Beskrivning
The objective of the present research is to evaluate the efficacy of a lotus leaf mouth wash in management of plaque induced gingivitis.
Study design: 30 systemically healthy volunteers will be randomly allocated into two arms
Arm A: Lotus leaf mouth wash (aqueous) group [Test group] Arm B: Placebo mouth wash group [Control group]
All the volunteers are instructed to refrain from tooth brushing 24 hours before the examination. Clinical parameters (plaque index, bleeding index and gingival index)will be measured and the plaque samples are collected from subjects from each group for microbiological analysis. All the participants will undergo scaling, and they were instructed to refrain from tooth cleaning procedures and were advised to use the prescribed mouth wash twice daily for 4 days. All volunteers were recalled on 5th day for clinical and microbiological analysis. Statistical analysis and results are awaited
