Dental plaque is believed to be a major etiologic factor in the development of dental caries, gingivitis and periodontitis. Large numbers and various types of bacteria exist in the oral cavity, therefore chemical removal of oral bacteria is useful to improve oral hygiene and gingival health. In this study, we examined the bactericidal effects of antiseptic mouth rinses against oral microorganisms. Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) has been reported to be successful in combating a variety of common infectious agents. We evaluated the bactericidal effects of GSE against oral microorganisms and compared their activities with LISTERINE, GUM, Isodine and HALIZON. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of these mouth rinses was determined for cultivated oral bacteria using two-fold dilutions. We also examined the bactericidal efficacy of these mouth rinses against oral bacteria in saliva. We found that these mouth rinses decreased the viable bacterial counts in saliva for 90 minutes, and the MIC ranged from 1/2 to 1/32,768. 

The results of this study suggest that GSE has bactericidal efficacy against both gram-negative and gram-positive oral pathogenic bacteria. Moreover, bactericidal effects against bacteria in saliva indicated that GSE is useful in the oral cavity as antiseptic mouth rinse.
