Objective: The aim of this study was to identity the effect of dentifrice including tocopherol acetate, calcium triphosphate and dental silica on lowering a halitosis.
Methods: Thirty participants with moderate to heavy bad breath between 20 to 50 years employed the specific dentifrice for 4 weeks. Subjects brushed their teeth with the rolling methods three times per day for 3 minutes. Measurement of oral odor was performed at baseline, after 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks.
Results: The B & B checker Value (BBV) by using BB Checker was 72.41±21.26 BBV (baseline), 59.10±22.87 BBV (after 1 week), 58.41±28.84 BBV (after 2 weeks), 47.00±26.32 BBV (after 4 weeks), respectively, and bad breath was significantly reduced at every measurement (p＜0.05). The amount of volatile sulfur compounds decreased at each measurement interval: 4.45±4.93 ng/10 ml (baseline), 2.80±2.44 ng/10 ml (after 1 week), 2.83±2.23 ng/10 ml (after 2 weeks), 2.05±1.18 ng/10 ml (after 4 weeks). There was a statistically significant decrease at 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks compared with baseline (p＜0.05).
Conclusion: The results of the present study supported the fact that the dentifrice including tocopherol acetate, calcium triphosphate and dental silica has a positive effect on lowering a halitosis.
