• A participant with probing pocket depths of less than (<) 3.5mm and a minimum of four teeth from maxillary canine to third molar in both maxillary quadrants that are scorable (including two molars and at least one premolar) at screening.
• A participant has, localized, plaque induced gingivitis at screening, defined as >= 10 and less than equal to (<=) 30% of sites exhibiting bleeding on probing (BOP).
• A participants have a canine, one or two premolars, and two or three molars present in each maxillary quadrant (right and left side).

Exclusion Criteria:

• A participant who has participated in other studies (including non-medicinal studies) involving investigational product(s) within 30 days prior to study entry and/or during study participation.

• A participant with, in the opinion of the investigator or medically qualified designee, an acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator or medically qualified designee, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study.

• A participant who is breast feeding, is pregnant (self-reported) or intending to become pregnant over the duration of the study.

  1. Is taking antibiotics during the study or has taken antibiotics in the two weeks prior to the screening visit.
  2. Is using or has used an anti-bacterial toothpaste/mouthwash (e.g., chlorhexidine) or another oral care product within 2 weeks of Screening that, in the opinion of the investigator or dentally qualified designee, could affect plaque formation or gingival health.
  3. Currently taking a systemic medication (e.g., anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, immunosuppressants) or traditional/ herbal remedy which, in the opinion of the Investigator, could affect plaque/ gingival condition (e.g., ibuprofen, aspirin, warfarin, cyclosporin, phenytoin, calcium channel blockers).
  4. Smokes or uses smokeless forms of tobacco (example [e.g.] chewing tobacco, gutkha, pan containing tobacco, e-cigarettes [vapes]).
  5. Is diagnosed with xerostomia or who the investigator believes might suffer from xerostomia based upon medications or oral examination.
  6. Has a tongue or lip piercing, or any other oral feature that, in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the proper usage of a toothbrush.
  7. Has, in the opinion of the investigator or medically qualified designee, signs of active periodontal disease or who is receiving or has received treatment for periodontal disease (including surgery) within 12 months of Screening.
  8. Requires immediate dental intervention to resolve any oral condition.
  9. Has dentures (partial or full) or has an orthodontic appliance (bands, appliances, or fixed/ removable retainers) that, in the opinion of the investigator, could interfere with the proper usage of a toothbrush.
