our study for the three time period the antibacterial effect of chlorexidine gluconate gel was more than calcium hydroxide medicament and the combination of calcium hydroxide medicament plus chlorexidine gluconate gel equal ratio (P0,05), however on the 7th day it is found an important statistical difference (P
