Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is an anionic detergent that has been used as the major or sole surfactant in most dentifrices. But it is known to local irritating factor to oral mucosa and skin and results in many side effects. This study was to compare the effects of SLS-free dentifrice and SLS-containing dentifrice in patients with recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group I

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

sodium lauryl sulfate

Intervention Type OTHER

The subjects were divided into three groups, each of which comprised 30 randomly assigned subjects: group I used SLS-free(a commercially available SLS-free dentifrice(Wiconi® dentifrice) and SLS-A (a dentifrice containing 1.5%; Wiconi® dentifrice + 1.5% SLS). The subjects used one of the two assigned dentifrices for 8 weeks, and then the other for the following 8 weeks. The order of the dentifrices used was selected at random, and there was a 2-week washout period between the two phases, during which the subject used the same dentifrice as they used before participating in this study. The subjects were asked to brush their teeth using their usual toothbrushing method with the dentifrice and toothbrush supplied.

Group II

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

sodium lauryl sulfate

Intervention Type OTHER

The subjects were divided into three groups, each of which comprised 30 randomly assigned subjects: group II used SLS-A (a dentifrice containing 1.5%; Wiconi® dentifrice + 1.5% SLS) and SLS-B (a commercially available 1.5% SLS-containing dentifrice). The subjects used one of the two assigned dentifrices for 8 weeks, and then the other for the following 8 weeks. The order of the dentifrices used was selected at random, and there was a 2-week washout period between the two phases, during which the subject used the same dentifrice as they used before participating in this study. The subjects were asked to brush their teeth using their usual toothbrushing method with the dentifrice and toothbrush supplied.

Group III

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

sodium lauryl sulfate

Intervention Type OTHER

The subjects were divided into three groups, each of which comprised 30 randomly assigned subjects: group III used SLS-free (a commercially available SLS-free dentifrice (Wiconi® dentifrice), and SLS-B (a commercially available 1.5% SLS-containing dentifrice). The subjects used one of the two assigned dentifrices for 8 weeks, and then the other for the following 8 weeks. The order of the dentifrices used was selected at random, and there was a 2-week washout period between the two phases, during which the subject used the same dentifrice as they used before participating in this study.
