Journal ArticleDOI

Java project on periodontal diseases: a study on transmission of Porphyromonas gingivalis in a remote Indonesian population.

TL;DR: In this study population, vertical transmission of P. gingivalis has occurred within family units, most likely from parents to children.
Journal ArticleDOI

What is the effect of active ingredients in dentifrice on inhibiting the regrowth of overnight plaque? A systematic review.

TL;DR: Moderate‐quality evidence is demonstrated that brushing with an active‐ingredient dentif rice with stannous fluoride or triclosan does provide an added clinically relevant effect concerning plaque inhibition capabilities that surpass the effect of a regular sodium fluoride dentifrice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of a comfortable volume of mouthwash for rinsing

TL;DR: It can be concluded that 15 ml is perceived as the most comfortable volume in this single-blind, clinical trial with duplicate assessments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parotid salivary S-IgA antibodies during experimental gingivitis in smokers and non-smokers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether the differences in levels of parotid total secretory IgA (S-IgA) or SIgAs reactive with selected oral microorganisms could partially explain the increased gingival bleeding in smokers compared with non-smokers.
Journal ArticleDOI

A specific brushing sequence and plaque removal efficacy: a randomized split-mouth design

TL;DR: Using a manual toothbrush reduced the plaque scores between 55 and 58% with no difference between brushing from either the lingual or buccal aspect first, which is not supported by the outcome in this young student population.
