Efficacy of Ozone, UV Radiation, Herbal and Glutaraldehyde Method for Sterilisation of Elastomeric Impression Materials for Orthodontic and Prosthodontic procedures
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
Objectives:
The objectives of the current study was to evaluate the disinfection efficacy of ozone, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, herbal and glutaraldehyde method for sterilization of elastomeric impression materials
Materials and Methods:
Disinfection of elastomeric impression material was performed with each of the disinfection methods: ozone, UV radiation, herbal, and glutaraldehyde. Later microbiological analysis was performed and the colony-forming units were evaluated and compared.
Results:
The highest disinfection efficacy was found with glutaraldehyde, followed by ozone and UV radiation, and the least with neem herbal rinse. Intergroup comparison was highly significant
Conclusion:
Dry gaseous ozone and UV radiation can be used effectively for the disinfection of impressions.
