Abstract
This study involved a bacteriological investigation of the effect
on plaque formation in seven adult male subjects of an experimental
mouthwash (CP-101) as compared to the use of a placebo mouthwash.
Following a thorough dental prophylaxis, the subjects refrained from
toothbrushing the buccal surfaces of the lower anterior teeth for two
periods of five days. During these test periods the remaining teeth
were brushed in the customary manner. During the first 5-day period
the subjects rinsed twice daily with a placebo mouthwash (CP-lOlP).
During the second 5-day period the subjects rinsed twice daily for
one minute each time with 15 mls of the experimental mouthwash.
The results showed that the use of CP-101 mouthwash (compared
to the placebo) markedly reduced the amount of plaque that accumulated
as judged by clinical observation and documented by intraoral photography. [TRUNCATED]
