Overview
Keywords - Dental Aerosol, Oregano Oil, Antibacterial Activity, Oral Bacteria Introduction Dentists, dental hygienists, and oral health care workers practice in a highly contaminated environment, the human mouth where they are exposed to a variety of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa from many sources1. [...]the present study is aimed to determine the antibacterial effect of the oregano oil on dental aerosol bacteria around the dental unit during the dental procedure. Essential oils and DMSO ratio (150 pi) 100% - 150 pi: 0 (Full strength) 50% - 75pl: 75pl (oregano oil: DMSO) 25% - 50pl: lOOpl (oregano oil: DMSO) ultrasonic scalers, and air polishing units are known to produce the aerosols during the procedures.30 Hence in this study, dental aerosols produced during the dental procedures carried out in Clinic I and Clinic II were considered, it is stated that the dimensions of the particle may vary from 0.001pm to quite 100 pm. the smallest particle size (ranging between 0.5 pm and 10 pm) has the most effective potential to penetrate the respiratory passages and therefore the lungs, possessing the ability to transmit the disease, periodontal disease, being multi-factorial, the oral cavity harbors innumerable bacteria and viruses from the tract, saliva, and bacterial plaque. According to a study done by Yadav, et al in 2015, Aerosols may accommodate microorganisms like multi-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, influenza, legionnaire's disease, pneumonia, mumps, chickenpox, cytomegalovirus infection, hepatitis B and C viral infection, herpes simplex vims types 1 and 2 infections, human immunodeficiency virus, etc.32 Usually, diseases like the cold, sinusitis, and pharyngitis of the upper respiratory tract and Pneumonia, Tuberculosis, SARS, and Avian influenza of the lower respiratory tract has been reported with the aerosol contamination, (Ragunath 2016)33 For microbial air contamination, the appropriate CFU counts of 45100-75000CFU/ m2/h in medical wards were given by Fischer et al.34 However, the results
