BIOCRAN (Craniofacial Biology) Research Group, University Complutense, Madrid, Spain.
Aim: The aim of this network meta-analysis (NMA) was to compare the efficacy of different oral hygiene products for chemical biofilm control, in 6-month home-use, randomized clinical trials (RCTs), in terms of changes in gingival index (GI).
Material And Methods: Six-month RCTs assessing GI were identified and screened for inclusion. Relevant information was extracted, and quality and potential risk of bias were estimated.
Unlabelled: Some lactobacilli strains are used as probiotics in food industry and in dietary supplements. Eight lactobacilli strains, originated from the stomach of the lamb and goatling, are tested for their potential use in human and/or veterinary medicine in our department. Sanguinarine is a major alkaloid of Papaveraceae suspension cultures.

Periodontal Department, King's College School of Medicine and Dentistry, Denmark Hill, London.
This review considers the main agents which have been used as antibacterial agents in mouthwashes and other vehicles to inhibit the growth of supragingival plaque. The agents discussed are bisguanide antiseptics, quaternary ammonium compounds, phenolic antiseptics, hexetidine, povidone iodine, triclosan, delmopinol, salifluor, metal ions, sanguinarine, propolis and oxygenating agents. The plaque inhibitory, anti-plaque and anti-gingivitis properties of these agents are considered along with their substantivity, safety and possible clinical usefulness.

Department of Dentistry, University of Queensland.
In the treatment of periodontal disease initial therapy aims at reducing marginal inflammation so allowing assessment of residual disease and further treatment options. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the use of a dentifrice and oral rinse containing sanguinaria extract led to a more rapid resolution of gingival inflammation following initial therapy. Thirty-four subjects, randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups, took part in this randomized double-blind parallel study.
