Brief Summary   This Randomized Controlled Trial will be conducted for a period of ten days on 20 randomly selected patients having mild to moderate gingivitis allocated into two groups - 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash  and oralife mouthwash, ten in each group.  Unstimulated saliva samples will be  collected before rinsing with mouthwash, immediately after rinsing with mouthwash and one hour after using mouthwash and on eleventh day after usage of mouthwash 5ml twice daily for ten days. Sample will be examined in laboratory for microbiological assessment to measure the bacterial load and candida albicans.
