Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the antibacterial effect 12 hours after 4-week use of a toothpaste containing amine base, zinc lactate, and fluoride. For this, healthy people will be invited to use two different toothpaste: control - containing only fluoride; test - containing fluoride plus a combination with zinc. The primary outcome is the efficacy of the test toothpaste in the oral bacterial load reduction in samples of saliva and oral mucosa (obtained through scraping); the second outcome is effect of the test toothpaste in the expression of mucin in the oral mucosa.
