Brief summary

The present study aims to evaluate and compare the effect of Zamzam water as mouthwashes in high caries-risk patients regarding: i. Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) count. ii. Oral pH. After 3 and 6 months interval.

Detailed description

The present study aims to evaluate and compare the effect of Zamzam water mouthwashes in high caries-risk patients regarding: i. Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) count. ii. Oral pH. all patients will be into two groups; The first group will use Zamzam water mouthwash for a six months with other preventive protocols including fissure sealants and preventive restorations wherever needed, while the second group will undergo preventive protocols only. During these six months, patients will be reassessed at three and six-month intervals regarding S. mutans count, oral pH, and caries risk level.
