Filter by:This 6-month clinical study was designed to investigate clinical efficacy on plaque and gingivitis for the Meridol Base Mouthwash containing 0.2% zinc lactate, 0.17% amine fluoride and 0.0275% sodium fluoride as compared to a Negative Control Mouthwash containing 0.057% sodium fluoride after 3 and 6 months of product use.
This study aims to investigate the changes in saliva and dental plaque pH after consuming sugar-free chewing gum containing 5% of aqueous propolis in children aged between 8-11 years. The studied sample will be divided into two groups: Group A (Control group) placebo chewing gum, and Group B (Experimental group) aqueous propolis chewing gum. All children will experience both types of chewing gum with an interval of 1 week between the two studied groups.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the use of a toothbrushing assisting mobile application in dental plaque removal and adherence to the toothbrushing routine, in preschool children (3-5 yrs old) when brushing with either manual or powered toothbrush. Objectives: To identify the effectiveness in dental plaque control in relation to the following parental characteristics: - Sociodemographic (area of residence, average income, education level) - Oral Health status - Oral Health Literacy - Parenting style - Parental oral hygiene practices
Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) can lead to many clinical conditions and affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).
The main goal of this study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of an on-market dentifrice containing 67 percent (%) sodium bicarbonate and 0.31% sodium fluoride to a reference regular fluoride dentifrice on treating gingival bleeding and gingival inflammation as well as reducing plaque accumulation in population with gingivitis after 12 weeks use.
The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between the dental plaque indices measured different imaging systems and conventional clinical indices that assess dental plaque. From among the patients who visited Marmara University, Faculty of Dentistry 30 adults between the age of 18-30, who had under 3 DMFT scores, were selected for full-mouth imaging. Digital dental photography, digital scanning system and fluorecam methods were used for taking intraoral images. The Turesky Modified Quigley Hein Plaque Index (TMQHPI) was scored both by the clinical examination method and on the images taken. The correlations between the clinical examinaton, digital photography, digital scanning system and fluorecam scores were analyzed. Maxillary and mandibulary anterior teeth's buccal surfaces were scored to TMQHPI after using disclosing agent.
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy in terms of bacterial plaque removal, in a single use, of a new Y-shaped automatic electric toothbrush with nylon bristles, compared with the electric toothbrush of similar shape but with silicone bristles, with the manual toothbrush, and with a negative control (no brushing) in a group of volunteer students. Primary endpoint: difference in "full mouth plaque score" between before and after brushing. Secondary endpoint: sensation of "clean mouth" assessed on VAS scale from 0 to 10 where 0 indicates no sensation of clean mouth and 10 maximum sensation of clean mouth. Single-center, randomized, controlled, superiority, cross-over, examiner-blinded study with 5 treatments (Y-shaped electric toothbrush with nylon bristles, similarly shaped electric toothbrush with silicone bristles, manual brushing for 45 seconds, manual brushing for 2 minutes, no brushing), carried out in a single session and spaced one week apart.
The aim of this analysis was to compare gingivitis- and plaque-reduction efficacy from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) up to six months long evaluating oscillating-rotating, sonic, and manual toothbrushes
Double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study investigating dental biofilm accumulation after 4-days in 28 subjects randomised to receive: Sequence 1: 5 active enzyme-containing lozenges per day for 4-days followed by a 2-week washout period followed by 5 identical placebo lozenges per day for 4-days or Sequence 2: 5 placebo lozenges per day for 4-days followed by a 2-week washout period followed by 5 identical active enzyme lozenges per day for 4-days
The objective of this project was to investigate the short-term in situ anti-plaque effect of cymenol, using the Dentius Deep Plaque software
