Inclusion criteria

* Male and female subjects, ages 30-70. * Availability for the six-month duration of the clinical research study. * Good general health. * Subjects who have lost teeth for periodontal disease reasons and who have been restored with implants. * Minimum of 5 remaining teeth and a minimum of 2 implants. * Initial evaluation of the gingival and peri-implant mucosal tissues by determining full mouth bleeding on probing. * Initial plaque evaluation by determining full mouth presence/absence of plaque. * Signed Informed Consent Form.

Exclusion criteria

* Tumor(s) of the soft or hard tissues of the oral cavity. * Untreated periodontal disease (purulent exudate, tooth mobility, and/or extensive loss or periodontal attachment or alveolar bone). * Carious lesions requiring immediate restorative treatment. * Uncontrolled Diabetes * Use of antibiotics any time during the one month prior to entry into the study. * Untreated peri-implantitis. * Participation in any other clinical research study or test panel within the three months prior to entry into the study. * Pregnant women or women who are breast feeding. * History of allergies to personal care/consumer products or their ingredients. * Medical condition which prohibits not eating/drinking for up to 2 hours. * Current alcohol or drug abuse. * Systemic or local disease conditions that would compromise post-operative healing. * Regular use of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Bleeding on Probing6 monthsPercentage of Bleeding Scale: The bleeding sites are identified by either a 0 or 1. (0=no bleeding & 1= bleeding) The number of spots between teeth that bleed are divided by number of spots between teeth that are scored.
Mean Pocket Depth6 MonthsMeasurement scale: 0 millimeter measurement= no pocket depth. 3, 4, 5, & 6 millimeter are indications of deeper Pocket depth.
Mean Percentage of Plaque Scores6 MonthsMean Percentage (%) of dental plaque on all tooth surfaces, including implants and natural teeth. Plaque Scale is 0=no plaque and 1= dental plaque present. Percentage is derived from sum of all plaque scores divided by the number of tooth surfaces scored.
