A Comparison of Chlorhexidine and Green Tea Mouthwash in Patients With Gingivitis and Their Salivary Neutrophil and TAC Levels.

Подробное описание

This research was structured as a double-blind, randomized clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of CHX and green tea mouthwash on periodontal health in patients with gingivitis. 84 patients from the Department of Periodontics at Broujerd Dental School of the Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences were chosen for the study. Before the commencement of the trial, various clinical periodontal parameters, such as plaque index, bleeding on probing, gingival index, probing depth, and clinical attachment level, were measured in six different areas of the tooth surface. Subsequently, scaling and root planning were carried out, and oral hygiene practices were enhanced for all participants. The participants were then randomly divided into three groups: Group A, CHX, and Group B, which was provided with Green tea mouthwash two times daily. After three months, the clinical periodontal parameters were reevaluated. Furthermore, to compare the total PMN and TAC levels in saliva before and after the administration of these supplements, as well as in patients who did not receive any medication, 2 ml of non-stimulated saliva was collected from each participant at the beginning and end of the study for analysis using UV-spectrophotometric methods. The selection criteria for eligible participants in this study were also clearly defined.

Вмешательства

• Препарат CHX mouthwash
  A total of 84 individuals diagnosed with gingivitis were selected for this study. These participants were randomly assigned to two different groups. The purpose of the study was to measure the periodontal parameters of the two molars adjacent to the mandible using a periodontal probe. All of the patients received scaling and root planing (SRP) as part of their treatment. However, the treatment groups differed in terms of the supplements they received. Group A was given a twice-daily dose of CHX,
