Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Materials and Methods: Quadrants 1-3 or 2-4 were randomly allocated to the test group (brushing without dentifrice) or control group (brushing with dentifrice). After 72 hours of cessation of oral hygiene, Quigley \& Hein (Turesky) plaque index was assessed before and after brushing by a calibrated and blind examiner. Overtime and intergroup comparisons were performed by paired sample t test.

Toothbrushing With Dentifrice
After 72 hours of absence oral hygiene, patients performed toothbrushing with common dentifrice.
Toothbrushing With Dentifrice
The participants were instructed to interrupt any chemical and/or mechanical oral hygiene procedure for 72 hours. Dental plaque was stained by a 2% erithrosin solution, followed by a mouth rinsing with water for 1 minute. Next, the set of dental quadrants (1-3 and 2-4) were randomly allocated to experimental groups by the flip of a coin. One of the sets was brushed with multi bristle brush without the use of dentifrice and the second set was brushed with multi bristle brush using dentifrice. Toothbrushing was performed by the individual's regular technique timed. Two minutes was used for each set. After toothbrushing, the dental biofilm was again stained and evaluated by the same examiner, who was blind to the quadrants brushed with or without dentifrice.
