      <dc:description>This study investigated the antimicrobial effects of a mouthwash containing propolis and&#xd;
the effect of a propolis paste formulation on dental healing after teeth extraction in patients with&#xd;
periodontal disease. In the mouthwash experience, the population comprised 40 patients, which&#xd;
were divided as follows: the control mouthwash, 0.2% chlorhexidine (v/v) mouthwash, 2% (w/v)&#xd;
propolis mouthwash, and propolis + chlorhexidine mouthwash. The study of the propolis paste&#xd;
comprised a population of 60 patients with periodontal disease, and a total of 120 symmetric tooth&#xd;
extractions were performed. Propolis showed antimicrobial activity by itself, and especially with the&#xd;
chlorhexidine association. Three days after surgery in the teeth treated with control paste, only 13.4%&#xd;
had completely healed; however, with propolis paste, in 90% of the periodontal sockets, healing&#xd;
was complete. In addition, a reduction in Streptococci mutans and Lactobacilli cfu was observed&#xd;
with propolis, and especially with the association of chlorhexidine + propolis. Propolis mouthwash&#xd;
reduced bacterial proliferation, especially in association with chlorhexidine. Propolis paste is a viable&#xd;
alternative for socket healing after dental extraction. The knowledge gained from these findings will&#xd;
provide a foundation for similar propolis therapies in order to improve the healing process after&#xd;
dental surgery.</dc:description>
