Clinical Trial Summary

Propolis is a natural product collected by bees to seal holes and repair structures in their hives. Recently it has attracted much attention as useful substance applied in medicine and cosmetics thanks to its antimicrobial properties. Contemporary dentistry is an inseparable part of medicine and therefore attempts were made to use propolis in dentistry, as well.

Purpose of the study: to investigate the effect of propolis administered in chewing gum as compared to that incorporated in mouthwash on plaque accumulation, microbial population and patient acceptance.
