Experimental: essential oils and ELA
The participants were instructed to insert the tooth guard in Q1 every time they brushed their teeth and to perform a mechanical oral hygiene routine twice a day in the three other quadrants. After brushing properly, they were instructed to rinse for 30s with water before removing the tooth guard. And then rinse again for 30s with water without the mouth guard. Following this procedure the participants rinsed, as instructed, with the Experimental solution, Listerine Gum Therapy. This oral hygiene routine was repeated for 21d.
