NCT07356869
Brief Summary:
This study aims to compare the efficacy of probiotic-based mouthwashes versus ethyl lauroyl arginate-containing mouthwashes in reducing Streptococcus mutans count, dental plaque accumulation, and salivary pH among a group of Egyptian schoolchildren.
Detailed Description:
Dental caries remains one of the most prevalent chronic infectious diseases among Egyptian schoolchildren, with Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) playing a primary etiological role due to its acidogenic and aciduric properties, which contribute to enamel demineralization and plaque formation.
Ethyl Lauroyl Arginate (LAE), a cationic surfactant derived from lauric acid and arginine, has demonstrated potent bactericidal activity against cariogenic organisms, including S. mutans, while also reducing biofilm formation and preserving oral microbiome balance.
