Effects of a toothpaste containing 0.3% triclosan on periodontal parameters of subjects enrolled in a regular maintenance program: A secondary analysis of a 2-year randomized clinical trial.

Background: The triclosan-containing dentifrices are effective in controlling biofilm formation and maintaining gingival health; however, there is limited information on their effects during the periodontal maintenance phase. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical effects of a toothpaste containing 0.3% triclosan on the periodontal parameters of subjects that have been treated for peri-implantitis and were enrolled in a regular maintenance program.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of a toothpaste containing 0.3% triclosan in volunteers that have been treated for peri-implantitis and were enrolled in a maintenance program.

Material And Methods: Subjects presenting at least one implant with peri-implantitis were selected.
