evaluation of periodontal risk factors with quantitative light induced fluorescence based fluorescent Plaque Index in comparison to radiographic and oral health habit scoring a retrospective case study
Sensors, 2021Co-Authors: Jinyoung Choi, Sae Rom Lee, Seonghun KimAbstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate periodontal risk factors with oral health habits and fluorescent Plaque Index (FPI) using quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) images, and to evaluate their effect on the degree of radiographic bone loss (RBL). Selected were 276 patients over 19 years of age to complete the questionnaire for oral health habit and take QLF images, periapical and panoramic radiographs. Oral health habit score, age, and sex showed a statistically significant correlation with FPI. FPI showed a lower value as the oral health habit score increased and the age decreased. Moreover, females showed lower FPI values than did males. RBL showed a statistically significant positive correlation with age but did not show any correlation with oral health habit scores and sex. There was no correlation between FPI and RBL. The results of this study suggest that the clinical use of QLF allows Plaque detection by non-invasive procedures and can aid in a more objective estimation for oral hygiene status.

clinical assessment of an automated fluorescent Plaque Index scoring with quantitative light induced fluorescence
Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2020Co-Authors: Seok Woo Park, Dono Kahharova, Joo Young Lee, Eun Song Lee, Elbert De Josselin De Jong, Bakhtinur Khudanov, Baek Il KimAbstract:Abstract Objective The aims of this study were to evaluate the clinical applicability of a new fluorescent Plaque Index scoring (FPI) with the Turesky modified Quigley-Hein Plaque Index (mQH) and to evaluate its relationship with Plaque maturity. Methods In total 69 subjects participated in this study. White-light and fluorescent images of anterior teeth were acquired using a Qraycam (AIOBIO, Seoul, Korea). FPI was obtained from fluorescent images using the proprietary software (Q-Ray v.1.39, Inspektor Research System BV, Amsterdam, The Netherlands). Teeth were stained with a two-tone disclosing agent. mQH was used to manually score the combined red and blue disclosed Plaque (Combi-mQH) and blue disclosed Plaque (Blue-mQH) with the white-light images. Linear relationships between FPI and Combi-mQH (or Blue-mQH) were evaluated by using simple linear regression analysis. Differences of Combi-mQH (or Blue-mQH) with respect to FPI scores were statistically evaluated by using ANOVA with Duncan post hoc correction. Results FPI showed a moderate positive correlation with Combi-mQH (r = 0.66, P Conclusion In this study we found that the FPI scoring system can be used to detect Plaque and quantitatively distinguish Plaque levels. In addition, FPI was determined to be useful in clinic because of its ability to detect and distinguish old and mature Plaque.

The Journal of clinical dentistry, 2010Co-Authors: Surrendra Singh, William Devizio, P Chaknis, M E Petrone, Fotinos S Panagakos, H M ProskinAbstract:Objective To assess the efficacy ofa dentifrice containing 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride for controlling established gingivitis and supragingival Plaque relative to that of a dentifrice containing 0.454% stannous fluoride, sodium hexametaphosphate, and zinc lactate, and a dentifrice containing 0.243% sodium fluoride as a negative control. Methods Following a baseline examination for gingivitis and supragingival Plaque, qualifying adult male and female subjects from the Piscataway, NJ, USA area were randomized into three dentifrice groups. Subjects were instructed to brush their teeth twice daily (morning and evening) for one minute with their assigned dentifrice and a soft-bristled toothbrush. Examinations for gingivitis and supragingival Plaque were repeated after six weeks of product use. Results One-hundred and seventy-one (171) subjects complied with the protocol and completed the study. Relative to the group using the dentifrice with 0.243% sodium fluoride alone, the 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and supragingival Plaque Index scores of 25.3% and 33.0%, respectively, after six weeks of product use. Similarly, relative to the group using the 0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice, the 0.454% stannous fluoride, sodium hexametaphosphate, and zinc lactate dentifrice group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and Plaque Index scores of 8.1% and 14.1% after six weeks of product use. Further, relative to the 0.454% stannous fluoride, sodium hexametaphosphate, and zinc lactate dentifrice group, the 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and Plaque Index scores of 18.7% and 22%, respectively. Conclusion The overall results of this double-blind clinical study support the conclusion that a dentifrice containing 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride is efficacious for the control of established gingivitis and supragingival Plaque as compared to a regular fluoride dentifrice, and that it provides a greater level of efficacy for the control of gingivitis and supragingival Plaque than does a dentifrice containing 0.454% stannous fluoride, sodium hexametaphosphate, and zinc lactate.

