RESUMO

The aim of the present study was to analyze the endodontic microbiota of teeth with pulp necrosis and spontaneous pain; detect the presence of enterococci, fungi and enteric bacteria in saliva and root canals; and, to determine, in vitro the antimicrobial sensitivity of anaerobic isolates by E-test and _-lactamasis production. Thirty samples were collected from both root canals and saliva, and processed using strict microbiological techniques. Statistical analysis was performed with Persons X2 test or Fisher s Exact Test, as appropriated. A hundred and fifty nine strains were isolated from the root canals, with a predominance of strict anaerobes and gram-positive bacteria, and Peptostreptococcus micros was the most frequently isolated species. Fungi, enterobacteria and enterococci were seldom found in root canals. There were no Enterobacteria in both places. Positive associations between specific species and signs and symptoms of endodontic origin were present. Penicillin G, amoxicillin, amoxicilin + clavulanate, and metronidazole were effective against the tested microorganisms. All strains of P. buccae, P. intermedia/nigrescens, P. disiens, P. micros e P. propionicum were susceptible to amoxicillin and metronidazole. About 12% to 33% of the isolates were able to produce beta-lactamasis. The present results suggested that the primary endodontic infection in symptomatic teeth was mixed, and was predominantly formed by strict anaerobic strains. Fungi, enterococci and enterobacteria were not significantly found in root canals and saliva. The tested antibiotics were effective, however resistance was detected in several clinical isolates.
