“…The present study used plaque score data based on the modified Quigley and Hein plaque index (QHPI) obtained from a recent study that was conducted (November 2009‐November 2010) at the Department of Periodontology of the Academic Center for Dentistry Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The protocol had been reviewed and approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Academic Medical Center (AMC) of Amsterdam (MEC 09⁄195 # 09.17.1198) and registered in the Dutch Trial Register (NTR2053).…”

“…Among the cohort that was followed at 3‐month intervals (Figure ), the effect of the investigated interventions that had been provided at the start of the study on the clinically assessed parameters had worn off at the 4‐month evaluation. Given that from that point onwards, no significant differences were found between groups, the toothbrush wear scores and mean plaque scores were used for all groups combined for this investigation.…”

“…To establish whether plaque score data would correlate with the wear score of the toothbrushes, and whether this would provide a basis for a recommendation when to replace a toothbrush, an explorative analysis of data obtained from a cohort of 267 participants who participated in a previous study comprising a 1‐year period . Clinical assessments were performed every 3 months, and the same type of fresh manual toothbrushes was provided for each period.…”

Objective To investigate to what extent the degree of toothbrush wear of 3‐month‐old manual toothbrushes influence plaque scores. Material and methods During a recently published study with a follow‐up of 1 year, all participants performed a similar basic home‐based oral hygiene regimen. Hence, they were instructed to brush for 2 minutes twice daily according to the Bass method technique and using a standard dentifrice containing sodium fluoride. Toothbrushes were turned in every 3‐month, and the degree of wear was scored. The mean plaque score data were additionally analysed and correlated with wear scores of the toothbrushes. Results For analysis, for each of 172 individual participants, a set of three identical, 3‐month‐old used toothbrushes were available. Toothbrush wear varied widely between participants. However, per patient, the 3‐month wear status of the three evaluated toothbrushes was strongly correlated (rho = 0.8, P < 0.0001). Participants who returned toothbrushes with extreme wear had significantly higher plaque scores than those who returned toothbrushes with no visible or light wear (P = 0.01). Conclusion Toothbrush wear per individual patient is fairly consistent. Toothbrushes with extreme wear were less effective than those with no or light wear. Therefore, bristle splaying appears to be a more appropriate measure of brush replacement time then the commonly used toothbrush age. Splaying of the outer tufts beyond the base of the toothbrush is a condition that indicates it is time to change the brush.

“…Good dental health is protective of various physical and mental ailments (Allen, 2003;Griffin et al, 2012;Mattila et al, 1989), but a substantial proportion of adults have insufficient levels of dental hygiene behaviours to obtain oral health related benefits (Sheiham, 2005). The use of mouth rinse leads to reduced caries increment (Marinho et al, 2016) and lower dental plague scores (Van Leeuwen et al, 2017) and should be stimulated using effective persuasive messages (Tonetti et al, 2015). One of the most popular persuasive strategies is message framing (Rothman & Salovey, 1997), where people are presented with either positive consequences of action or the negative consequences of inaction.…”

To frame or not to frame? Effects of message framing and risk priming on mouth rinse use and intention in an adult population-based sample

Good dental hygiene is key to public health. To promote dental hygiene behaviours, persuasive messages are key. Message framing is a popular theory that has seen mixed evidence. In this web-based experimental study, interaction effects of message frame, behavioural function, and risk priming were investigated on mouth rinse use and intentions in a representative sample of Dutch adults. Final included sample contained 549 participants (50.1% male, mean age = 47.4, SD = 16.1) and outcomes were immediate mouth rinse product choice, intentions to use mouth rinse, and mouth rinse behaviour at 2-week follow-up. Results demonstrated a theorized significant interaction between message frame and behavioural function were mouth rinse product choice. Two-week follow-up mouth rinse behaviour was affected by an interaction between message frame and risk prime. Message framing can thus be employed to promote dental health, but it requires attention to moderation effects which are inconsistent across behavioural outcomes. Method Participants and proceduresParticipants were Dutch adults who were registered members of an ISO-certified Internet Research Panel company. The panel consists of over 16,000 individuals and is representative for the Dutch population in terms of age, gen-J Behav Med (2019) 42:300-314 301

“…The pathogenic nature of dental plaque can be reduced by maintaining an effective oral hygiene, using mechanical and chemical approaches including daily toothbrushing, flossing or other interproximal oral hygiene techniques and an antiseptic mouthwash . A 2‐minute daily toothbrushing routine alone is not sufficient to completely remove dental plaque …”

Effectiveness of various interventions on maintenance of gingival health during 1 year – a randomized clinical trial

Abstract: OA&CHX and COMBI-group showed a clinically relevant improvement after the treatment phase in terms of dental plaque and gingival bleeding levels. At the 4-month clinical assessment, there was no longer a significant difference between groups.
