The subjects were given two types of toothpaste, with and without Kayu Sugi extract to be used in the first and </em><span style="font-family: Tribune-Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>second session separately. The subjects were polished and plaque score were measured after one hour for the first quadrant, two </em><span style="font-family: Tribune-Italic; font-size: 9pt; color: #231f20; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;"><em>hours later for the second quadrant and after four hours for the third/fourth quadrant.
