Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Oral Mucosal Disorder
Interventions
Drug: Medium SLS toothpaste
Drug: High SLS toothpaste
Device: Anti-plaque
Registration Number
NCT04601103
Lead Sponsor
Solventum US LLC
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of oral tissue sloughing through self-report by study subjects and by professional dental examinations.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of oral tissue sloughing through self-report by study subjects and by professional dental examinations. Adverse events will be tracked through study dental examinations and subject diaries with twice daily use of the 3M Oral Rinse used in combination with toothpaste containing one of three levels (no, medium, high) of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS).

Determine the subjects' acceptance of sloughing and/or other side effects

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Oral Mucosal Exfoliation (Oral Sloughing)End of treatment (3 weeks)

Percentage of participants who experienced oral sloughing as reported either by the subject or determined by the dental evaluator.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Number of Participants With a Given Range of Average Oral Mucosal Sloughing Index ScoresMid-Treatment (10 days)

Average score based on the mean of sloughing scores over 12 intra-oral areas. The sloughing score uses a 6 point scale as follows: 0= no sloughing, 1=flecks of desquamation, 2=sheets of desquamation, 3=redness, not due to plaque, 4=erosion of mucosa, 5=ulcerated areas.

The twelve intra-oral areas of the mouth are as follows: dorsal and ventral surfaces of the tongue, floor and roof of the mouth, right and left buccal mucosa, gingival tissue.
