| At the end of this research, it is expected that the addition of the Anti-Discoloration System (ADS) will reduce or eliminate tooth surface pigmentation resulting from chlorhexidine use, while maintaining antibacterial activity to control plaque and gingival inflammation post-operatively in third molar extraction surgeries. The plaque index will be assessed using the Silness and Löe test (1966). The color of teeth eleven and twenty-one will be digitally evaluated using the Vita EasyShade spectrophotometer (Vita-Zahnfabrik, Bad Säckingen, Germany), with measurements compatible with the Vita Classical shade guide (Vita-Zahnfabrik, Bad Säckingen, Germany). Color differences (final minus initial) between groups will be compared using means and standard deviations. Gingival tissue healing in the lower third molar extraction area will be evaluated based on the model proposed by Cortellini et al. (2008), assessing inflamed tissue around sutures, gingival edema, and presence of granulation tissue on a scale from zero (absent) to one (present). Saliva collection for microbiological analysis will occur at three time points: pre-surgery, on the seventh day, and on the fifteenth day of mouthwash use, to compare bacterial colony counts before and after use. Statistical analyses will be conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics version 21. | — |
