Periodontal Health and Sodium Bicarbonate Toothpaste

Sponsor: University of Plymouth

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether sodium bicarbonate fluoride toothpaste can help maintain periodontal health in adults who have undergone non-surgical periodontal treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: Does daily use of toothpaste affect the following outcomes: clinical oral health (plaque scores, gingival bleeding scores and periodontal pocket depths), salivary biochemical markers and the oral microbiome. Outcomes measures will be recorded at 0,3, and 6 months, during which time participants will receive either the treatment or placebo toothpaste and undergo oral hygiene instruction and PMPR over 6 months.
