Evaluation of anti-calculus efficacy. An SEM method of evaluating the effectiveness of pyrophosphate dentifrice on calculus formation.

P Gaengler1, A Kurbad, W Weinert.   

Abstract

A double-blind, cross-over study was carried out to assess the anti-calculus effectiveness of a pyrophosphate containing cleaning gel. 2 groups of 30 heavy calculus formers were followed up comparing conventional clinical scoring systems (Volpe-Manhold-Index and Marginal-Line-Calculus-Index) and micromorphologic SEM criteria of calculus formation and inhibition. The results indicated that after a 3-month period, there was a significant reduction of calculus formation compared to a placebo gel. The proposed SEM calculus index (SEMCI) objectively reflects the reduction of supragingival calculus formation.
