Plaque Removal in Children Using Charcoal and Nylon Toothbrushes

27. april 2026 opdateret af: Mennatullah Yasser Sayed Abou El Enein, Cairo University

Efficacy of Plaque Removal and Antibacterial Properties of Charcoal Infused Bristle Vs Nylon Bristle Toothbrushes in Children: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study will compare two types of toothbrushes in children: a charcoal-infused bristle toothbrush and a regular nylon bristle toothbrush. We want to see which toothbrush is better at removing plaque and reducing bacteria in the mouth. Children will be randomly assigned to use one of the toothbrushes. We will measure the levels of bacteria in small samples of fluid taken from the gums to see if one toothbrush reduces harmful bacteria more than the other.

Studieoversigt

Detaljeret beskrivelse

This study is a clinical trial designed to compare the effectiveness of two types of toothbrushes in children aged 6-10. One group of children will use a toothbrush with charcoal-infused bristles, while the other group will use a standard nylon bristle toothbrush. All children will be taught the same brushing technique and will brush their teeth twice daily for two minutes using a pea-sized amount of toothpaste.The study will last two weeks. Researchers will measure four times how much dental plaque is removed from each child's teeth, collect samples from the gums to examine bacteria, and test the toothbrush bristles for bacterial contamination by counting bacterial colonies.The goal is to determine which toothbrush is better at cleaning teeth and reducing harmful bacteria in the mouth.

Eksperimentel: Charcoal-Infused Bristle Toothbrush
Children in this arm will use a soft charcoal-infused bristle toothbrush twice daily for two minutes each time, using a pea-sized amount of fluoride-free toothpaste (Dabur Herb'l, India). Participants will be trained in the horizontal scrub technique and instructed on proper toothbrush storage to minimize bacterial contamination.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Change in full-mouth plaque score assessed by O'Leary Plaque Control Index from baseline to 2 weeks
Tidsramme: aseline, immediately after training, 1 week, and 2 weeks post-training
Full-mouth plaque score will be measured using the O'Leary Plaque Control Index at four time points: baseline (before training), immediately after training, one week, and two weeks post-training. Each tooth surface (mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual) will be examined. The plaque score will be expressed as the percentage of plaque-containing surfaces relative to the total number of surfaces examined
aseline, immediately after training, 1 week, and 2 weeks post-training
