Study summary

A clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a mouthwash containing Hydrogen Peroxide, Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycine in the prevention and management of complications associated gingivitis by film forming action.

Read the detailed description

50 subjects will be enrolled, who show with gingivitis caused by accumulation of plaque and/or tartar selected consecutively. Subsequently, subjects will be equally divided and randomized into the test group or control group.

During the three examinations, the subjects will undergo the collection of bleeding and plaque indices according to Silness J \& Loe H 3,4. Four surfaces per tooth (vestibular, lingual/palatal, mesial, distal) will be considered.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Bleeding index

    Subjects will undergo the measurement of bleeding index according to Silness J \& Loe. Four surfaces per tooth (vestibular, lingual/palatal, mesial, distal) will be considered. Data will be collected based on four possible clinical conditions: Code 0: absence of bleeding during probing depth measurement; Code 1: absence of bleeding during probing depth measurement, presence of redness and oedema; Code 2: presence of bleeding during probing depth measurement with redness and oedema; Code 3: spontaneous bleeding Higher score means worse outcome.

    Time frame: 0, 3, 30 days

  2. Change in Plaque index

    Subjects will undergo the measurement of plaque index according to Silness J \& Loe. Four surfaces per tooth (vestibular, lingual/palatal, mesial, distal) will be considered. Data will be collected based on four possible clinical conditions: Code 0: absence of plaque; Code 1: presence of plaque not visible to the naked eye but evidenced by the periodontal probe passage; Code 2: presence of plaque at the level of the gingival margin; Code 3: abundant presence of plaque at the level of the gingival margin and/or the rest of the dental surface. The sum of the values of the four surfaces examined, divided by the very number of surfaces, will give the plaque and bleeding index value for each individual tooth. The sum of the indices of each examined tooth divided by the total number of teeth examined will indicate the overall plaque and bleeding index of the subject at that time.

    Time frame: 0, 3, 30 days

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Jun 2020; primary completion for Jul 2020, 1 month later.

Of 33 phase 3 interventional studies under Gingivitis, half reached primary completion within 3 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 2 and three quarters within 6. This study's planned 1 month is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 18, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
