Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a decrease in the plaque index after a period of four days of use of the product, verified by means of the Quigley-Hein plaque index modified by Turesky (Turesky et al., 1970), from the observation of a difference mean scores after the intervention was applied. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a decrease in the gingival index after a period of four days of use of the product, verified through the Modified Gingival Bleeding Index, based on the observation of an occurrence of the average of scores after the pre- and post-intervention measurements have been performed.;A questionnaire will be applied where all participants will be able to express their opinion regarding the product used for mouthwash. Subjects will be asked about product taste, taste change, wearing comfort, taste duration, and perceived plaque control. Based on SLOT et al. (2010), the Visual Analog Scale (VS) will be used. This scale is represented by an uncalibrated line of 10 cm in length, where participants will mark a point referring to the negative answer (0) on the left and referring to the positive answer (10) on the right end of the line (SLOT et al., 2010 ). It is expected that there will be no change in the appreciation and perception of individuals after using the substances used. | — |
