Abstract

Introduction: Oral infections are most frequently caused by three oral microorganisms: .

Objectives: To evaluate antimicrobial potential of 10% ginger extract (GE) and apple vinegar against , , and .

Materials And Method: The GE and apple cider vinegar (ACV) were tested for microbiological evaluation to identify the inhibitory zone using the agar disk diffusion test against , , and .

Result: The 10% ethanolic GE and ACV showed a maximum zone of inhibition zone against , , and . The intragroup comparison was insignificant.

Conclusion: Apple vinegar and 10% ethanolic GE were shown to have good antimicrobial properties against all three tested pathogens.
