2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
It is well accepted that the greatest contributor to the health of the periodontium and dentition is regular and thorough dental plaque removal, typically by means of adequate toothbrushing. Although patients are typically informed about the risks of substandard oral hygiene and the contributing factors in oral/dental disease by dental professionals, research has shown that an undesirably high proportion of adults find thorough toothbrushing with a standard manual toothbrush to achieve a plaque-free state challenging, as evidenced by high worldwide levels of gingivitis and/or periodontitis.
The objective of this 30 day, randomized, two group, parallel, examiner-blind clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of AutoBrush® 360° U-shaped Sonic Toothbrush on plaque and gingivitis, compared to an American Dental Association (ADA) reference manual soft toothbrush. The extent of gingival abrasion and recession and oral safety will be evaluated.
