Abstract

Limonene is the main component of citrus essential oils, and can reach a concentration of up to 96%. Popularly known for its potential therapeutic effects on the body, among these we point out its broad antimicrobial activity against various types of pathogens. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to address the antimicrobial and antifungal properties of limonene compared to microorganisms of interest in dentistry, based on a bibliometric study and literature review. The following databases were analyzed: PubMed, Google Scholar, SciELO and Science Direct, from which ten articles published between 2011-2021 were selected. Most of results indicate a satisfactory antimicrobial potential, besides providing important data and perspectives regarding the indication and clinical use, in addition to innovative therapeutic modalities for diseases that affect the oral cavity, such as tooth decay, periodontal disease and candidosis.

柠檬烯抗菌活性研究综述

柠檬烯是柑橘精油的主要成分，其浓度可达96%。众所周知，它对身体有潜在的治疗作用，其中我们指出它对各种类型的病原体具有广泛的抗菌活性。因此，本研究的目的是在文献计量学研究和文献综述的基础上，将柠檬烯的抗菌和抗真菌特性与牙科中感兴趣的微生物进行比较。分析PubMed、b谷歌Scholar、SciELO和Science Direct数据库，从中选取2011-2021年间发表的10篇文章。大多数结果表明，除了提供关于适应症和临床使用的重要数据和观点外，还提供了对影响口腔疾病(如蛀牙、牙周病和念珠菌病)的创新治疗方式，抗菌潜力令人满意。
