Brief Summary: A double-blind placebo-controlled randomized cross-over trial evaluating the effect of enzyme-containing lozenge on in vivo and in situ grown dental biofilm accumulation The study includes two phases one each for the investigation of in-vivo and in-situ grown dental biofilm
Detailed Description: Up to 50 subjects aged 18 years old with 3 or more active caries lesion will be randomized to receive

Phase 1 The effect of multiple-enzyme treatment on plaque accumulation in vivo

Phase 1 includes two experimental periods lasting for one day each with a washout period of two weeks in between Each experimental period will include two visits at day 0 and day 1

At day 0 the participants will receive a professional tooth cleaning and be randomized to receive Sequence 1 or Sequence 2 in a double-blind randomized cross-over design

Sequence 1 3 active enzyme-containing lozenges per day for one day app 24h followed by a washout period of two weeks followed by 3 identical placebo lozenges per day for one day app 24h

Sequence 2 3 placebo lozenges per day for one day app 24h followed by a washout period of two weeks followed by 3 identical active enzyme lozenges per day for one day app 24h

The participants will be instructed to take one lozenge three times morning noon evening for one day No normal oral hygiene procedures will be allowed during the intervention periods of one day At the end of both experimental phases plaque is assessed using planimetric recordings obtained with an intraoral camera and TM-QHPI to provide information on the individual level of plaque formation

Phase 2 The effect of multiple-enzyme treatment on in situ-grown biofilms

The phase is designed in a double-blind randomized cross-over design including two experimental periods lasting for 2 days with a washout period of 5 days in between Each experimental period will include two visits on day 0 and day 2 Oral biofilms will be grown in situ on prefabricated non-fluorescent glass slabs for 48 hours The glass slabs will be mounted on the individual lower-jaw splints

At day 0 the participants will be randomized to receive Sequence 1 or Sequence 2

Sequence 1 3 active enzyme-containing lozenges per day for 2 days followed by a washout period of 5 days followed by 3 identical placebo lozenges per day for 2 days

Sequence 2 3 placebo lozenges per day for 2 days followed by a washout period of 5 days followed by 3 identical active enzyme lozenges per day for 2 days

Oral biofilms will be grown in situ on prefabricated non-fluorescent glass slabs for 2-4 experimental periods of 48 hours After each experimental period the in situ-grown biofilms will be collected and stored in a research biobank
