    The objective of this study was to evaluate the inhibitory effect of the essential oil of muña mixed with calcium hydroxide, compared to four solutions, against Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212). The agar well diffusion method with 6 mm diameter wells was applied to examine the substances, including saline solution (negative control). The inhibition zones were measured at 24 and 72 hours, with the following results: 16.17 mm and 15.36 mm for the essential oil of muña mixed with calcium hydroxide; 9.18 mm and 8.68 mm for the essential oil of muña; 19.89 mm and 17.09 mm for the 3Mix-MP paste; 21.40 mm (for both time periods) for 2% chlorhexidine gluconate; and 17.89 mm and 15.60 mm for the mixture of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate with calcium hydroxide. The study concluded that the inhibitory effect of the essential oil of muña mixed with calcium hydroxide was lower than that of the 3Mix-MP paste, the 2% chlorhexidine gluconate, and the mixture of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate with calcium hydroxide, but greater than that of the essential oil of muña.

    Throughout history, periodontal disease has been present, with multiple treatments using natural derivatives to address this condition. Therefore, the objective of this in vitro study was to determine the efficacy of Minthostachys mollis (muña) essential oil and 0.12% Chlorhexidine in inhibiting the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis. The sample consisted of 40 Petri dishes inoculated with Porphyromonas gingivalis strains, and the agar diffusion method using paper discs was employed. The discs were impregnated with 20 µl of 50% and 100% Minthostachys mollis (muña) essential oil, 0.12% Chlorhexidine, and distilled water. The Petri dishes, inoculated and medicated, were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C and were removed only to measure the inhibition halos at 24 and 48 hours. The data were processed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Conclusion: The essential oil of Minthostachys mollis (muña) at 50% and 100% were less effective than 0.12% Chlorhexidine in inhibiting the growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis at both 24 and 48 hours.
