简要总结

This will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind study with three parallel arms. Subjects will be randomly assigned equally to one of three groups. One group will be given placebo gums and the remaining two groups will be given different sets of gums containing actives. Approximately 78 subjects will be enrolled from 1 participating center in India. The primary objective of this study will be to evaluate the effect on reduction in volatile sulphur compounds in oral cavity.
