Background and Objectives: Mouthwashes are commonly used to reduce the harmful effects of oral bacteria. The purpose of the present study was to compare the antibacterial effects of Matrica and Chlorhexidine 0.2% mouthwashes on common microorganisms in periodontal diseases.
Materials and Methods: This is a laboratory study in which disc diffusion method was used. The diameter of the inhibition zone caused by the antimicrobial effect of Matrica and Chlorhexidine 0.2% was measured in millimeter. Data were analyzed using independent t-test and one-way ANOVA.
Results: The highest mean diameter of the inhibition zone caused by Matrica was 14.85±0.42 and in case of Chlorhexidine 0.2%, 25.54±0.49. Chlorhexidine showed more inhibitory effect compared to Matrica (p˂ 0.001).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that chlorhexidine compared to Matrica has a more antibacterial effect on bacteria that are effective in periodontal diseases. Matrica mouthwash has a more inhibitory effect on the Actinomyces viscosus compared with the other two bacteria.
