Silver mouthwash vs. standard mouthwash for kids
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests if a silver-based mouthwash is as good as a standard chlorhexidine mouthwash for children with composite fillings on front teeth. It aims to find a mouthwash that kids will accept and use.

This study compares a silver nanoparticle mouthwash to a standard chlorhexidine mouthwash to see which works better at reducing cavity-causing bacteria and improving saliva pH in children aged 6 to 12. If your child is at high risk for cavities, this trial may offer a new option for care.
This trial tests two types of silver liquid (one standard, one with very tiny particles) to see which works better at stopping cavities in baby teeth of young children who are nervous about dental treatment. If your child has cavities in their back baby teeth and is too scared for usual dental work, this may be an option.
This study tests whether sodium fluoride and chlorhexidine (a prescription mouthwash) change certain markers in saliva that may relate to tooth decay in children with cavities. The goal is to understand if these common dental treatments affect the body's natural cavity-fighting substances.
This study tests whether applying a silver fluoride solution once or twice can stop tooth decay in children aged 4 to 6. It may help keep cavities from getting worse without needing fillings.
This study checks if silver-containing agents can help heal early white spots (cavities) on baby teeth of children aged 3 to 8. It compares different silver treatments to see which works best for stopping or reversing these early cavities.
This trial tests if a special mouthwash made from chitosan (a natural substance from shellfish) can prevent black stains from coming back on children's teeth. Kids will use the mouthwash and be checked over 18 weeks to see if it works.
