Brief Summary

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

The aims of this study are: To compare salivary pH changes and stimulation efficacy of two different Gustatory Stimulants of Salivation (GSSS) in patients with Primary Sjögren Syndrome (PSS); To evaluate Primary Sjögren syndrome (PSS) impact and gustatory stimulants of salivary secretion (GSSS) on oral health related quality of life measured by a Portuguese version of Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) and specific Xerostomia assessment questionnaires.

The Products to be used are the Xeros® Dentaid system and a citric based mouthwash.

Study Groups

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

Xeros Group - Lozenge

Application of Xeros system for 15 days. Lozenge (Malic acid 28.56 mg, Xylitol 421,98 mg, Sodium fluoride 0.55 mg) or Spray (Malic acid 1%, Xylitol 10%, Sodium fluoride 0.05%) 4 times a day. Effects on Xerostomia and Quality of Life were determined before and after application by answering the questionnaires.

Effects of lozenge on hyposalivation and pH variation determined by saliva collection with pre-weighed falcon and a ph electrode at predetermined times during a 20 minute period.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Xeros

Intervention Type DRUG

Mouthwash group

Application of citric acid based Mouthwash (0,33% citric acid) for 15 days four times a day. Effects on Xerostomia and Quality of Life were determined before and after application by answering the questionnaires.

Effects of mouthwash on hyposalivation and pH variation determined by saliva collection with pre-weighed falcon and a pH electrode at predetermined times during a 20 minute period.
