Abstract : Dental plaque is the major causative factor of oral diseases, including dental caries and inflammatory periodontal diseases. Moreover, all hospitalized patients are at risk of acquiring an infection from their treatment or surgery. Recently, electrolyzed water has been widely used for sterilization of dental appliance and instruments because of its superior bactericidal activity with the least biological and environmental side effects. In this study, we examined the bactericidal effects of electrolyzed neutral water on nine kinds of bacteria including oral microorganisms and salivary bacteria. Furthermore, the corrosive action of the water to metal and durability of residual chlorine were evaluated. Nine species of bacteria used in this study were as follows: S. mutans, L. casei, A. viscosus, P. gingivalis, F. nucleatum, P. nigrescens, S. aureus, C. albicans and E. coli. All bacteria were completely killed by a 60-second exposure to electrolyzed neutral water of 5 ppm residual chlorine concentration. Gram-negative oral bacteria were more susceptible to the water than Gram-positive organisms. The MIC of residual chlorine against nine species ranged from 2.5 ppm to 5.0 ppm after 60-second exposure. On the other hand, the MIC for salivary bacteria was 20 ppm. In order to examine the bactericidal mechanism of the water, S. mutans or P. gingivalis were mixed with electrolyzed neutral water for 30 minutes at room temperature and morphological changes of the bacterium were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Most bacterial cell walls were destroyed and the cytoplasm was spilt out of the cells. Two types of metals were immersed into the water for 7 days, but no significant corrosiveness was observed. Moreover, the effective concentration of residual chlorine was maintained more than two weeks at room temperature. These results suggest that electrolyzed neutral water is useful to sterile dental equipments and to prevent catching an infection during the treatments.
