Oral diseases, including dental caries, periodontal disease, and tooth loss, affect the majority of the population and can affect a person's overall health. Nature plays an important role as a source of new antibacterial and antifungal substances that can be used in the prevention of caries and fungal infection. Many antibacterial agents have been developed against dental caries. However, they lack the qualities of an ideal agent. Thus presently, antibacterial activity of herbal agents is being extensively studied. Plants have been used for centuries to improve dental health and to promote oral hygiene. Antibacterial and antifungal effects of some plants have been proved as well. This review discusses chemical composition and usage of these plants as well as their influence on oral health with pearls and pitfulls

DİŞ HEKİMLİĞİNDE KULLANILAN BAZI BİTKİLERİN ANTİBAKTERİYAL VE ANTİFUNGAL ETKİLERİ

Öz

ÖZET 

Diş çürükleri, periodontal hastalıklar ve diş kaybı toplumun büyük bir kısmını etkileyen ağızda görülen hastalıklardır. Diş çürüğünü ve mantar enfeksiyonlarını engellemede tabiatta var olan kaynaklar önemli rol oynamaktadır. Bu derlemede diş hekimliğinde kulla- nılan bazı bitkilerin antibakteriyal ve antifungal etkilerini değerlendirilmiştir.

Diş çürüklerine karşı birçok antibakteriyal ürün gelişti- rilmesine rağmen henüz hala ideal bir antibakteriyal ajan mevcut değildir. Bu durum bitkilerin antibakteriyal etkisinin araştırılması için bir fikir oluşturmuştur. Bitki- ler uzun yıllardan beri diş sağlığını korumak ve artır- mak için kullanılmaktadır. Bu bağlamda antibakteriyal ve antifungal etkileri kanıtlanmış bitkiler bulunmak- tadır.

Bu derlemede bitkilerin ağız sağlığı üzerindeki olumlu ve olumsuz etkilerinin yanısıra kimyasal yapıları ve kullanımları tartışılmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Diş çürüğü, antibakteriyal etki, antifungal etki, misvak, mamey ağacı, çay ağacı yağı, neem ağacı
