简要总结
The present study compares the effectiveness of two mouthwash formulations (0.12% CHX and 0.05% CHX+0.05%CPC) in reducing gingival inflammation and microbial colonization in individuals with gingivitis and in preventing periodontitis recurrence. The main focus is on assessing the clinical impact of the mouthwashes over six months, with a secondary goal of evaluating their effect on systemic blood pressure.
详细描述
This study aims to assess the impact of at-home use of 0.05% CPC + 0.05% chlorhexidine or 0.12% chlorhexidine, combined with professional plaque removal, on gingival inflammation and microbial quantity and quality in individuals diagnosed with gingivitis and reduced periodontium. It seeks to identify the most effective mouthwash formulation for reducing microbial colonization and preventing periodontitis recurrence. Comparing the commonly used 0.12% chlorhexidine with the alternative formulation of 0.05% chlorhexidine + 0.05% CPC over one month, with no reported side effects, is the main focus. The study does not pose risks to participants, with the main inconvenience being tooth enamel darkening, which can be easily resolved with professional dental cleaning. The primary objective is to evaluate the additional clinical effect of both formulations after professional plaque removal over six months in patients undergoing supportive periodontal therapy. The secondary objective is to assess the impact of these antimicrobials on systemic blood pressure.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of sites with Bleeding on Probing
时间窗: Bleeding on Probing (BOP) will be recorded by a calibrated and blinded examiner at the baseline visit and at one, two, three, and six months after treatment.
Evaluate the additional effect on bleeding on probing of one month application of 0.12% CHX or 0.05% CHX + 0.05% CPC following a professional mechanical plaque removal (PMPR) session for a clinical evaluation period of 6 months in patients undergoing supportive periodontal therapy (gingivitis with reduced periodontium).
次要结局
- Oral microbiota changes(The subgingival samples will be collected at the baseline visit, at 1, 2, and 3 months)
- Blood Pressure(The systemic systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured at baseline, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months and 6 months.)
