The aim of this project was to evaluate the inhibitory capacity of a mouthwash based on latex from Croton lechleri (dragon’s blood) on the proliferation of Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175 "in vitro." For the microbiological study, 100% dragon’s blood latex was used, and the agar diffusion method was employed. Sixteen Petri dishes with BHI agar were prepared, each containing a 6 mm diameter well saturated with 0.12% chlorhexidine and dragon’s blood latex. The samples were incubated at 37°C, and inhibition zones were recorded after 24 and 72 hours. Chlorhexidine at 0.12% was used as the positive control for Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175, and distilled water served as the negative control. Data were analyzed using SPSS, and the T-Student statistical test was applied. The conclusion was that the mouthwash based on Croton lechleri latex (dragon’s blood) exhibits antimicrobial activity "in vitro" against Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175 at 24 and 72 hours, with chlorhexidine at 0.12% showing superior antibacterial activity.

Objective: To evaluate the alveolar healing efficacy post-extraction of Croton lechleri compared to Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel in Oryctolagus cuniculus. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 30 rabbits prepared for experimentation, divided into two groups (A and B): 15 rabbits were treated with Croton lechleri tincture applied to the sockets of their lower incisors, and another 15 rabbits received Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel in the same sockets (Group B). The rabbits were sacrificed by decapitation under deep anesthesia in groups of 10 on days 3, 7, and 21 post-surgery. Five alveoli per treatment were sectioned sagittally and evaluated under a microscope. Results: At 3 days, Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel exhibited significantly greater inflammatory infiltration. At 7 days, Croton lechleri tincture promoted greater inflammatory infiltration. At 21 days, Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel significantly stimulated the presence of osteoclasts (p=0.035) and osteoblasts (p=0.004), which was similar to Croton lechleri regarding osteoblasts (p=0.004). Conclusion: Croton lechleri showed similar healing efficacy to Perio·Aid® bioadhesive gel at 3, 7, and 21 days post-extraction, and both products accelerated the healing process.
