Influence of acrylic resin denture base soaking length in siwak extract solution (Salvadora persica) on the growth of candida albicans

Abstract

Objective: To know the influence of immersion length of denture base of acrylic resin in Siwak solution ( Salvadora persica ) on Candida albicans growth. Material and Methods: This type of research is laboratory experimental. The Siwak plant ( Salvadora persica ) was extracted and 1% solution was formed. The media used were Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (SDB) and Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA). Candida albicans was cultured as 1 dose in 100 ml of SDB medium, and then incubated at shaker rotation for 1x24 hours. The concentration chosen to test the effectiveness of siwak extract solution was 1%, 10%, 15% and 25%. Data were presented as mean ± SD. Results: Zone of 6 hours Siwak extract immersion inhibitor by 43.47 ± 0.35, 8 hours to know the influence of immersion length of denture base of acrylic resin in Siwak solution ( Salvadora persica ) on candida albicans growth 44.42 ± 0.02, 10 hours of 52.79 ± 0.03. Conclusion: There is a difference of immersion length of denture base of acrylic resin on Candida albicans growth in Siwak extract solution ( Salvadora persica ).
