Efficacy of Persica mouthwash on plaque-induced gingivitis

Background and Objective: Gingivitis is the most common type of periodontal diseases, established by local factors such as bacterial plaque and recovers by mechanical and chemical plaque control thoroughly. Using Persica mouthwash, containing extract of Salvadora Persica (Miswak) is one of the chemi...

Using Persica mouthwash, containing extract of Salvadora Persica (Miswak) is one of the chemical plaque control methods accomplished in this study on gingivitis-involved patients. Methods: This experimental study was performed on 60 patients with moderate gingivitis. Patients were divided into 2 equal groups (Case and control groups). Both groups were trained oral health education. The case group was also asked to rinse their mouth with Persica mouthwash. Gingival index, plaque index and bleeding index and probing pocket depth were measured at baseline, 2 and 5 weeks after beginning of the study. Data were analyzed by paired T-test and repeated measurement and P<0.05 was considered significant. Findings: Gingival index, plaque index and bleeding index in case group was significantly lower than control group (P<0.05). Gingival index reduced 52% in case group and 9% in control group and plaque index reduced 47% in case group and 11% in control group and bleeding index reduced 56% in case group and 9.5% in control group. The pocket depth reducing percentage in case group (7.3%) was also higher than the control group (0.9%) five weeks after beginning the study. Conclusion: According to the results of Persica mouthwash in case group and its effect on reducing periodontal indices without any reported side effects, using this mouthwash in gingivitis involved patients is recommended.B AmooianM SilakhoriBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlemouthwashsalvadora persicagingivitisMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 6, Iss 5, Pp 7-11 (2004)
