Brief Summary

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

The aim of the study is to compare the caries-preventive effect of the test and control toothpaste in order to proof the non-inferiority of the test toothpaste compared to the control.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* A minimum of 10 healthy molars and premolars (DMFS of these teeth = 0)
* Willingness to use an electric (powered) toothbrush
* Willingness to use interdental floss
* Willingness to have bitewing radiographs taken
* Willingness to undergo an oral examination by an intraoral camera (DIAGNOcam)

Exclusion Criteria

* Untreated caries \[clinical investigation and analysis with an intraoral camera (DIAGNOcam)\] (→ unsuitable subjects with one or two untreated caries in need of a restoration can become eligible after restorative therapy. If there are three or more untreated caries patients will be excluded)
* Xerostomia (medication, radiation, disease induced)
* Chemo/radiation therapy
* Physical or mental disability which prevents proper oral health care
* Orthodontic treatment
* Severe periodontitis at the Baseline Visit (pocket depth on at least one tooth ≥ 5.5 mm)
* Known hypersensitivity to one of the ingredients of the toothpastes to be tested
* Regular medication intake interfering with salivary function or flow
* Current pregnancy, the wish to become pregnant, the suspicion of being pregnant, or breastfeeding or in the course of the study
* 3 or more carious lesions/restorations in last 36 months until Baseline Visit
* Teeth missing due to caries in last 36 months until Baseline Visit
