Abstract

Abstract: Endodontics is the a type of treatment that aims to keep the teeth in function. Disinfection of the root canal is very important in endodontic treatment. Root canal disinfection can be done by giving the material a root canal medication. One of the bacteria that causes the failure of root canal treatment is the bacterium Enterococcus faecalis. The lemongrass essential oil contains geranial, neral, and mirsen which have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative. This study aimed to determine whether the lemongrass essential oil was effective against bacteria Enterococcus faecalis. This was an experimental study using post test only control group design with agar plate diffusion method. Samples consisted of a group of lemongrass essential oil with several concentrations: 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, each consisted of 4 samples. The 16 control groups consisted of positive and negative groups. Diameter of inhibition was determined by the ability to inhibit Enterococcus faecalis cultured on MHA agar. The results showed that the average inhibitory diameter of 25% lemongrass essential oil was 2.60 mm; of 50% was 4.73 mm; of 75% was 4.50 mm; and of 100% was 5.34 mm. Conclusion: Lemongrass essential oil showed an antibacterial effect to inhibit the growth of bacteria Enterococcus faecalis.Keywords: enterococcus faecalis, lemongrass oil, antibacerialAbstrak: Endodontik merupakan salah satu jenis perawatan yang bertujuan mempertahankan gigi agar tetap dapat berfungsi.
