Effectiveness of Toothpaste Tablets on Plaque, Gingival Health and Caries Experiences: A 6-week Randomized Controlled Trial
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of toothpaste tablets when compared to conventional dentifrices in removing plaque. Methods: 50 participants are randomized into two groups: Denttabs toothpaste tablets (T) and Colgate's Cavity Protection toothpaste (P). Both groups utilize their assigned dentifrice for 6 weeks. A pre and post-assessment measures the Gingival Index (GI) and Plaque Index (PI) and Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT). A questionnaire on the use of the product is distributed at the end of the study.
