Comparing Charcoal and Nylon Toothbrushes for Plaque Removal in Children
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two types of toothbrushes—charcoal and nylon—to see which one removes plaque (sticky buildup on teeth) more effectively in children. Your child will use one type of toothbrush and have their teeth checked at follow-up visits.
