Brief Summary
|
A Randomized controlled trial was done to assess
the effect of Chlorhexidine-Fluoride gel and Fluoride varnish on active caries
among 9-12 year old school children from 8 schools of Bangalore city. Children
were randomly allocated to 3groups i.e Chlorhexidine-fluoride gel group,
profluoride varnish group and control group. Children who fulfilled the
eligibility criteria were chosen. At the baseline, the children underwent oral
prophylaxis and cavitated lesions were restored with Type II GIC as needed. Active
enamel caries were recorded using Nyvad’s Colleagues criteria (1999).
Supervised tooth brushing was performed weekly thrice for
Chlorhexidine-Fluoride gel group. Profluoride Varnish application was done at
Baseline, 6th month and 12th month and No intervention
was done for control group. The effect of chlorhexidine-fluoirde varnish was
evaluated at 6, 12 and 15 months. |
