Mouthwash

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation caused by dental plaque that can destroy periodontal tissues. Current primary treatments include mechanical removal methods such as supragingival scaling and subgingival curettage. However, issues like microbial recolonization leading to inflammation recurrence exist, often necessitating the use of antimicrobial agents. Prolonged antibiotic use, however, can easily lead to bacterial resistance. Amphion oral rinse is a novel biomimetic material mouthwash. It inhibits plaque regrowth by forming a long-lasting physical barrier and avoids flora imbalance. Compared with traditional antibiotics, this product has shown unique advantages in the adjuvant treatment of periodontal diseases. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Amphion rinse combined with conventional periodontal therapy in patients with stage I-IV periodontitis, including plaque control and inflammation improvement. Additionally, it will analyze its impact on the oral microbiome and collect user experience feedback to provide a reference for its clinical application.

Dental plaque is a biofilm that accumulates on tooth surfaces and is a primary factor in the development of gingival inflammation. While toothbrushing remains the main method for plaque control, the effectiveness of mechanical oral hygiene depends largely on individual compliance and technique. As a result, mouthwashes are commonly used as adjunctive chemical plaque control agents. Chlorhexidine gluconate is an effective anti-plaque mouthwash, but its use is associated with undesirable effects that may limit patient acceptance. Resveratrol is a naturally derived compound with reported antimicrobial and anti-biofilm properties, suggesting its potential use as an alternative chemical plaque control agent. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-period crossover clinical trial aims to evaluate the short-term anti-plaque effect of a resveratrol-based mouthwash by measuring supragingival plaque regrowth over a 24-hour period in periodontally healthy individuals. The effects of the resveratrol-based mouthwash will be compared with 0.12% chlorhexidine (CHX) and a placebo mouthwash under standardized conditions without mechanical oral hygiene

Moringa oleifera (MO) is an extraordinary nutritious vegetable tree with high medicinal value for its antibacterial properties. Formulation of various natural dental remedies from this plant and their testing for their effectiveness might yield promising antibacterial, antiplaque and anticariogenic agents with minimal side effects. Aim of the study: Part I: The aim of this in-vitro part of the study is to formulate a nontoxic mouthwash from MO leaves extract, having antimicrobial activity, to be used in part II of the study. Furthermore, stability and efficacy of the developed mouth wash will be evaluated. Part II: The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the antibacterial, antiplaque and anticariogenic effect of MO mouthwash compared to chlorhexidine mouthwash.
