[0.1% chlorhexidine mouthwash for gingival inflammation in diabetic adults: double blind study].
The effects of a program of 0.1% chlorhexidine mouthrinse was studied on diabetic adult patients with periodontal disease. The experimental group consisted of 19 diabetic patients on the chlorhexidine regime, while the control group of 21 patients used a placebo mouthrinse. The effects were measured utilizing the plaque index, gingival index and pocket depths. The results showed a significant improvement in gingival inflammation and pockets depths in the experimental (chlorhexidine) group.
