Protocol summary
Study aim
Determining the effect of daily use of post-biotic toothpaste on salivary IgA in children 6 to 12 years old
Design
Institutional-based, parallel groups, triple-blind, randomized clinical trial. Assignment of patients to study groups will be done using the random block method and using 6 blocks.
Settings and conduct
The research site will be the School of Dentistry of the Ahvaz Jundshapur University of Medical Sciences. Sampling will be performed by the non-probability method. Outcomes are measured before the intervention. Participants will be randomly divided into intervention and control groups and after the intervention, the outcomes will be measured again.
In this study, participants, the person evaluating the results and analyzer of the data will be blinded.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: systemically healthy 6- to 12-year-old children with a mixed dental system
Exclusion criteria: the presence of inflammatory disease and use of antibiotics and probiotic products
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Children in this group brush their teeth twice a day for 30 days, using postbiotic toothpaste.
Control group: Children in this group brush their teeth twice a day for 30 days, using toothpaste similar to the intervention group. The only difference between the toothpaste used by this group is the lack of postbiotic.
Main outcome variables
Salivary IgA level measured by ELISA kit; Saliva pH measured by pH indicator strips
General information
Reason for update
In the intervention groups section, the name of the microorganism that will be used in the toothpaste was mistakenly written wrong.
