Description
ABSTRACT:
Background- Plaque control and removal of bacterial biofilm are essential components in preventing
and treating gingival disease. Mouthwashes improve oral health care by inhibiting bacterial adhesion,
colonization, and metabolic activity. The study was aimed to assess and compare the plaque formation,
gingival inflammation, and gingival bleeding.
Materials & Methods- The study was designed as a randomized clinical study where clinical
parameters such as gingival index, plaque index, and modified sulcular bleeding index were recorded
immediately and 15 days after oral prophylaxis. The subjects in this study included 80 gingivitis patients
who are divided into four groups of 20 patients in each group. Group A was given chlorhexidine
mouthwash, group B was given Hiora, group C was given Perio Aid and group D was given distilled
water.
Results- In each of the study groups, there was a significant reduction in gingival, plaque, and modified
sulcular bleeding index scores from baseline to 15 days. The chlorhexidine group demonstrated
significantly lesser mean gingival, plaque, and modified sulcular bleeding index scores compared to all
other three groups.
Conclusion- Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that all three types of mouthwashes are
effective in reducing dental plaque and gingivitis adjunctive to scaling. Herbal mouthwashes are
comparable to chlorhexidine in terms of plaque reduction and reduction of gingival inflammation.
