Active clinical trials for "Dental Plaque"

Background; A new mouth rinse formulation ("Lacer Oros Acción Integral", Lacer SA, Barcelona, Spain) has been recently proposed, including O-Cymen-5-ol, potassium nitrate, zinc chloride, dipotassium glycyrrhizate, sodium fluoride, panthenol and xylitol, within its ingredients. Thus, it may be relevant to test the efficacy of this new "Lacer Oros Acción Integral" mouth rinse formulation in a RCT. Primary Objective: The primary objective of this RCT will be to evaluate the antiplaque/antigingivitis effects of the test mouth rinse. Population: Consecutive subjects in supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) will be screened at the Post-Graduate Periodontal Clinic in the University Complutense, Madrid, and enrolled in the clinical trial if they are periodontitis patients, already enrolled in a SPT, for at least 6 months, systemically healthy, with moderate gingival inflammation and complains of dentin hypersensitivity. Study design: pilot, parallel, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 12-week, clinical trial Intervention: The experimental group will use three times daily a provided manual toothbrush with a sodium fluoride dentifrice, followed by the use of the test mouth rinse (Lacer Oros Acción Integral - new formula, Barcelona, Spain). The control group will use three times daily a provided manual toothbrush with a sodium fluoride dentifrice, followed by the use of the control mouth rinse (Lacer Oros Acción Integral - new formula, without active ingredients, Barcelona, Spain). Visits: Screening, baseline, 2 and 12 weeks. Outcomes: Periodontal clinical outcomes (plaque levels, gingival condition, probing pocket depth), Stainign, Microbiological outcomes (culture and qPCR). Patient reported outcomes, compliance, adverse effects.

This study assessed the efficacy of an oral hygiene regimen relative to a standard marketed toothpaste and manual toothbrush.

The objective of this clinical research study is to assess the efficacy of three oral hygiene multi-component regimens encompassing the use of a manual toothbrush, toothpaste and a mouthwash in controlling established dental plaque and gingivitis.

This is a study to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of tooth and interproximal cleaning modalities on oral health.

Dental plaque is a well known etiologic factor for gingivitis. Recently, herbal extracts are a matter of scientific interest to inhibit plaque accumulation on teeth. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of pistacia Mutica (PM) mouth wash on de novo dental plaque plaque formation, gingival inflammation indices and oral microorganisms.

Evaluate the efficacy of an oral rinse on dental plaque and gingival inflammation

The primary objective of this 6 month study is to compare the effectiveness of oral health promotion interventions on both clinical oral health, and oral opportunistic respiratory pathogens in institutionalized elders. Secondary objectives are to investigate changes in oral health-related quality of life, incidence of adverse side effects, pneumonia, as well as subject acceptability. Elders residing in nursing homes in Hong Kong will be recruited into the clinical trial. Patients will be randomly allocated into one of the following groups: 0.2% chlorhexidine spray, 0.1% pH-balanced chlorine dioxide spray, or sterile water spray (placebo control), once daily. Dental plaque, gingival bleeding, oral opportunistic respiratory pathogens, oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), and pneumonia incidence will be assessed at baseline, 3 months and 6 months. Subject acceptability of the interventions will be assessed at the end of the clinical trial.

The rationale of our study is to compare the efficacy of natural honey base preparation with other commercially available mouthwashes i.e chlorhexidine base in prevention of dental plaque formation as honey is readily available and cost effective and organic in nature. This study will help to provide the data of our community and positive result may provide a new method of oral hygiene maintenance with fewer side effects. We will be able to deliver the best anti-plaque agent.

Myrrh-based mouthwash has the potential to be a suitable alternative to the gold standard chlorhexidine mouthwash for dental plaque and gingivitis reduction. To date, however, little research has been carried out to determine its true clinical significance on periodontal health. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of 1% myrrh mouthwash with commercially available 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash in terms of plaque and gingivitis reduction and inflammatory mediator (interleukin-1β) inhibition.
