title: [Assessment of the preparation Carietest, Septodont].
abstract: The usefulness for staining of plaques on teeth was assessed using the preparation Carietest manufactured by Septodont. Carietest is a ready for use green fluid prepared, according to the producer, of blue sulphane and yellow tartrazin. It is applied painting the teeth in any area in which poor oral hygiene is suspected. The preparation was tried out using as reference standard Plakk-festö erythrosin tablets of Hungarian origin. The studied group comprised 25 patients. The range of staining of dental plaques by both preparations was determined using a simplified fuchsin index. The study showed a good suitability of the preparation Carietest for staining of bacterial dental plaques.
