Abstract

Introduction. GINGIVITIS is the most common periodontal disease in children and adolescents. Inspite of changing concepts on the etiology and caltural history of periodontal disease over the last few decades, PLAQUE CONTROL by self care is still regarded as an essential step in the prevention and treatment of GINGIVITIS. Since most individuals, especially children and adolescent seem to have difficulty in achiving perfect PLAQUE CONTROL by mechanical means, investigations has been directed towards the development of safe and effective antiplaque DENTIFRICEs. Herbal components have been successfully used in dentistry as tooth cleaning and antiplaque agents. The objective of present study is to evaluate the clinical effects of a DENTIFRICE containing the extracts of sages chiory and siwak on GINGIVITIS and PLAQUE CONTROL amongst a group of adolescents in Mashhad.Methods. A double-blind clinical trial was designed to evaluate the effects of a DENTIFRICE containing Sage, Chicory and Siwak extracts on the control of plaque and gingival inflammation in 12-13 years old boys. Sixty students were divided into two groups. One group used test DENTIFRICE and the other used placebo DENTIFRICE daily. At the begining of the trial each subject was scored for plaque and gingival indices (PI and GI) clinical evaluation were examined after 28 days.Results. Analyzing the baseline data showed no significant defference between the PI and GI indices in the test and control groups. But at the end of the trial, there was highly significant difference (P<0.001) between the mean value of GI in two groups. The effect of test DENTIFRICE on the reduction of GI versus the palcebo DENTIFRICE was 54.21%. Also at the end of the trial there were significant difference (P<0.004) between the mean value of PI in two groups. The effect of test DENTIFRICE on the reduction of PI compare to the placebo DENTIFRICE was 2.3%. Discussion. It was concluded that the herbal DENTIFRICE was effective in the control of plaque and GINGIVITIS and it have not been associated with side effects.
