First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a mouthwash containing O-cymen-5-ol, an antiplaque ingredient, disrupts the natural balance of bacteria in the mouth. Healthy women aged 18 to 35 use the mouthwash twice daily for 28 days. Researchers compare its effects on tongue and saliva microbes against other mouthwashes to see if it fights plaque without harming the oral ecosystem.
