Abstract: Background:The aim of our clinical trial was to assess and compare the antiplaque and anti-inflammatory potential of a probiotic mouthwash with 0.2% chlorhexidine and saline.Materials and Methods:A randomized parallel group study was designed for a period of 4 weeks on 45 systemically healthy subjects between 20 and 30 years having chronic gingivitis. The study population was divided into three groups. Group A - 15 subjects were advised experimental (probiotic) mouthwash. Group B - 15 subjects were advised pos… Show more

“…A study conducted by Twetman et al reported that there was a reduction of TNF-α levels in the gingival crevicular fluid after 2 weeks of administering probiotics in the form of a chewing gum [19]. Another study conducted by Nadkerny et al reported that there was a significant reduction in the plaque index, gingival index, and oral hygiene index after 4 weeks of rinsing with a probiotic mouthwash [20]. A study conducted by Staab et al reported that a probiotic milk drink containing L. casei may reduce the amount of matrix metalloproteinase-3 after drinking the probiotic milk drink for 8 weeks [21].…”

“…The main objective of the treatments is to avoid recolonization by pathogenic bacteria. Probiotics as adjuvants to mechanical treatment could modify and occupy the subgingival niche susceptible to recolonization by pathogenic bacteria and allow a new equilibrium with the oral environment (Figure 1) [7]. Probiotics could also alter the bacterial profile of the biofilm adjacent to implants [29].…”

“…Dhawan and Dhawan [11] showed a significant reduction of PI up to 4 weeks with the probiotic combination Lactobacillus sporogenes, Streptococcus faecalis PC, Clostridium butyrium TO-A, and Bacillus mesentericus TO-A in patients with gingivitis. In studies by Desmukh et al [34] and Nadkerny et al [7], individuals with gingival health and gingivitis were administered with a probiotic combination for two weeks. Control group used chlorhexidine.…”