METHODS Following a baseline examination for gingivitis and supragingival Plaque, qualifying adult male and female subjects from the Mississauga, Ontario, Canada area were randomized into three dentifrice groups. Subjects were instructed to brush their teeth twice daily (morning and evening) for one minute with their assigned dentifrice and a soft-bristled toothbrush. Examinations for gingivitis and supragingival Plaque were repeated after six weeks of product use. RESULTS One-hundred eighty-two (182) subjects complied with the protocol and completed the study. Relative to the 0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice group, the 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and supragingival Plaque Index scores of 26.5% and 29.4%, respectively, after six weeks of product use. Similarly, relative to the 0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice group, the 0.454% stannous fluoride/sodium hexametaphosphate/zinc lactate dentifrice group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and Plaque Index scores of 12.7% and 12.6%, respectively, after six weeks of product use. Further, relative to the 0.454% stannous fluoride/sodium hexametaphosphate/zinc lactate dentifrice group, the 0.3% triclosan/2.0% PVM/MA copolymer/0.243% sodium fluoride dentifrice group exhibited statistically significant reductions in gingival Index and Plaque Index scores of 15.8% and 19.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION The overall results of this double-blind clinical study support the conclusion that a dentifrice containing 0.3% triclosan, 2.0% PVM/MA copolymer, and 0.243% sodium fluoride is efficacious for the control of established gingivitis and supragingival Plaque, and that it provides a greater level of efficacy for the control of gingivitis and supragingival Plaque than does a dentifrice containing 0.454% stannous fluoride, sodium hexametaphosphate, and zinc lactate.

The Journal of clinical dentistry, 2009Co-Authors: M F Silva, William Devizio, B Stewart, H M ProskinAbstract:Objective The objective of this independent, double-blind, parallel, six-week clinical study was to assess the efficacy of a commercially available mouthrinse containing 0.05% cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) for controlling established dental Plaque and gingivitis relative to that of a control mouthrinse without CPC. Methods Adult male and female subjects from the Maceio, Brazil area reported to the clinical facility, after having refrained from any oral hygiene procedures for 12 hours, and from eating, drinking, and smoking for four hours, for an assessment of the oral soft and hard tissues, and for a baseline gingivitis and dental Plaque evaluation. Qualifying subjects were randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups, and were provided with their assigned mouthrinse, and an adult soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste for home use. Over the six-week period of home use, during which there were no restrictions regarding diet or smoking habits, subjects were instructed to brush their teeth for one minute twice daily with the supplied toothbrush and a commercially available fluoride toothpaste, to rinse their mouths with water after brushing, and then to rinse with their assigned mouthrinse for one minute before expectorating. The use of any other oral hygiene products or procedures, such as floss or interdental stimulators, was not permitted during the study. After six weeks of product use, subjects returned to the clinical facility, having followed the same restrictions with respect to oral-hygiene procedures, eating and drinking, as with the baseline visit, and the oral soft and hard tissue assessments and gingivitis and dental Plaque evaluations were repeated. Results One-hundred and ten subjects complied with the protocol and completed the study. With regard to supragingival Plaque, after six weeks of product use, the subjects using the 0.05% CPC mouthrinse exhibited statistically significant reductions from baseline in whole-mouth Plaque Index scores (32.1%), in Plaque Index scores measured at interproximal sites (31.3%), and in Plaque Severity Index scores (84.8%). Subjects using the control mouthrinse exhibited statistically significant reductions from baseline in whole-mouth Plaque Index scores (7.0%), in Plaque Index scores measured at interproximal sites (6.4%), and in Plaque Severity Index scores (24.5%). When compared to the control mouthrinse group, the 0.05% CPC mouthrinse group presented statistically significant greater reductions in whole-mouth Plaque Index scores (27.9%), in Plaque Index scores measured at interproximal sites (27.9%), and in Plaque Severity Index scores (81.1%) after six weeks of product use. With regard to gingivitis, after six weeks of product use, subjects using the 0.05% CPC mouthrinse exhibited statistically significant reductions from baseline in whole-mouth Gingival Index scores (25.0%), in Gingival Index scores measured at interproximal sites (25.3%), and in Gingivitis Severity Index scores (42.4%). Subjects using the control mouthrinse exhibited statistically significant reductions from baseline in whole-mouth Gingival Index scores (6.5%), in Gingival Index scores measured at interproximal sites (5.5%), and in Gingivitis Severity Index scores (11.6%). When compared to the control mouthrinse group, the 0.05% CPC mouthrinse group presented statistically significant greater reductions in whole-mouth Gingival Index scores (19.8%), in Gingival Index scores measured at interproximal sites (20.7%), and in Gingivitis Severity Index scores (35.5%) after six weeks of product use. Conclusion The results of this double-blind, parallel, six-week clinical study support the conclusion that a mouthrinse containing 0.05% CPC is efficacious for controlling established dental Plaque and gingivitis. As measurements were conducted 12 hours after product use, the results also demonstrate that the 0.5% CPC mouthrinse provides 12-hour protection against Plaque and gingivitis.

