| description |
Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the plaque and gingivitis reducing effect
of a dentifrice containing chlorhexidine and aluminium lactate compared with a
control toothpaste during the course of 6 months.
Material and Methods: This randomized, double-blind study looked prospectively at
participants over a 6-month period. Plaque, gingivitis, calculus formation and tooth
staining were assessed in 59 participants, who were divided into parallel groups. The
participants used either a chlorhexidine and aluminium lactate-containing toothpaste
(test group) or a minus active control toothpaste (control group). Parameters were
assessed at baseline and again after 1, 3 and 6 months.
Results: After 6 months of product use, both groups had less gingivitis compared with
the baseline evaluation (po0.001). At this time point, the test group showed a
statistically significant lower gingival index values compared with the control group
(p50.001). No statistically significant differences between either the groups or time
points were detected with regard to plaque index and the development of calculus and
staining.
Conclusion: Although there was a statistically significant difference at 6 months
between test and control groups, this difference was too small to be considered
clinically meaningful. |
