Plaque Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effectiveness of Brushing and Flossing Sequence on Control of Plaque and Gingival Inflammation-A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial in Klinik Pergigian, MMMC, Melaka
This study evaluates the effectiveness of brushing and flossing sequence in the control of dental plaque and gingival inflammation.
Periodontal disease is the disease of the supporting dental tissues like alveolar
bone,periodontal ligament cementum and gingiva. The most common form is plaque-induced
gingivitis . Bleeding on gingival probing is one of the hallmarks of gingival
inflammation.The removal of dental plaque is the most crucial action for preventing and
treating gingival inflammation. Toothbrush along with toothpaste are still the most reliable
means of plaque control. However, cleaning should be thorough and performed at regular
intervals.
Toothbrush has a limited ability to reach all the areas around the tooth. Inter-dental areas
are prone for plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation. Dental floss is one of the most
effective tool in addition to tooth brush to remove inter-dental plaque. The sequence of
using toothbrush and dental floss may influence the removal of dental plaque and consequently
reducing the bleeding on probing of gingiva. There is conflicting evidence in the literature.
The hypothesis of this study is that the sequence of brushing and flossing will not influence
control of plaque control and gingival inflammation.
