Exploring Toothbrushing Duration Among Adults: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Aim There is a need for greater understanding of the average brushing time among individuals. Since the average brushing time remains unclear, this study involves a systematic review to assess this aspect of oral hygiene practices and how it has evolved over the years. Material and Methods The PubMed‐MEDLINE and Cochrane‐CENTRAL databases were

Implantoplasty Positively Influences Biofilm Removal During Toothbrush: An In Vitro Study
ABSTRACT Purpose To analyse the effect of implantoplasty on the efficacy of brushing dental implants. Methods Acrylic hemi‐arches were made to simulate a horizontal bone loss condition in an implant in position 46, exposing 3 mm of its cervical intra‐osseous portion. Implantoplasty was performed on the implant surfaces of the test group, and no surface

In situ Fluoride Uptake from Fluoride Dentifrices by Carious Enamel
A series of studies was performed to measure fluoride deposition in incipient caries-like lesions in enamel specimens contained in functional partial dentures in panelists who used fluoride dentifrices for periods ranging from two to nine weeks.

ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to assess the antigingivitis and antiplaque efficacy of a 2% chlorhexidine (CHX)‐impregnated dental floss in adults with gingivitis. Methods This randomised clinical study included 42 patients diagnosed with gingivitis. They were randomly allocated into three groups: no interdental cleaning (NIC) group, which did not

Sensitive Method for Measuring the Relative Abrasiveness of Dentifrices
A procedure involving the use of a tritiumlabeled acrylic strip was developed for the rapid, accurate, and reproducible evaluation of the abrasiveness of dentifrices. Comparisons were made of dentifrices widely sold in the United Kingdom (including some

Abrasion of 6 dentifrices measured by vertical scanning interference microscopy [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The abrasion of dentifrices is well recognized to eliminate the dental plaque. The aims of this study were to characterize the abrasive powders of 6 dentifrices (3 toothpastes and 3 toothpowders) and to measure the abrasion on a test surface ...

Behavioural Determinants of Post‐Brushing Dental Plaque Levels: A Video‐Based Analysis
ABSTRACT Objectives Toothbrushing remains the most widely practiced method for dental plaque removal. However, evidence‐based guidance on optimal brushing method, duration, toothbrush bristle wear, and dentifrice quantity is still insufficient. This study aimed to identify behavioural factors associated with post‐brushing dental plaque levels using ...

Short Communication: In vitro evaluation of the abrasiveness of acidic dentifrices
AIM: This in vitro study evaluated the abrasiveness of acidic fluoride (F) dentifrices with different F concentrations on bovine enamel. METHODS: Enamel blocks (4.0 x 4.0 mm2, n=120) were selected according to their surface microhardness and divided into

Effects of Regular and Low-fluoride Dentifrices on Plaque Fluoride
Previous studies have indicated that the use of low-fluoride dentifrices could lead to proportionally higher plaque fluoride levels when compared with conventional dentifrices.
