Fluoride Adverse Reaction
Conditions
Brief summary
This randomized clinical trial will be conducted to investigate the efficacy of an innovative tooth cleaning agent extra virgin coconut oil with peppermint essential oil by oil pulling and toothbrushing with oil on reducing salivary Streptococcus mutans levels, tooth decay and plaque buildup versus on the counter toothpaste in high caries risk patients.
Detailed description
Everyday use of dental health care products has increased. Therefore, there is a legitimately increased interest of healthcare clinicians and consumers in substances added to the toothpaste with the intention to improve their performance and potential benefits and risks that may arise from it. As there are harmful products in the toothpaste for instance: (Fluoride, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), Sodium Saccharin and Triclosan which is assumed that it because local reaction includes oral mucosa irritation and desquamation (stomatitis, glossitis, gingivitis, buccal mucositis), while systemic ones are allergic and acute or chronic toxic reactions. Rational Harmful products in the toothpaste for instance: (Fluoride, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), Sodium Saccharin and Triclosan which is assumed that it because local reaction includes oral mucosa irritation and desquamation (stomatitis, glossitis, gingivitis, buccal mucositis), while systemic ones are allergic and acute or chronic toxic reactions.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in the actual chance to avoid new lesion will be assessed | T0: Baseline. T1: After one month. T2: After three months | The Measuring test: Cariogram Model (Karabekiroğlu et al 2017), The Measuring units : Percentage |
| Change in the bacterial count will be assessed | T0: Baseline. T1: After one month. T2: After three months | The measuring test:Colony forming unit, The measuring units : Cfu/mm2 (Prabakar et al., 2018) |
| Change in the salivary pH will be assessed | T0: Baseline. T1: After one month. T2: After three months | The measuring test: Digital pH meter, The measuring unit : Scoring system, (Sondos et al., 2019) (ordinal) |
| Change in the Plaque index will be assessed Löe-Silness (Loe 1963) | T0: Baseline. T1: After one month. T2: After three months | The measuring unit : Plaque index The oral hygiene and plaque amount will be estimated using a mirror and graduated periodontal probe in accordance with Silness and Löe plaque index, which assessed the amount of plaque in the cervical part of the tooth.The Plaque Index System * (0) No plaque * (1) A film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth. The plaque may be seen in situ only after application of disclosing solution or by using the probe on the tooth surface. * (2) Moderate accumulation of soft deposit s within the gingival pocket, or the tooth and gingival margin which can be seen with the naked eye. * (3) Abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin. Löe-Silness (Loe 1963) (Sreenivasan et al.,2016), The Measuring units : Scoring system (ordinal) |
