Effect of triclosan/copolymer‐containing toothpaste on the association between plaque and gingival bleeding: a randomized controlled clinical trial

Abstract

Multivariate multilevel modelling allows the study of fixed and random effects of experimental toothpastes on gingival inflammation in small sample. Triclosan appears to attenuate the causal association between supragingival plaque and gingival bleeding in gingivitis.
