“…This is in contrast to the findings of a systematic review that showed that the combination of CHX and a SLS dentifrice is not contraindicated. 39 Therefore, the regular dentifrice in the pre‐experimental phase could be used without any specific instruction regarding CHX effectivity.…”

Objective: To test the effectiveness of a dentifrice containing the turmeric and licorice extract compared to a control for preventing plaque and gingivitis over a fourmonth period.Material and methods: Ninety (non-dental) participants with moderate gingival inflammation (≥ 40%) were selected. The triple blind study consisted of two phases, namely at first a 3-week pre-experimental phase of using an oxygenating and chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthrinse. Secondly, a 4-month experimental period in which participants were randomly assigned to a test or control group. All were instructed to brush their teeth twice daily for 2 minutes with their assigned dentifrice. Gingival bleeding (BI), plaque (PI) and gingivitis (GI) were assessed.Results: Eighty participants completed the protocol. At the first assessment in the pre-experimental phase, the mean scores of all indices showed no differences for the two groups. At the second session, the values of all three parameters had decreased significantly (p < 0.001). At the last session, the BI values were 0.52(0.25) for the test group and 0.56(0.25) for the control, the mean GI was 0.27(0.17) for the test group and 0.31(0.16) for the control, and for PI the scores were 1.89(0.46) for the test group and 1.98(0.43) for the control group. Statistical comparison of the scores for the two groups at each stage of the study showed no significant difference for any of the parameters. Conclusion:Within the limits of the current study design, dentifrice formulation and concentration of turmeric/licorice extracts, the results show that the adjuvant effect of the natural ingredients in the test dentifrice was not evident on clinical parameters of gingivitis and plaque.

“…Recently, the potential effect of SLS from dentifrice slurry on CHX efficacy was evaluated. Based on the collective evidence, it was concluded that under normal brushing circumstances, an SLS dentifrice could be used without any interference with CHX activity regarding its inhibiting effect on the dental plaque …”

“…[ 7 8 ] The set of instructions given to the subjects in Group A to use it half an hour after brushing was due to the cationic nature of the compound which tends to interact with the anionic detergent in the tooth paste and thus is not effective if used immediately. [ 26 ] Furthermore, they were told to refrain from eating and drinking for 20 min after its use which was to avoid staining of the teeth as CHX reacts with colored components in food items. Subjects who were working/college students found it difficult to follow these instructions in the morning when they had limited time and thus, they presented with staining.…”

Objectives:Despite the adverse effects of chlorhexidine (CHX) in the oral cavity, it is still the most commonly prescribed mouthrinse for halitosis control due to its excellent results. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of a mouthrinse with herbal formulation for halitosis control with 0.2% CHX gluconate containing rinse and to simultaneously assess adverse effects caused by the herbal mouthrinse if any.Materials and Methods:Ninety-six systemically healthy subjects with chronic generalized gingivitis were recruited in the study and divided into three groups receiving 0.2% CHX gluconate mouthrinse, herbal mouthrinse, or negative control, respectively as Group A, B, and C. The halimeter scores and organoleptic scores were recorded for each subject at baseline and after scaling. Others parameters recorded were plaque index and gingival index. All scores were reassessed on the 7th and 14th day, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using Kruskal–Wallis ANOVA, Mann–Whitney U-test, and Wilcoxon matched pairs test.Results:There was an overall reduction in the halimeter scores both in Group A and B subjects which were not statistically significant within the groups; this was in accordance with the decrease in the mean organoleptic scores. Reduction in Group C scores was the least and differed statistically from both Group A and B scores.Conclusions:The results indicate an equivalent reduction in breath odor by both the herbal mouthrinse and CHX. Furthermore, side effects were less, and patient compliance was more with the herbal mouthrinse, which can thus be prescribed more safely and with predictable outcomes for oral malodor.
