Comparison of the Clinical and Microbiological Effects of CHX and HOCl Containing Mouthwashes
Sponsor: Baskent University
Summary
This study compared two mouthwashes, containing hypochlorous acid (HOCl) or chlorhexidine (CHX), for their effects on dental plaque accumulation, gum bleeding, tooth staining, and bacteria in dental plaque. Participants used each mouthwash during a separate four-day period, with a washout period between treatments. Participants also evaluated their experience with each mouthwash using a questionnaire.
