Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Study to Examine Brushing on Dental Implants (NCT NCT00762619)

NCT ID: NCT00762619

Last Updated: 2011-01-25

Results Overview

Modified Plaque Index (mPI)is a Dental plaque scale as follows 0 = No plaque, 1 = Separate flecks of plaque at the cervical margin;2 = Plaque can be seen by naked eye.3 = Abundance of soft matter. The lower the number the less plaque is present on the tooth.

Participant Flow

subjects were recruited by the PI at the clinical site

subjects were screened for medical and oral health criteria and given the assigned study treatment to brush with for the next 6 months. Enrolled subjects all had 1 dental implant and 1 natural tooth identified and used for clinical data information.

Gingivitis score(GI) is defined: 0 = Absence of inflammation,1 = Mild inflammation-slight change in color and little change in texture,2 = Moderate inflammation-moderate glazing,redness,edema \& hypertrophy,3 = Severe inflammation-marked redness and hypertrophy tendency for spontaneous bleeding. Each tooth is scored on 6 surfaces:mesio-facial;2)mid-facial;3)disto-facial;4)mesio-lingual;5)mid-lingualand 6)disto-lingual. A whole mouth score = adding all the GI scores \& dividing by the total of number of sites scored. 3rd molars and teeth with restorations or crowns will be excluded.