clinical investigation of the efficacy of a commercial mouthrinse containing 0 05 cetylpyridinium chloride in preventing dental Plaque
The Journal of clinical dentistry, 2009Co-Authors: Roberto Fraga Moreira Lotufo, William Devizio, B Stewart, Caroline Morini Calil, Hsu Shao Feng, Ricardo Takiy Sekiguchi, H M ProskinAbstract:OBJECTIVE The objective of this independent, double-blind, seven-day clinical study was to assess the efficacy of a commercially available mouthrinse containing 0.05% CPC for controlling dental Plaque relative to that of a control mouthrinse without 0.05% CPC. METHODS Adult male and female subjects from the San Juan, Puerto Rico area reported to the clinical facility, having refrained from any oral hygiene procedures for 12 hours, and from eating, drinking, and smoking for four hours, for an assessment of the oral soft and hard tissues and a baseline dental Plaque evaluation. Qualifying subjects were randomly assigned into one of the two treatment groups, and were provided with their assigned mouthrinse, an adult soft-bristled toothbrush, and a commercially available fluoride toothpaste for home use. Over the seven-day period of home use, during which there were no restrictions regarding diet or smoking habits, subjects were instructed to brush their teeth for one minute twice daily (morning and evening) with the toothbrush and toothpaste supplied, to rinse their mouths with water after brushing, and then to rinse with 15 ml of their assigned mouthrinse for one minute before expectorating. The use of other oral hygiene products or procedures, such as floss or interdental stimulators, was not permitted during the study. After seven days of product use, subjects returned to the clinical facility having followed the same restrictions with respect to oral hygiene procedures, eating, and drinking as prior to the baseline examination, and the oral soft and hard tissue assessments and dental Plaque evaluations were repeated. Comparisons between treatment groups with respect to baseline-adjusted Plaque Index scores at the seven-day examination were performed using Analyses of Covariance, p < or = 0.05. RESULTS Forty-eight subjects complied with the protocol and completed the study. Results demonstrated that, after seven days of product use and 12 hours after rinsing, both the CPC mouthrinse group and the control mouthrinse group exhibited statistically significant reductions in whole-mouth Plaque Index scores (25.3% and 6.6%, respectively), in Plaque Index scores measured at interproximal sites (51.3% and 32.9%, respectively), and in Plaque Severity Index scores (43.5% and 25.4%, respectively). Relative to the control mouthrinse, the 0.05% CPC mouthrinse group exhibited statistically significant greater reductions in whole-mouth Plaque scores (15.9%), in Plaque Index scores measured at interproximal sites (23%), and in Plaque Severity Index scores (17%). As the measurements were made 12 hours after final product use, the results also demonstrate that the CPC mouthrinse provides 12-hour protection against Plaque accumulation in individuals with existing Plaque. CONCLUSION The overall results of this double-blind clinical study support the conclusion that after seven days of product use, a mouthrinse containing 0.05% CPC provides significantly greater efficacy for reducing dental Plaque 12 hours after use, than does a control mouthrinse without 0.05% CPC.
