Introduction: Prosthetic complete dentures are commonly used by elderly people. These dentures on exposure to the oral environment forms biofilms. This harbours microorganisms and cause bacterial and fungal infections in the oral mucosa. Also cleansing the denture itself is a task for the elderly people. Any solution which clears the adhered component would help them better. Hence effervecense is a better choice to remove the biofilm.
Aim: To prepare effervescent denture cleansing granules with clove oil and to evaluate its antibacterial activity.
Materials and Method: The effervescent granules were prepared from citric acid, tartaric acid and sodium bicarbonate in a ratio of 1: 2: 3. Different concentrations of essential oil were mixed with sodium bicarbonate initially. The citric acid crystals were initially powered and then mixed with tartaric acid. Both these powders were mixed using geometric dilution, further sieved and packed in air tight glass container. The prepared clove effervescent denture cleansing granules were tested against Streptococcus mutants and Enterococcus faecalis after dissolving in sterile water. The fresh bacterial suspension was dispersed on the surface of nutrient agar plates. Different concentration of clove effervescent denture cleansing solution (50, 100 and 150 L) was incorporated into the wells and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 h. Zone of inhibition was recorded in each plate. Similarly the antifungal activity was evaluated using rose Bengal agar medium after inoculating with Candida albicans and incorporating the prepared effervescent denture cleansing solution.
Result: Clove mediated effervescent granules showed a dose dependent antibacterial activity against the tested microorganism with a maximum effect on Streptococcus mutans followed by Enterococcus faecalis. The different concentration showed similar inhibition in case of C. albicans.
Conclusion: The prepared clove mediated effervescent denture cleansing granules were found to be effective against S.mutans, E. faecalis and C. albicans . Hence it may be used for routine cleansing of denture to protect the denture users from infections such as denture stomatitis.

Aim: To evaluate the antibacterial activity of dill oil mediated effervescent denture cleansing granules.
Materials and Method: The components such as citric acid, tartaric acid and sodium bicarbonate were taken in a ratio of 1: 2: 3 to prepare the effervescent granules by dry method. The citric acid crystals were powered first and then mixed with tartaric acid. Dill oil was mixed with sodium bicarbonate initially. Both the powders were mixed using geometric dilution, further sieved and packed in air tight containers. Different concentrations of the prepared dill effervescent denture cleansing solution was tested against Streptococcus mutants and Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans in their respective medium and the zone of inhibition was was recorded after incubation over night at 37° c.
Result: The effervescent granules prepared with dill oil showed good antibacterial activity against the tested microorganism such as Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans.
Conclusion: The effervescent denture cleansing granules prepared with dill oil were found to be effective against S. mutans, E. faecalis and Candida albicans. Hence it may be used for routine cleansing of denture to protect the denture users from infections such as denture stomatitis.

Aim: To prepare and evaluate the antibacterial activity of Coconut oil-mediated effervescent denture cleansing granules.
Materials and Method: The components such as citric acid, tartaric acid and sodium bicarbonate were taken in a ratio of 1: 2: 3 to prepare the effervescent granules by dry method. The citric acid crystals were powered first and then mixed with tartaric acid. Coconut oil was mixed with sodium bicarbonate initially. Both the powders were mixed using geometric dilution, further sieved and packed in air tight containers. Different concentrations of the prepared Coconut oil effervescent denture cleansing solution was tested against Streptococcus mutans and Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans in their respective medium and the zone of inhibition was recorded after incubation overnight at 37° c.
Result: The effervescent granules prepared using Coconut oil showed good dose dependent antimicrobial activity against the tested microorganism such as Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans.
Conclusion: The effervescent denture cleansing granules prepared with Coconut oil were found to be active against S. mutans, E. faecalis and Candida albicans at higher concentrations. Hence it may be used for routine cleansing of denture to protect the denture users from infections such as denture stomatitis.
