Abstract

Introduction: Enterococcus faecalis is a major cause of root canal treatment failure due to its resistance to conventional medicaments such as calcium hydroxide. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial effect of red betel leaf (Piper crocatum) extract at concentrations of 10% and 15% against E. faecalis. Materials and Methods: A true experimental design with a post-test only control group was used. Samples were divided into four groups: Piper crocatum 10% and 15%, positive control (10% Ca(OH)₂), and negative control (sterile aquadest). Antibacterial activity was tested using the agar diffusion method, measuring inhibition zone diameters. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test. Results and Discussions: The results showed that both concentrations inhibited E. faecalis, with 15% producing greater inhibition than 10%, while Ca(OH)₂ remained the most effective. Conclusion: It can be concluded that Piper crocatum extract over 10% percentage has potential as a herbal alternative for intracanal medicament in root canal therapy.

Abstract

Red ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum) is a plant that is often used as a research material and contains antibacterial compounds such as flavo-noids, oleoresin, essential oils and tannins. This study explored the use of RG extract to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans through laboratory experi-ments using a post-test only control group design, with 24 samples consisting of a positive control group treated with vancomycin antibiotics, and groups trea-ted with RG extract at concentrations of 10%, 30% and 60%. The inhibition power at a concentration of 10% was 6.5 mm, 30% was 6.83 mm, and 60% was 8.83 mm. The higher the extract concentration, the greater the amount of antibacterial compounds released. It was concluded that the inhibition power of RG extract concentrations of 10%, 30% and 60% could inhibit the growth of S.mutans; the 60% concentration was the most effective.
