Investigating the effect of two types of flavored chewing gum (Action and Biodent) on salivary pH and volume

assessment the effect of two types of flavored chewing gum (Action and Biodent) on salivary pH and volume

Clinical trial with control group, double blind, randomized, phase 2, sample size 60

This simple double blind (analyzer, volunteer)clinical trial study performed on 20-30 years-old Zahedan dental students. From study subjects asked to refrain from eating and drinking 90 minutes before the test.The minimum time interval between Action gum and Biodent should be 1 day. Before consuming , unstimulated saliva is collected within 3 minutes and every 60 seconds, one hour before and after consumption, half an hour later, re-sampling is done 1, 5 and 10 minutes after consuming Biodent flavored gum in separate tubes, and pH of saliva is measured with a pH meter. Then the consumption of Biodent chewing gum is stopped and on the second day non-irritating saliva is collected before consumption and one hour after consumption of flavored action chewing gum, within 3 minutes and every 60 seconds and half an hour later re-sampling 1, 5 and 10 minutes after consuming a piece of gum, saliva is measured in separate tubes. The resulting information is recorded

dental students aged 20 - 30 year old Inclusion criteria : No systemic disease, no history of drug use in the past 3 months No infection or acute or chronic dental or periodontal abscess No salivary gland disorders such as sjogren, stones, infection, neoplasm No histories of radiotherapy, tobacco use and drugs Do not use intraoral devices such as orthodontic plaque No oral lesions and no periodontal problems Exclusion criteria: uncooperate the age under 20 and over 30 years

The Effect of action and biodent flavored gum consumption on the dental caries decreasing-salivary ph

Random assignment of participants to two groups is done by simple randomization method. In this way, After referring people, one of them will be assigned to intervention group 1 and the other to intervention group 2

he participant and analyzer do not know the type of consumables and the consumables are numbered as 1 , 2.The substance is given to the participant in a same cover with a coding and the analyzer records information only based on the desired code

There is no further information
