What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in plaque score
Time Frame: Baseline; 2 weeks

Visual quantification of dental plaque amount on teeth buccal surfaces (wisdom teeth excluded).

0% = no visible plaque on teeth surfaces 100% = plaque visible on all teeth surfaces

Baseline; 2 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bleeding on Probing
Time Frame: Baseline; 2 weeks

Quantifying gingival bleeding after gentle gum manipulation assessed on 6 points per tooth (exluded wisdom teeth).

0% = No bleeding on all assessed points 100% = Bleeding on all assessed points

Baseline; 2 weeks
