METHODS: 110 schoolchildren were randomly assigned to the test group (treated with herbal mouthwash -Anacyclus pyrenthrum DC, Punica granutum (pericarp), Capparis spinosa (root bark), and Quercus infectoria Oliv (galls)) and the control group (treated with 0.2 % Chlorhexidine Mouthwash) for 30-days. The response was assessed by DMFT, Salivary pH, Oral hygiene index-simplified (OHI-S), Plaque index (Loe & Silness) (PI), Plaque index simplified (O\'Leary et al., 1972) (PI-S), Gingival Index (Löe-Silness) (GI), and Bleeding on probing (BOP) on baseline and 30th day GI and PI were further assessed on 60th, 90th and 120th days to determine the sustainable effect of the intervention.
RESULTS: After treatment, Mean OHI-S, PI, PI-S, GI and BOP significantly reduced on the 30th day from baseline (p ≤ 0.001) in both groups. After discontinuing intervention, both groups showed significantly lower PI and GI scores on the 120th day from baseline. (p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed that prepared mouthwash is safe and significantly effective in maintaining oral health, and it could be used as an adjunct to mechanical oral hygiene measures.
方法:将110名学童随机分配到测试组(用草药漱口水-AnacyccluspyrenthrumDC治疗,Punicagranutum(pericarp),刺山梨(根树皮),和Oliv(galls)和对照组(用0.2%氯己定漱口水处理)30天。反应由DMFT评估,唾液pH值,口腔卫生指数简化(OHI-S),斑块指数(Loe&Silness)(PI),斑块指数简化(O'Leary等人。,1972)(PI-S),牙龈指数(Löe-Silness)(GI),基线和第30天的探查出血(BOP),第60天进一步评估GI和PI,第90天和第120天确定干预的持续效果。
结果:治疗后,意思是OHI-S,PI,PI-S,在第30天,两组的GI和BOP均较基线显着降低(p≤0.001)。停止干预后,两组患者在第120天的PI和GI评分均显著低于基线.(p<0.001)。
结论:这项研究表明,配制的漱口水在维持口腔健康方面是安全有效的,它可以用作机械口腔卫生措施的辅助手段。
