Abstract
This study of 171 subjects compared the effectiveness of a patient-applied salt and peroxide oral hygiene regimen with the use of conventional oral hygiene methods on clinical measures of periodontal disease, and determined patient compliance with and acceptance of using these two oral hygiene regimens. Results indicated that both regimens, when combined with professional care, were effective in changing clinical measures of periodontal disease to a state favoring periodontal health.
