Official title: Pilot Study on Oral Health Status Chairside Mouthrinse Test in Finnish Adolescents and Cost Effectiveness of the Test

The aim is to study whether participants at risk could be identified using an aMMP-8 chairside mouth rinse test and to study if oral health and health behaviour is linked to the test result in Finnish adolescents.

Read the detailed description

Adolescents (14-15-year-olds) are randomly divided to control group and test group. Chairside mouth rinse test for aMMP-8 is performed for the test group. Two groups are compared with each other.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. aMMP-8 test

    Mouth rinse samples are analysed by method for chair-side diagnostic testing: the aMMP-8 specific lateral-flow point-of-care (PoC)/chair-side test (PerioSafe®, Dentognostics GmbH, Jena, Germany). The result is provided in 5 minutes and is graded by eye as positive or negative. One line means that the test is negative but successfully done and two lines the test is positive.

    Measured: 1 year
