Mouthwash study for school children's dental health
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two mouthwashes (one with probiotics and one with a natural ingredient called ethyl lauroyl arginate) to see which is better at reducing cavity-causing bacteria, plaque buildup, and keeping the mouth at a healthy pH level. It may help children between 6 and 12 years old who have mild to moderate plaque.
