Description
Summary:<span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>Thirty male subjects aged around 20-30 years old, with complete anterior teeth, no inter proximal caries and good general health </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>conditions were selected by using simple random sampling. The anterior teeth were divided into 2 segments right side for 11, 12, 13 </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>and left side for 21, 22, and 23. These two sites were treated by different way for comparing two treatment variables, between </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>scaling therapy alone and scaling therapy with adjunction of Chlorhexidine (CHX) 0.2%. Gingival Index (GI) score was used to </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>determine the gingivitis status of the subjects. Clinical experiment showed that the duration of healing process in subjects treated </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>with scaling with adjunction of CHX 0.2% was faster than scaling therapy alone group. However, in the statistical analysis, there </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>was no significant difference because of several factors. In conclusion, it was found that CHX 0.2% had the efficacy to enhance the </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>healing process in the marginal gingivitis patient that was treated by scaling therapy, but further study using CHX 0.2% with longer </em><span style="font-family: Tribune,Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>duration time should be done to achieve more pronounce effect</em></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" /></span>
