Abstract:

Flavonoids are natural organic compounds widely existed in plants. In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of research on the effects and processes of flavonoids on oral microbes such as Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Candida albicans, due to their strong antibacterial activity. It demonstrates that a variety of flavonoids have an inhibitory impact on oral pathogenic bacteria and may be useful in the prevention and treatment of oral illnesses and oral health care. This review summarized the effects and mechanism of flavonoids on oral microorga-nisms and evaluated the application value of flavonoids in prevention and treatment of oral diseases and oral health care.

Key words: flavonoids, oral microorganism, antimicrobial effect, oral disease prevention
