Abstract

Lots of people use mouthwashes to combat oral microorganisms. Current research has recommended that the throat and salivary glands are significant places of viral replication and spread during initial COVID-19 illness, implying that mouthwashes should be employed. The closeness to the patient throughout oral and dental procedures, heavy production of aerosol, and existence of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva indicate the oral cavity is a likely means of spread. To minimize the quantity of pathogenic viruses in aerosols as well as droplets throughout dental procedures, mouthwashes such as chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX), povidone-iodine (PVP-I), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) have been advocated. There is very little clinical data that mouthwashes help avert the SARS-CoV-2. This article intends to deliver a thorough review of the latest suggestions on the application of oral rinses against the COVID-19 disease outbreak and to outline the pros and cons of the most commonly used mouthwashes during routine dental procedures.

Diş hekimliğinde COVID-19'a karşı geleneksel ağız gargaralarının potansiyel rolü

Abstract

Birçok insan ağızdaki mikroorganizmalarla savaşmak için gargara kullanır. Mevcut araştırmalar, boğaz ve tükürük bezlerinin viral replikasyonun önemli yerleri olduğunu ve ilk COVID-19 hastalığı sırasında yayıldığını, gargaraların kullanılması gerektiğini ima etti. Ağız ve diş prosedürleri sırasında hastaya yakınlık, ağır aerosol üretimi ve tükürükte SARS-CoV-2'nin varlığı, ağız boşluğunun olası bir yayılma yolu olduğunu gösterir. Dental prosedürler boyunca aerosollerdeki ve damlacıklardaki patojenik virüslerin miktarını en aza indirmek için klorheksidin glukonat (CHX), povidon-iyodin (PVP-I) ve hidrojen peroksit (H2O2) gibi gargaralar savunulmaktadır. Gargaraların SARS-CoV-2'yi önlemeye yardımcı olduğuna dair çok az klinik veri var. Bu makale, COVID-19 hastalığı salgınına karşı ağız gargaralarının uygulanmasına ilişkin en son önerilerin kapsamlı bir incelemesini sunmayı ve rutin ağız ve diş prosedürleri sırasında en sık kullanılan gargaraların artılarını ve eksilerini özetlemeyi amaçlamaktadır.
