研究概览
简要总结
This will be a single centre, single blind, randomized, three treatment, three period crossover design, modified, in situ, study in healthy participants. In this in situ model the tubule occlusion properties of dentifrices will be evaluated by comparing an experimental dentifrice formulation to a regular fluoride dentifrice and a negative control (mineral water) over a ten day period.
详细描述
This modified in situ model study will evaluate the mode-of-action of an experimental dentifrice containing stannous fluoride to occlude tubules compared to a regular fluoride dentifrice and a negative control (mineral water). The study treatments will be administered for a total of 10 days, with participants wearing two appliances in their mouth that will hold samples of dentine. The dentine samples will be examined after 1, 4, 8 and 10 days of treatment using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the resulting images graded for the amount of occlusion. In addition, the robustness of any occlusion generated by the treatments will be tested by exposing the dentine samples to an acid challenge (orange juice) after 9 and 10 days treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Mean Occlusion Scores After 8 Days Treatment Application
时间窗: Baseline and Day 8
Change from baseline (pre-dose) in the mean occlusion classification score was calculated. The degree of occlusion was measured using the following classification grades; 0 Not Evaluable, 1 Occluded, 2 Mostly Occluded, 3 Equally Occluded/Unoccluded, 4 Mostly Unoccluded and 5 Unoccluded
次要结局
- Change From Baseline in Mean Occlusion Scores After 1, 4, & 10 Days Treatment Application(Baseline, Day 1, 4, and 10)
