은행엽엑스 함유 세치제의 구강질환 예방효능 평가 연구

Objectives: The study evaluated the effects of dentifrice with the proper amount of ginkgo biloba extract in the prevention of gum disease through clinical trials. Methods: Total sixty volunteers from the experimental group using experimental dentifrice (30 volunteers) and the control group using control dentifrice (30 volunteers) should use the experimental and control dentifrice for 8 weeks. Before the experiment, and 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks after the experiment, the papillary marginal attached gingival Index (the PMA index), Talbott’s gingival index, patient hygiene performance index (PHP index), and Tureski’s dental plaque index test were tested six times. Results: As a result of the PMA index measurement, the experimental and control groups showed statistically significant differences after 6 weeks, and the experimental group showed a significant decrease in the PMA index from 4 weeks after the experiment. The patient hygiene performance index measurement results showed a statistically significant difference between the experimental group and the control group after 4 weeks, and the experimental group showed a significant decrease in the PHP index 2 weeks after the experiment. Conclusions: The use of ginkgo-leaf-extract-containing-dentifrice confirmed that improved dental plaque removal, gingivitis relief, and periodontal disease prevention could be expected.
