Povidone-iodine is a complex of the potent bactericidal agent iodine and the carrier molecule povidone. It is the most common iodophore, releasing iodine slowly and is effective against bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa, cists and spores in pre-operative site treatments, skin, periodontal and also in eye infections. It is an effective germicide. High dilutions are active in destroying, within fifteen seconds, the organisms commonly found in the mouth. It is effective in higher dilutions than the stock commercial preparations of the other common antiseptics. When povidone-iodine is used to prepare the oral mucosa for local anesthetic injection prior to dental procedures, the hazard of direct bacterial infection is removed almost completely.
