Active clinical trials for "Gingivitis"

In the present randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trial, we investigated the short term clinical efficacy of a dentifrice containing Eugenia uniflora L. ripe fruit extract in preventing gingivitis in children.

This will be a single-center, 12 week, examiner-blind, randomized, stratified (gender and baseline mean whole mouth MGI score), two-treatment, parallel group, clinical study in healthy adult volunteers with moderate gingivitis. This study will evaluate the efficacy of a dentifrice containing 0.454% weight by weight (w/w) stannous fluoride to control gingivitis and gingival bleeding following 12 weeks twice daily brushing, compared to a negative control dentifrice.

Parallel, double blind, randomized, Institutional Review Board (IRB) -approved study involving approximately 160 subjects to complete. Subjects were randomly assigned to either the test product (Arm & Hammer Advance White Brilliant Sparkle) or the control (Crest Cavity Protection Regular) based on baseline mean whole-mouth plaque and gingival scores and age.Subjects brushed with their assigned dentifrice two times (2X) daily and were evaluated for gingivitis, bleeding and plaque at Baseline and after 4-, 8-, and 12-weeks of product use. Return to pre-study hygiene regimen for 4 weeks and final evaluation at 16 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the gingival health of a test dentifrice (0.454% weight by weight [w/w] stannous fluoride) to a negative control dentifrice by comparing modified gingival index, bleeding index and plaque index scores.

To evaluate the effect of probiotics supplied in two different forms (dairy products containing probiotics as yogurt and freeze-dried synthetic probiotics sachets) on improving gingival condition and caries potentiality of dental plaque in adolescents

The objective of the study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of an experimental power brush to a regular manual brush in the reduction of gingivitis and dental plaque over an 8 week period by using the Modified Gingival Index, the Gingival Bleeding Index and the Rustogi Modification of the Navy Plaque Index.

This study is intended to measure serum trefoil factor 3 at baseline and 3 months after, following nonsurgical periodontal therapy in patients with Gingivitis and Chronic Periodontitis.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of two finish line designs (feather edge and rounded shoulder) in relation with two occlusal designs (flat and planar) in endodontically treated teeth restored with zirconia crowns.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of oral administration of synbiotic tablets on the clinical parameters and the levels of selected inflammatory mediators in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in smokers and non-smokers with gingivitis. This study designed as a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial.

Traditional methods for plaque and calculus removal involve the use of mechanical and/or manual instruments, followed by surface polishing with rubber cups and low abrasive pastes. These instruments may cause the unintended removal of hard dental tissue, such as enamel, cementum and dentine, increasing surface roughness. Moreover, they can lead to gingival recession and consequent hypersensitivity and discomfort during treatment. New minimally-invasive approaches to biofilm removal have been recently introduced with the aim to limit the negative impact on the oral tissue. Air-polishing with low-abrasiveness powders are proven suitable for both for supra- and sub-gingival plaque removal. The use of low-abrasiveness powders could lead to several advantages, such as reduction of treatment discomfort, shorter treatment time, the possibility of cleaning areas with difficult access and minor damage on soft and hard tissues. Aim: the aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the Full Mouth Erithrytol Powder Air-Polishing Therapy compared to traditional ultrasonic debridment (UD) and polishing in patient affected by gingivitis. Test hypotesis: there is no difference in clinical outcome between two methods against the hypothesis of a difference in terms of changes in Blending on Probing (BOP). To test this hypothesis, the patients, upon initial evaluation, were treated in split mouth: The control group undergoing the standard procedure with full-mouth ultrasonic debridement and polishing with rubber cup and abrasive paste. The study group undergoing an innovative procedure involving full-mouth air-polishing followed by ultrasonic calculus removal. Follow-ups are scheduled at 2 weeks and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months.
