Sample size
Target sample size: 51
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization of samples is done using sealed envelopes. Inside the envelopes, half of the samples contain an A card and half of the samples contain a B card, and the samples randomly pick up a card from the envelope. Each specimen that removes card A will floss its right quadrant (quadrant) with chlorhexidine floss and its two left quadrant with conventional floss, and each specimen that removes card B will floss its two right quadrant with conventional floss and two left quadrants will floss with chlorhexidine floss.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
Both types of floss are selected with similar packages and covered with the same labels (sample blinding). The analyst of the study data and the person measuring the indexes (researcher) do not know in which group the samples are.
