Antimicrobial Activity of Six Plant Extracts from the Brazilian Savanna on Periodontal Pathogens

The extracts of plants from Brazilian savanna are currently used in popular medicine. This study evaluated the inhibitory activity of the alcoholic and aqueous extracts from savanna plants on periodontal bacteria. The minimal inhibitory concentrations were evaluated by the agar dilution method, usin...
