Summary

Using an experimental, non-invasive intra-oral imaging device, this study evaluates the effects on the gingival tissue when oral hygiene is stopped in a section of the mouth for two weeks and gingivitis develops. The effects on the gingival tissue continues to be evaluated as oral hygiene is resumed and the gingival tissue returns to health.

Conditions

  • Plaque Induced Gingivitis

Interventions

DEVICE

Plaque induced gingivitis

Non-invasive microimaging (OTC device) of gingival tissue where oral hygiene cessation utilizing localized stent-induced biofilm overgrowth model (SIBO), will manipulate the participants' oral environment by leading to reversible inflammation of the gingival tissues.

DEVICE

Oral hygiene maintenance

Non-invasive microimaging (OTC device) of gingival tissue where oral hygiene has been maintained by tooth brushing with fluoride toothpaste and flossing twice daily.
