About this study

Official title: Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of a Regimen Including Rinsing With an Alcohol Free Mouthwash Containing CPC+Zn as Compared to Dental Flossing and Brushing and a Regimen Including Rising With an Essential Oils Containing Alcohol Mouthwash in Reducing Dental Plaque and Gingivitis.

This is a Phase III, randomized, one-center, parallel group, double blinded, clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of an alcohol-free mouthwash containing CPC+Zn as compared to dental flossing and to rising with an essential oils containing alcohol mouthwash in reducing dental plaque and gingivitis. One hundred and twenty participants, aged between 18 and 65 years, will be included and followed for 12 weeks.

Read the detailed description

This clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a regimen including an alcohol-free mouthwash containing CPC+Zn as compared to dental flossing and brushing and to a regimen including a rinsing with an essential oils containing alcohol mouthwash in reducing dental plaque and gingivitis. This is a Phase III, randomized, one-center, parallel group, double blinded, involving 120 participants, aged 18 to 65. Subjects will be allocated into 3 groups: one - using the CPC+Zn mouthwash, another using the essential oils mouthwash and a control group using dental floss. Each group will also use a fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristle toothbrush twice daily over 12 weeks. The primary efficacy variable is the reduction of gingival inflammation also Probing Depth, Bleeding on Probing, and a Plaque Index will be accessed. Subjects will undergo baseline, 4-week, and 12-week evaluations, with data analyzed using ANCOVA to assess the efficacy and safety of the products. Adverse events and compliance will be closely monitored, with strict confidentiality maintained for all participants. The study rigorous design aims to provide comprehensive insights into the effectiveness of these oral hygiene regimens.

What is being measured

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

  1. Modified Gingival Index

    The Modified Gingival Index (MGI) is used to evaluate the severity of gingivitis by measuring the extent of gingival inflammation. It categorizes gingival health/inflammation on a scale from 0 to 4, where 0 signifies normal gingiva with no inflammation, and 4 indicates severe inflammation characterized by erythema, edema, and spontaneous bleeding.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Turesky modification of Quigley-Hein Plaque Index

    The Turesky modification of the Quigley-Hein Plaque Index is a method for assessing dental plaque accumulation by scoring plaque presence on six surfaces of each tooth on a scale from 0 to 5.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Bleeding on probing

    Bleeding on probing (BOP) is a diagnostic technique used to assess gingival inflammation by gently probing the gum tissue; the presence of bleeding indicates inflammation and potential periodontal disease.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Probing depth

    Probing depth measures the distance between the gingival margin and the bottom of the periodontal pocket using a calibrated periodontal probe, indicating the severity of periodontal disease.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Mouthwash CPC+Zn+F, Essential oils mouthwash and Dental floss in people with Gingival Bleeding and Plaque Induced Gingival Disease, run by Colgate Palmolive at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Modified Gingival Index (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2025.
