Can chemical mouthwash agents achieve plaque/gingivitis control?
Van der Weijden .et.al -2015
Relevance :
238 in 2024
Conclusion :
The summarized evidence suggests that mouthwashes containing chlorhexidine(CHX) and essential oils (EO) had a large effect supported by a strong body of evidence. Also there was strong evidence for a moderate effect of cetylpyridinium chloride(CPC). Evidence suggests that a CHX mouthwash is the first choice, the most reliable alternative is EO. No difference between CHX and EO with respect to gingivitis was observed
